HOUSEWIVES PHOTOCAP: Keeping Abreast of the Orange County Ladies

While I was away in New York, a marvelous thing happened: the new season of The Real Housewives of Orange County premiered, and just in time, too. No disrespect to Nene, Kim, Sherayay et. al, but the Atlanta crew was getting seriously stale by the end of the season. Somewhere at the halfway point, the …

SURVIVOR PHOTOCAP: Pulled The Buff Right Over Their Eyes!

Oh man. Survivor has been so good lately. Don’t get me wrong — I’ve LOVED this season as a whole, but now that the two tribes have merged, the individual game has kicked into overdrive, which means there’s more scheming, tricks, and shenanigans than ever before. Last week’s ep, which I didn’t write about since …

TOP CHEF PHOTOCAP: Bathrobes, Breakfast, and One Awful Soup

Top Chef returned last night after a one week hiatus, and I’m happy to report that it was well worth the wait. Both the Quickfire and the Elimination challenges were highly entertaining, and even if Gail was absent, there was much to enjoy. First off, we had Padma eating breakfast in bed, bathrobe and all. …

THE CITY PHOTOCAP: Miami Social Club

In case you haven’t noticed, there have been no updates on this site for the past week. That’s because I had to go back to New York for a family thing. Now I’m en route back to Los Angeles, and what better way to return to blogging than by turning to last night’s episode of …

Burning Questions About 'Gossip Girl.'

It’s been a few weeks; so I thought I’d check back in on Gossip Girl, my favorite nighttime soap, which continues to be silly fun, even if the storylines this season have veered into ridiculous territory. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: the show works best when the leads are engaging in …

HOUSEWIVES PHOTOCAP: How You Gonna Have A Fighting Reunion With No Fighting?

It’s been a few weeks since I checked in with The Real Housewives of Atlanta. With Thursdays being a logjam of television, the show had become less of a priority, especially given how the second half of the season got kind of boring. Sure, there was some bickering, but nothing particularly fascinating took place. Even …

ADVENTURES IN TEQUILA: Margaritas, Crafting, and Feats of Strength Edition

A magnificent thing happened on Friday afternoon. A free bottle of 1800 Silver Tequila arrived at my doorstep! This wasn’t a totally random event though. I had received an email from a firm representing 1800 Tequila announcing that the company would be releasing a limited edition series of bottles designed by various artists (read the …

HALLOWEEN 2009: More Goofy Pictures Than One Can Imagine

There’s nothing quite like Halloween on a Saturday, especially in West Hollywood, CA, where over 500,000 people convene to show off their costumes and check out everyone else’s in what usually proves to be the people watching event of the year. And as you all know, if there’s anything I love, it’s people watching. In …
