My love for movies began as a child and I love the fact that for 90-120 minutes or so, I can escape into another world full of great characters. When I was a teenager, I had a secret dream of becoming an actress. But that was then, and now I enjoy watching the great actors and actresses that fill the screen on TV or in the movies. I’ve watched a few good movies recently and I’d like to share a couple of them with you. If you haven’t already seen them, then go out and rent one (or buy one) or […]
Man of Style: Tom Hiddleston
My oldest niece, Kyra, is totally in love with Tom Hiddleston. It broke her heart a little when she found out that he was dating Taylor Swift. Now mind you, she likes Taylor Swift, but as she put it, “No. This cannot be happening. This is too much for me to handle. She had Harry Styles, then Calvin Harris, NOW HIM. I can’t.” Because of Kyra’s undying love for all things “TH”, I have decided to honor Tom Hiddleston as the first “Man of Style” in a new monthly series by the same name. Tom Hiddleston is an English actor. […]
Can You Guess Their Famous Fathers?
Sometimes I think it’s easier to break into the Hollywood scene if your parents are already in the industry. I, myself, am not famous and I don’t have “famous” parents (although I think my mom and dad are pretty awesome). So it’s no wonder that there is a whole generation of actors that we love to watch now, only to discover that their mother and/or father are actors themselves. I was watching Hawaii 5-0 a few months ago because my friend from high school, Kinna McInroe, had a guest spot on an episode that aired on Jan. 8th. As I was watching […]
Take Me Back to the 80’s (Movies, that is)
What better way to spend time with your friends and family this summer than to watch some classic movies from the 1980s. Most people my age remember some of the classic movies of our generation, especially the ones from the 80s. Those were some classic movies! Of the some 31,000+ movies that were made between 1980 and 1989, here is a short list of some of my favorites. We had the John Hughes movies, such as The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Some of my other favorite movies include The Princess Bride, Dirty […]
Links I Love
Since I revamped my blog earlier this month, I have been looking at starting a new weekly or monthly series (or two). I have found myself drawn to other bloggers posts about “links they love”, so today, starts the first in a series. My plan for this series – “Links I Love” – is that it will become a monthly series. I hope you find these links as great and interesting as I did! Ever wonder about the bedrooms of those TV characters like Carrie Bradshaw and Serena van der Woodsen? Glamour magazine shares some cools details about these rooms. Daily Dose of Design shares […]
