Those ads for Ruggable have been popping up in my Facebook and Instagram feeds for ages, but it wasn't until their Star Wars line of rugs debuted that I finally gave in and bought one. In my defense, the designs are super cool! And subtl…
Fair warning: This is not so much a review of the new In the Heights Movie , opening tonight, as it is a love letter. I am a movie person , as any longtime reader here knows. I'm also a Broadway person, a Lin Manuel person, and a proud n…
Vaccination t-shirts are more than a trend, they may be kind of important to you. I have seen so many people tell me that they are thrilled to be vaccinated, they're ready to take off their masks outside or with friends -- but they don't…

While we often share our favorite funny Christmas ornaments, we just had to share our favorite 2020 ornaments, specifically. I mean this country can't agree on much lately (sigh) but I think we can all agree, that it's been one crazy yea…
I know I'm not alone when I say I'm obsessed with The Crown . And I would happily take any The Crown gift this Christmas, because escaping to 80s London, if only through my screen, has been a very nice retreat from our home these days. (…
Am I a fan of Elf of the Shelf? Not particularly. But I know lots of you are -- including members of our own team. So when I saw this handmade quarantine bag for Elf on the Shelf on Etsy, well... come on. Join me in celebrating the ingen…
As a movie buff, I tend to be skeptical of reboots. Especially reboots of movies like Roald Dahl's The Witches which became an instant Halloween classic in the 90s. But the 2020 version, now on HBO Max, is more of a reimagining than a re…
Stronger than an off-the-record anonymous White House source. More powerful than a mask worn under your nose. Able to get more Americans believing in science in a single press conference. It's epidemiologist Dr.Anthony S Fauci! And soon,…
I imagine that searching for Halloween costumes using face masks is going to be a thing this year -- and I don't mean your typical Halloween masks that cover your whole face. You know how no kid wants their long-planned costume ruined by…

2020 is already underway., and normally we'd have shared our annual list of our favorite printable calendars with you for the year. But with some of our kids back in school late this year, combined with and some of the recent stories on …
It's hard to even know where to start with this -- each of these women could be their own Editors Best of the Year, but together, they're even more powerful. And that's saying something. We have to start somewhere, so, as we often do, we…
It's no surprise to anyone who knows me or my kids that we are massive Broadway fans . We are so fortunate to live in The Greatest City in the World (name that tune), which allows us to see a lot of musicals. A lot. But my kids are hardl…
