I gotta admit that after last season of The Hills, I was ready to write the whole show off, but now in its final swan song, I’m kind of digging it again.

When it comes to chilly experiences, Jill Zarin has become an expert on the subject. First she received the coldest of cold receptions at Ramona’s Caribbean getaway.

While watching TV tonight, I happened to notice this cute and cuddly commercial featuring scary people in rubber gloves removing oil from helpless ducks and seabirds thanks to reliable household dish detergent Dawn.

Courtesy of Yelp I love to try new and unique restaurants and foods in Los Angeles, but rarely am I the only to discover them. Usually, I defer to the gaggle of food bloggers out here or the Los Angeles Times’ great column, “The Find.” It’s with a heavy heart that I must admit I …
