Fall is such a great season because of pretty leaves, the return of scarves and beloved sweaters, and pumpkins everywhere! But one of the best parts of all is the return of your favorite TV shows after a summer of repeats. With us getting back into more of a TV watching routine and less of […]
Read MoreJames and I spent another lovely Saturday afternoon at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens. Gosh, I love that place. Currently, the museum is featuring some fantastic World’s Fair footage and a very extensive Chuck Jones exhibit with all kinds of great cartoons I haven’t seen in ages. (I was reminded how […]
Read MoreHave you ever checked out the International Day of Calendar? It’s pretty intense. Not only does each date have some kind of meaning, but August itself is Romance Awareness Month, Admit You’re Happy Month, National Golf Month, and Family Fun Month. (That’s not even all of them.) Seems like you could be pretty occupied keeping […]
Read MoreWith just one day left until the official premiere of Girl Meets World, I realized it’s been a long, long time since I’ve turned on the Disney Channel. (Teen Beach Movie, anyone?) It’s so entirely unlike the person I was a few years ago, constantly turning to DC for company when I was up late […]
Read MoreYet another Memorial Day where Sam the Eagle has ignored my pleas for a guest post spot. If that’s not un-American, I don’t know what is! (Seriously, though, hope all of you are reading this on a Tuesday and enjoyed Monday with friends and family.) My husband and I are total geeks and gladly accept […]
Read MoreSome observations from the weekend: We ate a lot of bacon when Sarah from Running at Disney came to visit on Sunday. James and I are on the final episode of Season 2 of The Muppet Show. This means we only have ONE MORE SEASON LEFT TO WATCH ON DVD. Time to start writing some […]
Read MoreIt’s Monday, friends, and someone is playing a trick on Kermit. Except I’m not exactly sure who (moo?) it is. A moose with a very familiar name and a John Wayne accent makes several cameo appearances in this Season 2 episode of The Muppet Show. Kermit is in charge of the thing and he doesn’t […]
Read MoreDid you have a good weekend? We had warm weather, good books to read, and yummy dessert to eat (apple turnovers with ice cream!). If you are a dessert fiend like me, you know how a delectable, awe-inspiring snack would make you sing a song or put you into a coma. One or the other. […]
Read MoreI like Scooter. Sure, his uncle owns the theater where the Muppets started their show. Nepotism got him his job, but still — he does a good one. He never tries to undermine Kermit’s authority but keeps the show moving along in its own wacky way. (One part of The Muppet Show that I always […]
Read MoreThe Muppets killed it with promotional opportunities as they prepped for Muppets Most Wanted (which I hope every single one of you saw this weekend). To tell you the truth, I’m a little sad it’s all over. It’s been so refreshing to have a jammed schedule of Muppet appearances to look forward to. (Tough Pigs […]
