Hi Everyone! I know…I know…it’s been a while. Honestly, I’ve been busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest. I’ve REALLY missed blogging and am trying to figure how I can STILL maintain a presence; after all, the blog was my first love and it serves as a foundation for EVERYTHING that I’ve been able to accomplish including lavish!, [...]
This weekend, I’ll be enjoying an outdoor concert with the most delightful group of girlfriends, including bloggers My Brown Baby and True Southern Elegance. We’ve been anticipating this outing for a couple of months now and we could not be more excited. As I am addicted to most any maxi dress that’s actually long enough (remember: I’m nearly 6 feet [...]
…and that is all. Do y’all? My DVR is a tad lighter and my 4 PM each weekday is empty without Aunt Oprah. She’s promised us that she’s working on dynamic programming at OWN and I can’t wait to hear what’s up her sleeves (and how about that L’Wren Scott dress that she wore on the last show? *faints*). While [...]
Last week, I was invited to an advance screening of the much anticipated movie, The Help, (surely you’ve heard of it…unless you’ve been under a boulder, that is) which was based on the novel with the same name. I have been a fan of the author, Kathryn Stockett and the book since I read it. I’ve told anyone who [...]
Over the summer while I have NOT been blogging (*pops own hand*), I’ve become a pseudo mixologist. There are so many fantastic cocktails and who am I not to offer of my taste buds. I LOVE searching the internet for new ideas. I must admit that Saveur has been one of my go-to spots for concoctions to help me survive [...]
Alesya Bags – Laptop Bag Demo from The Modern Connection on Vimeo. Surely everyone remembers how much I absolutely gasp. swoon. faint. over delicious bags. Everyone is nodding, right? Of course you are! Last December at my lavish! conference, I had the pleasure of meeting one of the most dynamic bloggers, business women and all around cool girl, Alesya Macatol. [...]
So what do you think? Have you looked around here a bit? Cool, right? Well, let me tell you. I surely have missed everyone over the past 5 months. My respite from blogging was absolutely, positively necessary. I KNOW that I am stepping back into THIS space more rested (bloggers need downtime, too, you know?) and with a much [...]
I was watching the pilot for The Chicago Code last night when a Blackberry App World commercial ad. Never have I seen such an influential brand highlight the importance/reality of blogging. Take a gander at the clip below. I must say that it gave me chills. Don’t get me wrong…I think these “food bloggers” are supposed to be Every Blogger. [...]
You are a working mom to eight year old twins. Your next door neighbor has a daughter in their class. You’ve been paying for aftercare and are OK with doing so. One day, your neighbor approaches you and offers to let your kids get off of the bus at her house. After all, she’s a stay-at-home mom and will be [...]
My friend, Brady, posted this video of Bethenney Frankel’s dishing about a healthy Super Bowl spread. Dare I say this all sounds pretty good? What’s on YOUR Super Bowl Menu?
