Michelle: I'm the Mary and you're the Rhoda.Romy: That's ridiculous. You're the Rhoda. You're the Jewish one. Michelle: Oh my God! I'm talking cuteness-wise, okay? And cuteness-wise, I'm the Mary."When I am with my sisters, we have an instant familiarity and rapport that comes of sharing so much life for so many years. We easily ...

For my birthday last month Eric got me the most fabulous gift - a projector and a giant 10 foot screen. I know what you're thinking: "Wow. How romantic." (Not!) But, seriously, I have been wanting this for YEARS. But let me tell you why.I want to show movies outside in my backyard. (I told you I love movies.) So, we're ...
Six degrees of dinner conversation…
The discussions around our dinner table are never dull. We are constantly trying to stump each other with questions. Sometimes we play "Twenty Questions" or "World's Worst." But we always get back to movies. We love movies. We (by choice) don't have cable, so we don't watch tv. (although, I admit we do have some tv on dvds)But ...
Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks

During the course of the summer there would be 14 more kids - all of our cousins, from 5 families, sharing that beach house.It even had a name: Villa ObduliaI think Obdulia was the daughter of the lady who ...
She IS the boss of me.
It was a busy weekend for us with all the birthday celebrations and Father's Day. But I took the day off from my real life last Friday to go help out at the CKU convention in Anaheim (scrapbooking event). There was no way I was going to be able to actually attend the entire thing (which made me sad in like 10 different ways) because Lucy had a ...
