Oh my!? It’s been a sweet sweet weekend so far in Hippie-land. I’ll spare my male readers from any gory PMS details, but I think it’s pretty clear that my body’s chocolate cravings are well founded [as if you ever need an excuse to stuff your face with sweets!?]. My vampire schedule came to an end this week, and luckily enough, I slept like a baby through Thursday night. It felt awesome. And when I say that I slept like a baby, what I mean is I slept like a comatose patient, because my blackberry… Read more >

Ok. Honestly? I’m feeling a bit sick…great way to start off married life, huh? It’s not surprising that an illness should strike now, after the intense go-go-go nature of the past month I guess I had it coming. My body must’ve caught wind that my defenses are (finally) down. Too much travel, too little sleep, and on top of it all, my eating habits have been ridiculously (and abnormally) erratic over the past week (see above breakfast of crackers & hummus). I guess my immune system deserves a day off…I just hope a day doesn’t… Read more >

Last week was the (long awaited) grand opening of the newly rebuilt mall at the end of the 3rd street promenade…only it’s no longer just a “mall.” The new Santa Monica Place is pretty much the happening spot…but in addition to the high end shopping (finally a Bloomingdale’s on the west side!), there’s an entire dining deck. Source Trust me, this rooftop setting isn’t your average mall food court. Far from it. Ocean views. Award winning chefs. Like I said, it’s the happening spot. Even after a week of being open, getting reservations was nearly… Read more >

This post is a few days old, but I was already so behind before heading off to Vegas for my bachelorette party that I was able to pre-schedule this post. I’ll be back from Sin City tomorrow. But don’t expect any posts from this weekend because (as we all know) what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas [and most DEFINITELY doesn’t end up on a blog]… Today, I had a trial run with my wedding hairdo. 😀 I can’t put up pics in the off chance that Kyle reads this post, but trust me, it… Read more >

Why oh why couldn’t I just sleep in? Sadly, I woke up before 8 am…making my total shut-eye time less than 7 hours. Far more than I used to get (back in my days of employment), but far fewer than I’ve been getting lately. My body was ready to go though, so whatever. After my first cup of coffee my mom had to go to the hospital. It was kinda last minute and she wasn’t able to drive herself, so I made another cup of java to-go and we were off. She’s ok, don’t worry,… Read more >
