The HOTY and I had the great and good fortune to hear Mumford and Sons on our anniversary trip to Carmel. When they played this song, I melted because I felt like this is exactly what the HOTY (a/k/a Husband Of The Year) did for me while I was sick (Silver Lining).

Fall's Fabulous Folios
Did you know that the publishing industry has seasons? Indeed it does. The fall is my most favorite of the book publishing seasons! Actually, come to think of it, fall is my most favorite season — period.

Giving: Army of Women
Recently I had the great good fortune to learn about the Dr. Susan Love Army of Women Program. Wowsy bowsy. It’s really amazing and I am so excited to share it with you!

As the October issue of Vogue hits the newsstands, I’m reminded of how excited the HOTY and I get about fall films.

Family Dinners
A couple of weeks ago, I told you about the importance of family dinners in our family. We love them and are committed to them at least four nights a week. I know that puts us out up to three nights a week, and that sounds like a lot, but there are some weeks with a… Continue reading Family Dinners
Fall Fashion: The LBD
As we begin to move from the bright whites of summer into the darker palate of fall, I find myself drawn to the classic Little Black Dress (LBD). I’m such a fan of the LBD. It’s one of those pieces in my closet that I turn to whenever I want to feel comfortable, elegant, sophisticated… Continue reading Fall Fashion: The LBD
