Period Movies Coming Later in 2012: Wuthering Heights and Anna Karenina

While researching upcoming horror movies for the rest of 2012 for Haunt Jaunts, I came across a couple of period movies that also appealed to me: Wuthering Heights and Anna Karenina. (I’m really not partial to only one kind of movie. I like all types. Chick flicks, action and adventure, comedy, horror…as long as...

Internet Shopping 01

I’m actually really not much of a shopper. Every once in a while I’ll get the itch, but mostly I’m a “shop only when  I need something” kind of girl. I’m definitely not a shop ’til you drop one. I drop pretty fast because I get bored really quick. However, there is one exception:...

When we went to Istanbul, there were stray cats and dogs all over. I had been warned in advance cats sort of ran Turkey. I was afraid I’d spend the majority of the time being heartbroken and wanting to find them homes. I thought it’d be like the strays here where people mostly overlook...

Playing in Puddles

  I have a pair of green rain boots with white polka dots  (which I refer to as my wellies) that I’ve had for years now. It’s a fun way to walk in the rain…or snow. I’ve been known to use them to navigate that as well. I’m currently on the lookout for a...

Whitney: Loving the relationship topics this show talks about

I wasn’t sure I’d like Whitney. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s both a show on NBC and a person. Whitney Cummings is the star. It’s turned into one of the shows I look forward to watching every week. Whitney (both the show and the girl) crack me up! I usually feel sorry...

How do you plan to spend your Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (a.k.a. Feb 29)?

OMG! There ARE photographers who do retro pin-up type shoots!

I’m so excited. The past year or so I’ve been thinking it’d be cool to get my photo taken professionally. Not exactly a glamor shot, but maybe a sort of boudoir photography thing with a retro vibe. It doesn’t have to be sexy. Mostly I wanted to do something fun and different, but I...

Featured Friday: The Pendants & Magnets of Fun, Funky, Warm & Fuzzy

My sister Dinell recently opened an Etsy shop called Fun, Funky, Warm & Fuzzy. I’m giving it an “F” —for Fabulous! Yes, she’s my kin, and I’m supposed to be encouraging and supportive. You may think that’s why I’m writing about her pendants and magnets for Featured Friday. You’d be thinking wrong. She did...
