As I mentioned yesterday, last week I attended two of the final tapings (the 3rd-to-last and 2nd-to-last shows) of the Oprah Show (you can read about that here). And… Here’s who I saw… I mentioned the long list of players in yesterday’s performance (here), and today you can expect Will Smith, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Simon Cowell, [...]

#thanksoprah

May 24th, 2011

In honor of the Oprah Show’s last week on the planet, Maggie had the fun idea of doing a #thanksoprah flickr group to celebrate the things we’ve learned from Oprah over the years. If you want to play along, take a photo of yourself holding a sign with something you’ve learned from the Oprah Winfrey [...]

So, I Went to See Oprah.

May 23rd, 2011

If you follow Twitter at all, you may remember that last Monday I flew to Chicago to see Oprah. You know. Normal. The hows-and-whys about how and why I was lucky enough to experience this are all still a little fuzzy to me. But here’s how the details went down. During the Mom 2.0 after-event [...]

Yes. That Happened.

May 10th, 2011

My Mother’s Day Present

May 9th, 2011

For Mother’s Day, Harry (with some technical assistance from his father) made me a Mixed Tape…or a personalized CD…of my favorite songs, or rather, my favorite songs according to Harry.
