Meet Jessica Knoll and hear about the Luckiest Girl Alive, which is already nominated for the Edgar Award™ for Best First Novel, this Sunday, April 10 @ 3:00pm at the Newport Beach Public Library, my new…
I can’t believe I’ve been blogging since before 2008? A different topic. (Paula’s Choice circa 2008 here.) But Paula’s Choice tho. Throughout all of my dirty hippie adventures in skincare and beauty, Paula’s Choice has been there. Paula’s Choice has been my go-to for moisturizer, sunscreen, cleanser, and powder for … ever, I think. Their latest…
This is not even an April Fool’s joke. I really did eat all the casseroles this week. All week. I am digging the casserole. You know what’s annoying? Food prep really makes life a LOT easier. It makes meals foolproof. It saves money. And calories. And it makes me happy. Here are the three recipes…
… and they continue to change the lives of women around the world. Sports are empowering in a way that nothing else is—teaching strength (physical and mental), resilience, determination, teamwork, camaraderie, and more.

And I got grouchy. REAL grouchy. Apologies to everyone who ever interacted with me over the past couple of weeks. I’m…
As the child of two therapists, I fully believe in the power of therapy and the importance of mental health. How having an awesome therapist can be a complete gamechanger for how your life goes. I mean, every celebrity ever has a therapist on speed dial, so to be a true faux celeb, you definitely…
I love life by the beach. And it looks like I’m gonna be here a little while longer, at a job I love and in a house I love! Last weekend, I was reminded of the joys of beach living with the perfect Sunday: Nali playing at dog beach before I hopped on a bike and cruised…
Dumpster rescue. The perfect skinny entryway piece, with drawers. A repository for keys, dog treats and poop bags, purses, with bins for backpacks and shopping bags underneath. I found it outside my new apartment almost a year ago, and it took me about 7 months to get around to redoing it, but boy was I…
Mammoth to Omaha. An unlikely turn of travels, from road trip to jet, but grateful for both. A ski weekend with two feet of snow (!!!), Nali playing again in the snow, my badass new work team, a deeper understanding of my new job… Awesome. Exhausted. And excited.
