Is this not the most stunning kitchen you’ve seen in your entire life? To be clear, it’s not mine, and my kitchen looks 100% nothing like this. Mine features cabinets from 1974, formica countertops (at least they’re white), and a linoleum floor that we’ll discuss no further. But since starting the Hormone Reset Diet that I’ve been […]
No Toxins, All Science: Restore Your Hair to Its Youthful Color and Luster
Photo by Kourosh Karimkhany My hair has gone quite gray in my 40’s, and I hadn’t seen its natural color in more than a decade. But now I have.

Howard Stern (and Robin!) Said My Name (NSFW)
It’s true. Howard Stern of the radio said my name, and he pronounced it perfectly (the first time).

Watch The HP Sprout Scan My Necklace Like Magic
As we got ready for holiday entertaining and house guests, I decided to do some serious house cleaning. I sent loads of clothing to Crossroads Trading Company. But I thought maybe I could try my own hand at selling the mountain of costume jewelry I’ve acquired over the past couple of decades. All you need is […]
So I Got Fired Yesterday
Yep, I got canned. It’s kind of the worst feeling, and it’s embarrassing, and my first instinct was to not let anyone ever know this really humiliating thing happened to me. In fact, I fibbed to one of my closest friends yesterday when I told her I couldn’t make it to the girl’s night out […]
