TV. Food. Pop Culture.
For nearly two years, I’ve been littering my blog with “Adventures In Domesticity” posts where I attempt some recipe in an effort to hone the domestic side of my personality. I’ve cooked up many interesting dishes and subsequently had many fascinating adventures, but last night marked a true milestone for me. It was the first …

Shocking things happened on this week’s episode of The City. The previously isolated worlds of People’s Revolution and Elle magazine came together for an event so fraught with drama, I could barely lift my jaw off the ground. Okay, there really wasn’t much drama at all. Kelly didn’t yell at anyone. Roxy didn’t undermine anything …

There seemed to be a major theme running throughout last night’s episode of The Hills: drinking isn’t good. This message was spelled out clearly for us in the Holly Montag storyline, but truly, if anyone needed exemplary evidence as to why alcohol might not be a great substance to abuse, one didn’t need to look …

Exclusive video of Sly at a track & field meet. I love slapstick!
Over the weekend, my friend jash became the proud new owner of a webcam, and for the first time, he was able to enjoy the many splendors of iChat’s video-conferencing feature. He tested out this marvel of technology with me, and it didn’t take long before he began playing with the backdrop effect, as made …

Wowsahs! The latest episode of Survivor was crazy. We’ve seen medical emergencies before (more so recently), but none as scary as what Russell endured when he blacked out multiple times from dehydration. With his unblinking eyes staring up at the sky, he literally looked dead for a moment. We knew he’d wind up okay, but …

The lovely ladies of Whatever Hollywood went to the movies last week, and guess what they saw? Horror sensation Paranormal Activity. I’ve been hearing mixed things about the flick — some say it’s terrifying, others say it’s a snoozefest. Maybe I’ll have to see it myself (but probably not because I’m scared of scary movies). Nevertheless, …
Earlier this year, I visited Mario Batali and Nancy Silverton’s famed Los Angeles eatery Pizzeria Mozza with my two friends Kat and Cat, who introduced me to the restaurant’s butterscotch budino for dessert. The experience was just a hair short of orgasmic. I could not stop raving about the rich, decadent dessert, and when I …

So back in the day, I used to work for an executive in the film industry, and from time to time, he would mention his younger brother who was an up and coming hip-hop music producer (or engineer or superstar or something like that). I don’t remember specifics, but I can say that over the …

Last night’s Top Chef: Las Vegas was that most hallowed of episodes: Restaurant Wars — a.k.a. the time when half the cast embarrasses themselves beyond reprieve. Sure enough, we had some major bombs by some very accomplished chefs, but on the flip-side, there were some astounding offerings too. Tom Colicchio even noted that the Restaurant Wars …
