Finding Dory
Even though this movie is made for kids, its appeal is universal. Personally, I was laughing harder than some of the tots in the theater…along with Dory-loving big kids and adults. Besides its wit and adorable factor, what I love most about Finding Dory is…well, Dory. She obviously has more challenges than any other sea animal in the show, and …

To The Beach
When I was little, I loved making sand castles. I was one of the first to toddle out to the ocean’s edge, and one of the last to leave. I used to stare at all the little specs of sand, marveling at how there were so many, and yet all of them came together to make up the beautiful beach. …
Brazil’s Ice Hockey Team Places Despite Skills
….like Skating, Turning, and Stopping! Last Sunday, the Penguins, Pittsburgh’s renowned ice hockey team, won the famous Stanley Cup in Rio de Janeiro. The same day, Team Brazil ranked fourth out of six in the much lesser-known Pan-American Hockey Tournament. Normally, these teams and competitions would not be lumped together in the same paragraph, but this year that changed. To …
Hawaiian Escape
Besides the three s’s…surf, sand and sun…one of my favorite activities in Hawaii is meeting the eclectic collection of travelers who come there. Waikiki draws people from around the world, including newlyweds, little families, close friends, and those flying solo who want a spontaneous reprieve between challenging work projects. All of them have something in common…they’re happy to make new …

Recreating Olivia Wilde’s Makeup
This is what I call, “recycling a look.” It’s been a bit since Olivia Wilde painted her face in these stunning burgundy hues, but the picture keeps resurfacing. Today, I’m showing how you can do something similar. My palette is from years ago, but it’s all Bobbi Brown and she is featuring similar hues today. This entire look can be …
The Little Things
I’ve heard people say, “I’ll be happy when…” They finish the statement with “I graduate,” or “I get that job,” or “I get married.” Well, friends, happiness can’t be penciled in on the calendar.
