Hammy Turns 2!
So, today marks 2 years since I met one of my greatest companions ever. He’s been my cuddler, a terror, a loud brat, a baby with big eyes when he doesn’t feel well, my over sized stuffed animal, my buddy when I felt like poo, […]

Grand Cercle Des Vins De Bordeaux Tasting Event! #WineWednesday
Last week I was invited out to the gorgeous Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills for Grand Cercle Des Vins De Bordeaux Tasting Event. While I have been becoming more of a wine person in the past few years, I definitely always gravitate towards reds, so a […]

I’m incredibly excited to introduce you today to a wonderful multi-talented musician that goes by the name Le Bas-fond.

Damien Rice: A One Man Powerhouse.
Damien Rice is a force to be reckoned with. Having seen him before, back with Fiona Apple on her 2006 Extraordinary Machine tour, I thought I had an idea of what to expect since his songs on record come across quite lush & mellow, then, […]
Currently: Week in Review Edition.
When Michael recommended I start a “Week in Review” series, I was skeptical. Despite I write about my life all the time, I don’t want to come across like I am boasting…or, is that inevitable, being a writer?? I will let you be the judge […]
Downtown LA Walking Tours!
Remember when I visited The Last Bookstore in Downtown Los Angeles? Walking a few blocks to get there, I was taken a back at how gorgeous & historic it felt to walk along those streets. I easily could have been in a well-loved city like […]
Damien Rice at The Greek this Friday!
Damien Rice has been such a breath of fresh air to the sometimes overly pop & “indy” music line up on the radio. Since hitting the scene in 2002 with his magnificent debut album, O, featuring the hit, The Blower’s Daughter (featured in the Oscar […]
Pasadena Sparkles with One Starry Night.
On Monday evening, I had the incredible privilege of covering One Starry Night: A Special Performance Dedicated to Conquering ALS. Having been last year to this fantastic spectacle, produced by Jonathan White, Juliana Hansen, Melissa Verdugo & Patrick McMinn, I felt I had an idea of […]
Star Wars Celebration 2015!
I have long-awaited attending a “Con”: Comic-Con, Wonder Con, you get my idea. Translation: a nerds galore weekend filled with costumes, dudes proudly wearing a lanyard decked out with pins, and being able to eavesdrop on a conversation I may not fully understand but still […]

(Editor’s Note: In this new ongoing series of posts, I am going to attempt to visit all 18 places featured in this BuzzFeed article & write about my experience at each destination. Kicking it off, is my awesome trip out to The Last Bookstore. I […]
Pink is NOT Fat.
As someone who has a strong interest in women’s issues, I feel compelled to give my 2 cents about Pink (Does she still spell it with an exclamation point??) & the recent brouhaha about her weight. As I read her response to critics thinking she […]
Ways to be KIND & Giveaway ends 4-26!
Its pretty cool how I was introduced to KIND bars, one of my favorite go-to snacks; a few years ago I was going to hanging out with a friend & in-case I had not yet had any dinner, he brought me a KIND bar, noting […]
