Kermit Just Doesn’t Give Up
Egads. That frog just doesn’t give up. He’s actually calling me incessantly, and clogging up my inbox with emails and text messages.
And check out the shot he sent me above - as if that will impress me. Really. How shallow does he think I am?
As if being a big huge TV and film star with […]

We Like The Moon…Too
We hope you like the moon too. But not as much as satchels. Or corn.

She promises to finish writing soon.
In the meantime, you can sing this song to friends. Try replacing […]

Back In Toronto Just 2 Days And I Feel The Boredom Creeping In
Oh I know, I know. Sounds just so - ungrateful. And I haven’t even unpacked.
Bingo. That’s the problem. That’s what awaits me: I have to unpack, do laundry, sort receipts, write thankyous etc. Ew.
I’m just not used to doing things for myself anymore. I miss L.A.
Plus I came home and my car has […]

Day 2 - The After Party
Oh my. I got way ahead of myself and wrote about the Hamptons before finishing my story about my trip to LA. Oops. Here then is how Day 2 ended.
Quick recap - we are at the uber swanky Tropicana Bar poolside bar at the Hotel Roosevelt. It’s our last evening together after 2 fun-filled […]

What Happened? I’m In The Hamptons Now
It’s true. I woke up this morning in a cozy down-topped bed, all buffed, waxed and threaded, sporting a great tan - almost as nice as the sprayed-on kind, and with my cell phone lying next to my head, its battery power all drained.
There was only one place I could be - The Hamptons.
Crazy […]

Of course you can.

An even closer-upper.

Day 2 - More LA Parties
After our sightseeing excursion we all went to Vert just off Hollywood Boulevard for dinner. Some of us had oysters, and so the conversation naturally turned to bivalves. My kind of people.
Yums all round at the dinner table. The Elephant Larry guys and The Everyday Goddess raved about their Marjolaine dessert.
Then our table came […]
