Dear Storeowners,

Dear Storeowners,Today is July 21st, which means that it has been summer for one month. Why then, have you put away all your beach towels? I need some new towels, you know, for the beach, since it’s … summer. So Target, TJ Maxx, BJ’s, and Marshall’s, try putting away the school supplies and backpacks and putting out some beach towels because IT’S JULY.continue...See More

Jenny Post commented on the blog post 'How Do You Become a Bestseller like The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo?'
"I definitely agree that the beginning of the book drags. A lot. But after that I couldn't put it down! While I don't think it was particularly well written (the male author speaking for the female protagonist was way off) and the Swedish…"

Writing About Students/Work

All of us have those hilarious student stories, silly things the kids (or adults) said or ridiculous answers written on tests and in essays. Do you ever write about these? I guess this question is specifically geared toward personal writers or bloggers. If the stories are harmless and anonymous, is it ok to write about work?

Today is July 21st, which means that it has been summer for one month. Why then, have you put away all your beach towels? I need some new towels, you know, for the beach, since it’s … summer.

Ladies Who Lunch

Posted on July 18, 2010 at 6:16am 0 Comments

Being off for the summer has its obvious perks. One that often goes unnoticed is that you’re given this insider glimpse at what life is like for “ladies who lunch.” Most ladies who lunch don’t drive Hyundais, but still, I’m driving that baby to lunch on a weekday!



I met my friend Katrina for lunch at Graffiti in Woodbury. Delicious! Don’t be put off by the website; it’s a little ghetto but you should absolutely check… Continue

Hopefully, the second time is a charm

Posted on July 18, 2010 at 6:13am 0 Comments

For the second time in the last few months, my friend Liz's daughter Katie has found herself in a bit of a predicament. And by predicament, I mean with her head lodged in a toilet seat. The first time resulted in a visit from the fire department who used KY Jelly to free her. This time, Liz used some butter to do the same job, but not before snapping a picture. Ahhhh, children.…

What I'm Reading - The Angel's Game

Posted on July 18, 2010 at 6:10am 0 Comments

With hopes that I'll be a diligent book clubber this year, I've started our summer read, The Angel's Game. Written by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, it's a supernatural-ish mystery set in Barcelona in the early 20th century. Zafon also wrote The Shadow of the Wind, which I've heard wonderful things about but have not yet read.
