One Giant Snowball

by Julia London

I know you guys have heard me complain about the half wall between my kitchen and living area that I despise.  It doesn’t serve any purpose but to block the sight of people in the living room, and to block the sight of people in the kitchen.  Tell me how ridiculous this is: So I [...]

Tequila!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Is there any better way to welcome Monday? Kidding. I started with a breakfast smoothie, tequila free. Check out Smoothies 101 at my other blog, Sherri and Charlotte.  But Saturday was Cinco de Mayo and Kentucky Derby Day, and both occasions called for celebration here at Casa Erwin. Especially with my dad staying with me [...]

Picture of an actual, on-sale-now romance novel

It’s Friday, I can’t think of anything to blog about.  No thoughtful topics, no celebrity crushes, no products I’d like to endorse.  I have two thoughts in mind today:  WHY must Moose lick himself so much?  The other thought is about all the things I need to do the book I am writing, and the [...]

In college, I hung out with a big circle of friends.  I had a crush on one of the guys, but I never told him. Maybe because he had a girlfriend, or maybe because I was afraid I would ruin the friendship.  There was another guy in our group who finally confessed one night at [...]

I Give Madonna Props

by Julia London

There are a lot of people talking about Madonna’s half time performance at the Super Bowl on Sunday.  Was it the best show ever?  No.  But I thought it was pretty good as those things go.  Is she the best half-time performer ever?  I don’t think so, but I couldn’t tell you who’s done better.  [...]

by Julia London

There is something bugging me, and it’s the phrase, “At the end of the day.”   You hear it on TV, you hear it a LOT in presidential debates.  You hear it from friends, read it in papers and, if you’re like me, you say it.  At the end of the day, we are going to [...]

I was at the hair salon the other day, flipping through US Weekly, and I came to the Who Wears it Best? page.  The two actress both had on a dress that was bright orange on top and bright pink on the bottom.  Interesting, I thought.  And then I read that color-blocking is the hot [...]

When I was growing up, Santa generally delivered one great gift, an orange, and some underwear or socks.  Mom and Dad came through with some extra gifts, and we four kids were expected to get our parents and sibling small gifts, and enjoy it, by God.  Ha!

Someone recently told me about the Stiletto Stampede, at which you do a 100 yard dash in stilettos.  I told this person that I could have done it many years ago.  I wore heels every day, and I would run to catch the yellow line into DC.   No one believes me now. But those days [...]
