Disney is magic…but we all knew that, right? This summer, I had a very cool opportunity to get a peek behind the curtain. I got to spend a day at Disney Animation Studios and talk to the awesomely creative people behind the upcoming movie, Ralph Breaks the Internet. Even though I got to see a…
I love to cook. Give me a few hours, a clean kitchen and the sound tracks to Wicked, Dear Evan Hansen and Kinky Boots and I can whip you up a meal that will make you cry and slap your mama. But on an ordinary Thursday night, who really has time for that? Not me….
I love upstate New York and I think this region is one of the BEST kept secrets we have as a country. I was lucky enough to get to spend some time in this area this fall and I’m already planning my next trip…yes, really I am! The scenery is beautiful, the people are friendly…

I recently had the opportunity to spend…
Disney movies are a wonderful, magical thing. Some fall into the category of “my movies” – the classics I grew up with. Others fall into the category of my daughter’s movies and still others, my sons’. There’s an 18 year age gap between my daughter and my sons, so there was a period of time…
Texans like their trucks. We all know this, right? Big hair, big trucks, everything’s bigger in Texas. We’ve all heard that. I have never owned a truck, though. My dad had a truck during most of my growing up years. I’ve certainly driven my fair share of trucks over the years but I’ve never owned…
