Amelia Bedelia & Idioms
I understand, I totally do understand, why Amelia Bedelia is endearing to young readers across multiple generations. I find her endearing! I think the books are funny, and she’s a […]
Patterned Patchwork
I’m really feeling the ‘shabby chic’ look—in small doses, and with a greater emphasis on the chic than the shabby. (Why do I keep spelling this shappy?) Mainly in the […]
Jane Austen Extravaganza
I’ve always loved Jane Austen. There’s something about reading her novels that makes me feel so absolutely and totally immersed in her late 18th Century reality. I know this is a […]
Museum Mile Festival
I know this is a little late in the game, or at least, a little later in the game than is probably preferable for a calendar-wielding planner, but I wanted […]
“Blackbird”
I went to see a play by myself last night. Yes, I am patting myself on the back for being very independent, utterly cultured and totally French. 😉 (I’m also […]
MYOB
Over the weekend, I had a really strange encounter. The specifics are totally negligible— at least when it comes to proving my point here. Basically, I would like to dissect […]
Do shampoos really do what they’re supposed to do?
I acknowledge that this is probably strange, and most people […]
“My Favorite Murder”
My friend Caroline and I have grown up together. Meaning- we have evolved from Broadway musical loving fangirls/Lizzie McGuire obsessed tweens, to super cool, awesomely hip, true crime podcast mavens. […]
Suspiciously Similar Movies
The other day, I was describing the plot of “White House Down” to a fellow Channing Tatum admirer— or Tatum Channing, as my mother mistakenly refers to him- when I […]
I got my tight pants on!
I feel a bit like Jimmy Fallon today…in my tight pants. Did you hear? They’re the tightest pants in all the land. Everybody’s talkin about them! (You need to watch this […]
“Team Foxcatcher”
As one does during reading period, or at least, as I do, I watched a cool documentary last night. (Reading period is so bleak. Nothing like films about real life psychopaths to […]
“The Sound of Music”
The hills are alive, with the sounds from LDOC, la la la la. It’s the end of my academic year tomorrow, and I am totally baffled! How did this go […]
“The King and I”
“Shall we dance?” Dun, dun, dun. That line always makes me want to put on a swishy, noisy dress and be twirled around. I wonder why… I thought the original […]
“South Pacific”
To the great dismay of my bank account, I have discovered some pretty cool vintage Etsy shops. At this very moment, my friend Kyra and I are hunting for a […]
“State Fair”
“State Fair” is the only R&H musical written specifically for the screen. No wonder! There are so many set changes. How the heck would they have staged the pivotal roller […]
“Carousel”
This musical is way, way, way darker than I remember. When I was six, I thought anything starring Shirley Jones and Gordon MacRae was spectacular. In hindsight, I’m starting to […]
