Which Ones Are the #Muppets?!

It’s time to put on makeup. It’s time to light the lights. It’s time to get things started. Why don’t we get things started. In the most sensational, inspirational… …Muppet Show tonight! The song lyrics above signaled the beginning of a very special time for my family. As you know, family time is special...

A Brush with Celebrity After #BlogHer

BlogHer was a whirl. A veritable blur of activity. I had my family with me, which added to the chaos. Although really I was so much in my own world of BlogHer that I hardly noticed my family. I don’t mean to sound like I didn’t care about them. Far from it. I texted...

What Is Technology to You? #windowsphone

As a kid in England, technology meant nothing to me. I was as far away from being a tech geek as you could be. My neighbor was super cool as he had an Atari system. Even the little kid I babysat for had a simple computer through the TV. I remember a handful of...

Seizing Family Time with Family Movie Night

Readers of this  blog know that I am all about family time. With a teen on the cusp of adulthood, I grasp at family time any way I can. Even my youngest is now 8. Still a little boy, but his preteen years are not far off. If I see a movie in the...

My Days as a Radio DJ @popsalad

I posted about the new Duran Duran tour and album a few days ago. It got me reminiscing about the 80s. I had a Duran Duran t-shirt at one time. My last DD t-shirt was purchased in the 80s and sadly even if it fit it would be faded and worn out. It might...

The 80s Are Calling Me! @popsalad

As a new, fresh off the boat…uh plane…from England college freshman, I had 3 cassette tapes. I’ll let that sink in. Cassette tapes. Not CDs. Not digital downloads. Not ipods or itouches, but good old-fashioned cassette tapes. Back home in England, I even had a record player. Ahh…the 80s. My beloved but tiny music...

Connecting with FiOS Flex View for #familytime [Review]

To say that my family is switched on to media would be an understatement. Five years ago we had a home computer, a satellite dish because we have poor local TV, and a regular old cell phone. That was it. We had more connectivity than some, but less than others. Today, we probably have...

Who Is Simon Miller? [Review]

August 5, 2011
By

Just found out that “Who Is Simon Miller?” will be out on DVD soon. Great family movie from Walmart and P&G. #seizingfamilytime You wonder sometimes don’t you? The vagueness. The unanswered questions. The notion of something not quite right about a person. Could be that you work with someone who is a little evasive...

We’re Revving up for Cars 2

Are you like me? Do you remember everything about your child’s first movie experience? Did you fret over whether your child was ready for a movie in a theater? I’ll bet you waited until your child would sit still for a movie at home. My daughter loved watching videos. Some of the Golden Books...
