Busy Buzzy Bumblebee.
The key to Riley’s heart these days? Robots. More specifically Transformers. So when my friends at Paramount reached out and asked if I’d be interested in reviewing the new Bumblebee movie and receiving a fun gift kit, I did not hesitate to say YESSSSSSS. Fast forward to a week later and a magical box of […]

Gnome is Where the Heart is.
Riley’s at this really great age where all new TV shows and movies are the most amazing thing to him. So when I told him we had a new movie to watch last week, dude was all about it. He hasn’t seen Gnomeo and Juliet yet, but I figured he’d be okay missing some plot points […]

Fun with Monster Trucks.
As I mentioned in my last post, one of the quickest ways to my child’s heart: TRUCKS. So when I was invited to the Paramount lot for a press event for the movie Monster Trucks, I jumped at the chance. Riley and I got to visit some friends, hang out on the lot, have some lunch […]

My Golden Globes Train of Thought.*

KATE WINSLET WINS! (I guess I should go watch Steve Jobs). But really, HURRAY KATE! And why is there no reaction shot […]

My TV Binge.
You guys. I have a confession to make. Since I was laid off in November and have essentially been home since then, I’ve binge watched a lot of television. Like an almost embarrassing amount. And I feel like I should share it with you all. House of Cards. When the newest season came out I […]

Dear Keanu.
Dear Keanu, This year marks our twenty year meet-cute*. TWENTY. I remember the day where I was reluctantly dragged to see SPEED on the big screen, complaining that it wasn’t my kind of movie. Oh, how wrong I was. Not only was it my kind of movie, it became MY MOVIE. Honestly, my name is practically […]
