This weekend helped to make a dent in my list of Places to Go/Things to Do as I was able to check two places off my list: the Huntington Gardens and Getty Villa. In addition to the beautiful scenery, it was time well spent with friends. (And fortunately friends who did not mind all the...

Soul Mates
Hey friends, just thought you should know I’m off the market. This weekend I found my Mr. Right and he just happens to own a sweet little place in Malibu. I may move in with him. He’s my soul mate.
Jets vs Sharks
In a cross-town rivalry to, well, rival that of the Jets & the Sharks, I’m proud to say that Clifton Middle School–my alma mater–kicked butt against Santa Fe (known as ‘Santa Flushers’ when I was at Clifton) in the last game of the girl’s soccer season. Bailey (aka. Soccer All-Star Girl) rocked it like she...
Tibetan Personality Test
I recently received an email, which included a link to a “Tibetan Personality Test.” I’m a sucker for personality tests; have been for years. What amazing tools of new & interesting discoveries! And self-knowledge! And narcissism! Gotta love anything where you get to think about yourself, answer questions about yourself and read about yourself, right?...
2 Items of Business:
#1 For those of you interested in keeping up with what Hugo & I Spy… but who don’t want to have another blog to check daily only to find out there is nothing new, note the latest feature/image at the top left of the main page. When I’ve added something new, I’ll put up an...
E’s 30th Birthday…Bluezz style
A group gathered at Red White & Bluezz last night to celebrate my friend Esther’s arrival to the 30-something club. (Familiar faces may include Charlyn and her boyfriend Adam, and of course Esther & her hubby Scott.) She reached this milestone with poise, wit and sass, as is customary for this NY transplant. Welcome to...
"The art of the bow & arrow"
A while back I got a wild hair to investigate whether there were any archery clubs in the area. (This may or may not have been following an Emma viewing–Gwyneth Paltrow version–I can’t be sure.) Through my searching I found the Pasadena Roving Archers that offers free classes to 1st-timers (equipment provided, $5 donation for...
Snug as a Bug in a Rug
Anyone else fall in love with the Moorish Tile Rugs featured on the cover of the latest PB catalog? Oh my. I can’t decide which I like better: Clementine or Pineapple.
Easter Brunch & Golf
With BAM moving to Portland next month and me to Chicago this summer, we spent what will likely be the last Easter together as a family for some time. It required that we stuff ourselves at the buffet at Glendora Country Club, encourage our kiddos to get all the eggs in the egg hunt before...
Places to Go: Monrovia Street Fair
Before attending a Good Friday service with Denise & Matt at my childhood church COD, I roamed the Monrovia Street Fair. (Did you know it’s the largest of it’s kind in the entire state?)With all the goodies one can come home with, buying only fresh Orange/Pomegranate juice, alfalfa honey & a funnel cake showed great...
