Wearing Slippers and Drinking Wine from NYC to Wisconsin
As promised, today kicks off my week of “Mindy & Me”, a collection of concerns/happenings that Mindy Kaling and I have in common based on her book, “Is Everyone Handing Out Without Me (and other concerns)“. (I secretly hope she reads one of these, and/or any other posts on my blog, so she can see how […]
MoreIn-home dry cleaning? SIGN ME UP. Too bad it’s $499 at Bloomingdale’s and takes a month to arrive from somewhere across the pond. I’m not sure I dry clean enough to justify buying this, but perhaps having it at home also saves time with ironing? Perhaps I’d actually get INTO caring for my clothes? According to […]
MoreNothing like a mind-blowing hump day! Let me explain… because that sounded bad. So I’m scrolling through my news feed this AM and I stumbled on a shared post, by a friend’s Mom, related to folding fitted sheets. Ah fitted sheets. The most annoying article to pull out of the dryer and fold. How can you […]
MoreRemember that scene in Miss Congeniality after Cheryl bombs her pageant question and she says, “…I was like a female rain man,” and Gracie Hart replies, “Oh, no. It de-defin- de-def-definitely wasn’t rain man. De-definitely wasn’t rain man.” It’s sad to admit but I never understood that reference. I’d never even really known Rain Man […]

Like, will this be my “voice”, demeanor, thought process, lifestyle… into my 30’s/40’s? Because I had that moment […]
MoreWith a birthday around the corner, it’s dawned on me that the years between 25-30 are the happiest and then the scariest. What else am I supposed to think when bloggers like Her 30’s talk about missing being selfish?! I just came into my “selfish” years (I know, late bloomer)… I don’t want them to […]
MoreFunny moment on my flight from NYC to London last week that I just had to share. It was a moment similar to Cady’s thoughts in Mean Girls about her first time at the mall and how it reminded her of being in Africa by a watering hole: I’m on the flight, which I spent 3 […]
MoreI have a warm spot in my heart for Zooey Deschanel. From New Girl back to Almost Famous in the 2000’s, when I actually thought she was Katy Perry for a while, Zooey is just fantastic is her own right. I thought I’d share that love ahead of shouting out her new collab with Tommy Hilfilger […]
