Five Nuns Go To A Bar…

Sisters Mary Catherine, Maria Theresa, Katherine Marie, Rose Frances & Mary Kathleen left the Convent on a trip to St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City and were sightseeing on a Tuesday in July.  It was hot and  humid in town and their traditional garb was making them so uncomfortable, they decided to stop in [...]




Christina Loves…Alltop

Way back when, when Alltop first started, and the beauty page at Alltop was born, my old beauty blog was one of the first listed.  How the heck did I get there?  I dunno, but apparently someone working at Alltop thought it was a great blog.  It was, BTW, if for no other reason than [...]




Are You Aging Along With The Rest Of Us? I Think You Are. Unless Your Last Name Is Cullen.

For what seems like forever – really since I was quite young, I have been thinking about aging.  Not only about myself, but about others, and our aging population.  I am not quite a baby boomer, but I have many, many friends who are, and I have always felt strongly that I would do something [...]




Tina Craig Interviews Michael Kors

Tina is a good friend and the mistress of WebSnob, and Snob Media (perhaps you’ve seen BagSnob, BeautySnob, CoutureSnob, TotSnob?), and has done a really charming interview with Michael Kors.  I know you love him too (how could you not?), and you will love this interview.  Tina is adorable and she and Michael carry on [...]

From Beautyfix 1: MLab Anti Aging Treatment Cream

This was my first experience using MLab products.  I have had my eyeballs on them for quite a little while, but have never forked over the money to try it.  I have several friends who rave about the MLab eye cream, and, well, frankly I try so many eye creams that it surprises me when [...]




Get Your Vote On Today

I stay far, far away from the topic of politics here, there and everywhere.  I hate it.  I don’t like talking about it (because I am a terrible debater), you will never catch me writing about it,  and Lord knows I’m not going to watch a movie about it. I do, however vote.  Every time.  [...]

WebSnob: Formerly the Halloween Edition, now the I’m So Behind Edition November 3, 2008

Yeah, Friday.  Seems so long ago!  Here come my excuses – Halloween Party for (sick) daughter, Father in law diagnosed with encephalopathy needing round the clock care.  To say its been a maddening and long weekend is a gross understatement.  But in the grand scheme of things, all is well, I am just behind.  So [...]
