Caroline Elopes!

So another one of my girlfriends (in fact my Maid of Honor in my wedding) is now off the market! Last night, night we celebrated Caroline and Minh's 12.13.14 elopement (in Park City Utah) at the truly fabulous Faith and Flower Restaurant downtown. Our party of 10 included the bride and groom, hubs and I, Amy and Larry, Jon and Danielle, Jung and Toby who came down from Northern California for the night. Faith and Flower was a really nice place, with a 1929's atmosphere and really tasty, if not incredibly expensive food. It was recommended to me by my foodie friend, Rodeline, after giving her some info about our night. After two hours of dinning family style with such dishes as Oxtail Agnolotti, Deviled Jidori Eggs, Ny Steak Tartare, Confeit Duck Leg, Grilled Broccolini, Burrata Pizza, Roasted Mushroom Pizza, Sauteed Blue Lake Green Beans, and Kanpachi Ceviche and partaking in fun drinks like the Harry Winston (think Japanese whiskey on a square block of ice) or English Milk Punch or Lemon & Thyme, we all found ourselves full, except for Regul who was partaking in a hunger strike. After dinner, the gang took some pictures next door with some expensive crystals and took selfies on this fancy couch. I am not sure what exactly the place was but we all just followed Amy who seemed to know what the place was and luckily the security guard watching the crystals didn't yell at us. Later everyone drove back to our house to have some celebratory cake, to partake in a nice 2004 Dom Perignon champaign, and to take shots of McCallan 12-Year old Fine Oak Whiskey (the groom's favorite). The evening was full of laughs, unexpected Wedding Mad Lips voiced by Regul, fun photo signs and split screen karaoke courtesy of Amy with a surprising lack of Journey songs available to sing.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
