I’m assuming that everyone is watching The Golden’s tonight…you know, the award show where, if you win, you say “I’d like to thank the Hollywood Foreign press”…and not all those folks who plop down hard earned cash to go see some of this slop.
If there is one person I want to win, it is Meryl […]
I came across these electric boot warmers recently, and it took me a bit to figure out what they do…they dry your wet and freezing boots.
Great gadget. The only problem is that here in the eastern portion of the U.S., the temperature hasn’t been cold enough outside to cool off a beer…never, mind […]
I thought it would be appropriate to reflect on the elegance, power, grace and courage of Dr. King’s historic “I Have A Dream Speech”, before the Lincoln Memorial, in Washington, D.C.
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the […]
Don’t celebrities who shop in vintage clothing stores make it sound so cool?
I hate it. I am a department store gal.
Why do I sound like such a snob? Aside from the fact that most of these shops are messy and chaotic, the biggest shopping challenge I face is my size. (Plus I do […]
Consider these key paragraphs in Fortune Magazine’s infamous — The 100 Best Companies To Work For Issue:
At Google it always comes back to the food. Google runs 11 free gourmet cafeterias at its Mountain View, Calif., headquarters, and offers all its employees free gourmet meals.
In addition to its cafés, Google has snack rooms […]
We’ve been married for more than 20 years — a veritable “long and winding road”, and for some reason lately, I’ve been thinking about all of the little things in our relationship that make our little world so special.
When we were newlyweds, I had it in my head that the wife is supposed to know […]
I thought the holidays were over after all of the hoopla around our new Apple iMac — joint Christmas present.
But no.
Today, from the world’s largest Apple-phile I know, I received many, many e-mails about the announcement of Apple’s new and very chic iPhone and soon to follow the long- awaited (in our house) […]
If one of your goals in the upcoming year is to give more of your time and, possibly, money to charitable groups — that’s just fabulous.
Here’s a fun and fashionable way to donate to Heart Disease Awareness: SHOP!
There are many fashion companies that support heart disease by offering donations to organizations such as American […]
/>Oh…I just can’t take it any more…when am I ever going to know about a trend in this city before the freaking New York Times tells me it’s a trend…which in NYC chronology the trend will be passe in an hour.
Not only do we have to know what the current it […]
Those of you who have dogs, understand how tedious it can be to keep the house hair-free…and also, whoever invented the Swiffer is a genius. (It’s really just a fancy paper towel, right?)
My life, especially my business, revolves around my preposterous and boundless love for my Chocolate Labrador Retriever, Trotter.
Trotter is a lovely dog, […]
I promise I’ll stop whining about how sick I’ve been lately…but I think now I’m becoming a little wacko.
Sometimes, for me, a very bad cold can take on some characteristics of depression…so there’s a few things I try to avoid thinking about when I’m sick as I have been, since New Year’s eve:
I try not […]
If I were a smart blogger, I would have created a survey which would help determine the eating habits of small home business owners.
However, it would probably depress me…because, I think most of us in this category don’t eat as well as we should.
I know I don’t — which is weird because I’m kind of […]
While wandering around the great ocean of blogs known as My Blog Log, I stumbled upon a small business site on which resided an article by the Gallup Management Journal.
Here is the headline text that so harshly welcomed me to 2007:
Yikes!
Here is a portion of the excerpt that had me examining my strengths […]
The U.S. financial markets and all federal businesses were closed today, as a national day of respect and mourning for the late President Ford.
That means is if you are a financial trader, a postal worker, an FBI agent, a cook in the White House or any other GOVERNMENT employee, you legitimately got the day off.
My […]
Farewell, Mr. President,
…From Sea To Shining Sea…
You were our Sweet Spot.
