I know. Everyone else celebrates their birthDAY. And some clever folks even celebrate Birthday Week, which I did, too, until I said to myself, "Self, we should try to see if we can drag out this birthday celebration stuff for the entire month of May." No, I don't really talk to myself that way....or maybe I do, but that's not ...

Giving stuff away – Disney DVDs
A few months back, Amy and I got the chance to preview the film, Gnomeo and Juliet from Disney Pictures. It's about Garden Gnomes in an ill-fated romance. Yes. Garden Gnomes. In love. I just love the wonderful absurdity of the entire premise. Amy Kikita and I actually got to see it in theaters a few months back and while we were a bit tense ...

Beauty and The Grid
When Amy was about 12, we had the opportunity to see Beauty and the Beast (the stage show) at the Music Center in Los Angeles. (At that time, Lucy was only 2, but that's not important right now.) I remember the show being so breathtakingly beautiful. And I remember my surprise that the Disney animated film could translate so perfectly to the ...
Hello, December.
I love going to new places and trying new things. I also love going to old places and doing thing I've done before, but that's not important right now. ;-) When December rolls around, I always look forward to having holiday-type experiences. Sometimes those include plays or movies or Disney Magic. But yesterday, I had the happy privilege ...

TANGLED – A Giveaway.
All four of my kids are grown now, but it wasn't too long ago that we religiously made plans to watch whatever new Disney offering was available. In fact, we haven't missed a Disney film yet. You know that we love All Things Disney (especially Disneyland, see my Disney Scavenger Hunt as proof). That love affair started for me when I was ...
Cuban Miami – A Story Book
My family left Cuba in early 1961. My brother was on the first Pedro Pan flight in December of 1960. Happily, my family was only separated for a few very tense months. But we were part of the lucky few who managed to leave the country rather quickly. Once reunited, my father vowed we'd never be separated again and so when my older sisters ...
