Ladies and gents and four-legged friends… The cat (or dog) is out of the bag. I just sent out an email to various writers, friends and colleagues announcing my new magazine. A while back, I mentioned that I had an idea about what to name it, and I’ve moved forward...
My boss here at MC is super awesome and she’s recently been doing a little redecorating, finally getting settled and making her desk her own. I picked up a bunch of cute brocade stuff from The Containter Store for her, and last week she showed me this adorable mug she...
I once messed up a box of Kraft Mac N Cheese. I am an absolutely hopeless cause when it comes to working in the kitchen. But that isn’t to say I don’t have a passion for it. If and when I devote the time (money) and effort to it, I...
I did finally manage to get my hair cut last week and will upload pictures as soon as my phone decides to come out of its coma. To accessorize my new “glorified mom cut” (as I’ve deemed it), I’ve been browsing etsy looking at headbands and clips and new fun...
I’ve been spending my morning looking up crazy holidays that no one ever celebrates. I love using them as tie-ins for stories and they oftentimes prompt good story ideas, anyway. I know I’m way ahead of the game here, but May 9th is apparently Tear the Tags Off the Mattress...

If I feel so inclined, I might have two obsession posts today… especially given that I didn’t do one yesterday. Things just got a little hectic toward the end of day at work (I had to call every store in Manhattan on a rabid search for pom poms. It was...
I wake up to about a billion emails a day. And by a billion, I mean a dozen. But whatever. Though I delete most of my morning emails, I don’t deny their awesomeness. I receive tons of discount emails and when they don’t make me feel poor (60% off of...
I think I’ve mentioned before the camp I went to this summer with my dad and my little brother. It was empowering an thoroughly enjoyable. The theme of the camp kind of revolved around some Native American imagery and how we, as dedicated individuals, could harness the “warrior” within. I’d...
I’ve been experimenting with a couple of different looks. I just scheduled a hair appointment on Tuesday and I’m literally going to walk into the salon (at 8 a.m. Woof.) and be a human canvas. I’m ready for a change. And a lighter load. My haircut rules: If you cut...
