Party
Sometimes being open to change opens doors to opportunity. When I was gearing up to attend BlogHer last summer, I had a series of expectations of that conference. Though, my expectations were far from met, I adjusted those expectations during the conference. And while I might not jump through hoops to attend another BlogHer conference, I did walk away from the conference with some lastin

Replay
Replay is the name of the game. It’s my weekly post where I review the work of others. How it impacts me. Why I like what they’ve said. No need to reinvent the wheel. After a brief synopsis, I send you on your merry way. And unlike the past few weeks, I’ve got a bunch of things for you to read and enjoy! Happiness! Karen and I respectfully disagree on a lot of things. One of the reasons I like her as a blogger is because she puts thought into what she’s saying. It enables us to intellectually disagree, instead of spewing hateful things to one another because we’re not willing to take a time out to think about why we disagree. With all

I am definitely focused on Thanksgiving, because it is my favorite holiday of the year. Plus, we’re traveling this year, which means I sort of have to pay attention to it ahead of time. But, I might also be getting Christmas fever, oh my. Thanksgiving is the holiday my family celebrates together. Partly because we are Jewish (and never really get together for Chanukah) and partly because all of us children are married to or dating Ch

Married
I’m pretty confident when I say we’ve all wondered about our exes at one time or another. Maybe it’s soon after the break-up to see that new girl he’s dating. Is she as pretty as you? As nice as you? What’s wrong with her? Anything so you can feel a little better about yourself. Maybe it’s months down the road to see if he’s still alive. Is he dating anyone? Did he get that job promotion he’d been vying for? Run that race? Go on that vacation? We want something, anything, to see that he still has a heartbeat. Maybe it’s years later to see if he ever was the marrying type. What does she look like? What does she do? Do the

Inspiration
Project Runway designer Irina Shabayeva might not be my favorite person in the world (in fact, there have been multiple times I’d like to give her a bitch slap or three), however she is by far one of the strongest designers this season. In the latest episode, there was a moment when she accused another (very strong) designer, Althea Harper, of finding
