I’m turning 50 this year! I keep thinking about the beginning of last year—I felt energetic and aggressively excited about making big changes. How, I thought, could the year be anything but awesome when I kicked it off with a jumpsuit like that? It wasn’t a bad year. Personally, the year was fine. We did […]
Can You Believe the Holiday Season Is Happening?
It’s that time of year when you don a really itchy wool dress and hang out at a pumpkin patch with your child who doesn’t want to share the giant bunny! Sorry I guess I’m being negative but I have already been to three costume-required events and today there’s one more since it’s mercifully, finally, […]
Beam Me Up
The first time I laid eyes on a Centinelle scarf was at Convert in San Francisco’s Hayes Valley. I was like, TELL ME MORE about this designer, because kitties being beamed into spaceships are things that I need in my life and around my neck. Also glutton seagulls, animal paddle boats and punky donkey unicorns—knowing […]
Hey, Tiger!
Did you know September is Happy Healthy Cat Month? I know, it’s like every month has at least three themes these days. But this one happens to be good timing because we recently got a kitten. And I’m remembering how important diet is for felines. My previous cat was 18 when he died four […]
That Time I Got Punched in the Face
At about 9:40pm on a recent Friday night, I learned what getting punched in the face feels like. I had just watched Gorillaz perform at San Francisco’s Outside Lands Music Festival in Golden Gate Park and was happily walking along Fulton, alone, to my car. I had left early, trying to beat the crowds—and I […]
The Kitten and I Use the Same Colorist
Hey guys! Isn’t it awesome that Wrangler is doing this throwback 70th anniversary collection? It’s one of those Americana companies that I feel a deep nostalgia for. I and all of my friends wore Wrangler jeans when we were kids, and I love these styles that harken back to the 70s. Also, in case you […]
Celebrating the Friendly Mustache for Father’s Day
I have never seen my father without a mustache, except in a few baby photos and in one where he’s part of a human pyramid during the Vietnam War when he (luckily) was stationed in Germany. But when I met him for the first time as he picked up my mom for a blind date (and […]
Father’s Day Gift Guide 2017
If the dad or dads in your life are as difficult to buy for as mine, I feel your struggle. I’ve been scanning the web, my inbox, and my immediate environs for ideas, so I hope I can be of some help. Some of the items here I included in my Forbes Father’s Day gift […]
Matching Outfits and Kindergarten Woes
Frida has a thing for Cheetahs. We’re not exactly sure where it came from but she likes to call people “bellybutton cheetah famous,” and we still haven’t figured out if it’s an insult or a compliment. So when I saw this pair of outfits from Nooworks, how could I resist? I never pegged myself as […]
Brighten Up Your Jungalow With Colorful Baskets
I’ve been filling up our house with plants, and in turn purchasing many baskets in which to place them. I love the jungalow look my living room is getting with so much greenery around, and the bonus is I’ve managed to keep most of the plants alive for a year or so. But recently I realized one thing […]
