an experiment in fashion, beauty and being married to richie coldcuts
Hi Ladies! On this Women's Wednesday, I'm curious to know how many of you can relate. Do you hate your hair (or feel like it hates you)? My hairdresser has mentioned before that nobody likes their hair. If you were born with I-would-die-for board-straight locks, you probably want curly. If you have thin hair, you'd...

That's what she screamed at me. See, my mom was pretty mad. And even though she yelled at us a lot (we deserved it), she rarely used foul language. So being called a dumb bunny was right up there with you stupid *&*#+@! blankety-blank child and bruised my nine-year-old ears! What had I done? Other... Continue Reading →
Hey Ladies -- it's Wednesday! In order for you to clearly understand the beauty issue I'm tackling today, I have to refer back to a past post about a slight 'sweating problem' I have. You may have seen from my last post that Richie Coldcuts and I are on the boat this week. Currently smack in the... Continue Reading →
Richie Coldcuts and I decided to extend the 4th of July holiday by taking some vacation days and boating down to Longboat Key to meet up with other boating friends. Sounded like a plan, right? Well, getting there was a little more difficult than we had envisioned. Original plan: Richie and guy friends Matt and... Continue Reading →
Hi Ladies! I went to the dentist today. Just for a cleaning (and a lecture on flossing!). It got me thinking about all the Hollywood smiles I see on TV. Now, I've had braces on my teeth, one professional whitening treatment, and many, many Crest White strips. I always felt lucky that my parents stressed... Continue Reading →
Did you know I meant New Jersey? Yep. I just returned from there with Richie Coldcuts. We were up there to see Richie's parents and to attend our nephew's middle school graduation party. A bonus was seeing Richie's kids and going with them to Augustino's in Hoboken. And Pier 13. FABULOUS! New York / New... Continue Reading →
Hi Ladies -- Happy Women's Wednesday! If you're like me, your wardrobe, your accessories, your makeup and your shoes probably reflect every price point in the spectrum. Meaning, I've bought shoes at Target and on 5th Avenue in NYC. I've bought make-up at Walmart and at the make-up counter at Nieman's. Same for earrings. So... Continue Reading →
Are you a 'tidy' person? Do you have fewer than two items on each and every surface in your home? What about your office? I know people who are total slobs at work, and their homes are immaculate (and vice versa). Me? I yearn to be tidy. I'm done with the clutter that Richie Coldcuts... Continue Reading →
It's true. The Florida heat is no longer playing around. May was nice in St. Petersburg. We had several cold fronts to spare us from the impending summer heat. And even one decent weekend in June when the humidity dropped low enough that the heat was quite bearable. But as we march toward the summer... Continue Reading →
One of my favorite quotes is by Hunter S. Thompson. Basically saying live life to the fullest. More and more, it echoes my feelings about this life. So many of the messages we receive along the way are around moderation. The safe way. "Save money for retirement". "Eat healthy food". "Don't drink too much". You... Continue Reading →
