You should wish me a happy birthday. I want to have lots of comments because today I turn the not so magical age of 41. You can do that for me, can’t you? Especially all the foreign readers; you are very tight-lipped. It used to be that I’d wait around for people to make my […]

It’s Makeup Monday! Yay! A few weeks ago I was mentioning something about lipstick to one of my friends and her eight-year old daughter was standing right next to us. “Why do you wear lipstick?” the little girl asked, “you’re pretty enough without it.” I thought that was terribly sweet of her and I didn’t […]
Just so you understand where I’m coming from, I was born and raised in Detroit. My father was born and raised in Detroit. He worked for Ford for most of my life. I have many memories of going down to the huge, ancient Triple E building (where the engineers worked) and feeding the ducks in […]
I haven’t posted on my blog in two weeks. That’s my record. It was due to a couple of things: I was in Utah/Colorado/New Mexico/Texas for over a week; most of the time driving or having fun. Then I came home and realized the my poor laptop is just about deceased. I’m still pouting about […]
These products have all found their way into my garbage can this week. My vote for the most horrid mascara of all time (in case you can’t tell, it’s by Revlon). Not only is is clumpy and globby, but imagine applying your mascara with a twig. Or with a mascara brush that your dog has […]

We have lived in Austin for not quite three years. We all adore it (well, I don’t know if the kids do but who cares what they think) and never want to leave. One of our favorite things about Texas is just . . . that it’s Texas. You can’t believe how much people […]
I’m sort of weird about my feet. I have issues. I don’t like them touched. No pedicures, no massages. I polish them myself and keep them looking just fine, I think–even though my toes are short and stubby and rather like baby carrots. (Last year, though, a nice looking older man came running after […]
Dear Selwyn, Sorry things are so yucky for you right now with the ex being a douche bag. Here is the recipe for the amazingly wonderful Cream Cheese Brownies to help you drown your sorrows. I would send you some but you live in Australia and they would taste wretched by the time they arrived. […]
I neglected to mention that while I was at Round Top a couple of weeks ago I hurt my foot badly. It turns out that I messed up a bunch of ligaments on the top of my right foot but it felt more like I broke my arch in half. Instead of taking it easy […]
Last Friday I was on my weekly Costco trip getting our usual six gallons of milk and a jillion eggs. As I sat and tried to decide whether to buy some canned chicken I had the oddest feeling come over me; it was a feeling that food would be getting very expensive and I would […]
