Get Ready for Cyber Monday
Are you running around like crazy doing your Black Friday shopping today? I don’t think I’ve ever done Black Friday. I don’t enjoy shopping in crowds. If I can shop at off hours, I do. When I worked at the Wall Street Journal — which was in the World Financial Center, across from the World…
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to my U.S. readers! If you’re not into watching football, you can spend game time dressing up your dog or cat as a turkey. Note: If you decide to do a cat-turkey, don’t forget to have disinfectant and Band-Aids nearby. Enjoy! CATS AND DOGS DRESSED AS TURKEYS.

Almost as Good as SkyMall
Yesterday, I said getting catalogs in the mail isn’t as fun as getting a letter. I realized how wrong I was when I got this catalog from Bits and Pieces. Who wouldn’t want these sneaker socks?! Bits and Pieces says, “These novelty sneaker socks are printed to resemble popular hi-tops that cool kids have been…

Throwback Thursday: Vintage Gold Dress
I feel like I wore my gold, one-sleeved, vintage dress recently but, according to photo evidence, “recently” was seven years ago. Here I am in 2008 with my friend Melissa at the Committee to Protect Journalists awards dinner. I got this dress at Allan & Suzi’s vintage/consignment store in 2004. I wore it to the…
Adele Is So Cute
Adele has a new song out off her soon-to-be released album 25. The song is called “We Are Young.” Adele named her 2008 debut album 19, to reflect the age she was when she was writing it. Her 2011 album, 21, followed suit, title-wise. It was a monster hit: It topped the Billboard charts for…
