This blog is brought to you by my smart friend Robyn. She SINGLE-handedly did the unthinkable and got a quote from Jenna Bush and Harry Hager’s cake chick explaining why the cake was a little tipsy. Can you imagine this? Robyn scooped CNN, E!, Extra, Everyone. Here’s the quote little […]

Lord, forgive me for posting this on the Sabbath, but I just cannot resist: Who am I? I talk with a lisp, wear bow ties, cannot embrace my gayness no matter how “out” I really am. I pitched, b–ched and pimped out my entire wedding for publicity and the love […]

I must admit that kelly green has not always been my favorite color. But lately I have gone through this Lily Pulitzer pink and green fascination and now I guess I like kelly green. I found this great photo in Domino of a kelly green kitchen. (The color is called […]

I realize that it’s not Halloween but who cares. I just saw this product on the Food Network Show, Unwrapped, and I think it’s fun and fabulous. This guy has a great website featuring the world’s first “Special Effects Cookbook” where he sells a kit for $19.95 called the Eat […]

Everything Jonathan Adler does just physically pains me. Yes, I’m sorry to admit but I am back on the throw pillow obsession. I don’t needlepoint but this pillow makes me wish I did. How fabulous to take an old-ish art form like needlepoint and make it rock star cool with […]

I just got a great email from my friend, Merri Jill, telling me about a cool new site/concept. Check out the 29 Day Giving Challenge: The goal is to inspire at least 2,000 people (hopefully more) to give away one item a day for 29 consecutive days and share how […]
