The Heart of the Matter, Ladies
Posted on February 25th, 2009 in HOWDINI by admin Seeing Heidi Klum at the Oscars reminded me of two things. 1. I really, really miss Project Runway and hope they resolve the battle between Lifetime and Bravo soon. It's my favorite almost-reality show. 2. She was wearing red, as a reminder that February is women's Go Red for heart health month. Heart disease is, by far, the number one killer of women. ...Better Lashes Through Chemistry
Posted on January 16th, 2009 in HOWDINI by admin I spent a lot of my career writing, reporting or producing news, and what I always loved about it was the opportunity to surprise and either delight or horrify people with new information. The delight/horrify continuum is a key component to what makes a news story news, or just filler. So I have to ponder where on the delight/horrify continuum this ...Marley and You
Posted on January 1st, 2009 in HOWDINI by admin So you just saw Marley and Me and you simply have to get a puppy. Maybe it has to be a lab, like Marley, maybe some other adorable bundle of fluff. But how do you choose that perfect pooch, the one that is your soul-mate? Here's a great Howdini video, one of a series we did with ...Worst.Turkey.Ever
Posted on November 25th, 2008 in HOWDINI by admin I am a kitchen kibitzer, a dinner dabbler, a side dish sideshow. Great at making desserts (natch, given my sweet tooth), but too often my cooking adventures end with the food in flames and me in a panic. The Husband, however, is a great cook, and Thanksgiving is the highlight of his year. You’ll never have a moister, more tender ...Halloween Hostess with the Grossest
Posted on October 22nd, 2008 in HOWDINI by admin Halloween brings out the best and worst in me, I must admit.

About This Blogger
- Unless you see otherwise, blogs are written by me. To learn a lot about me (and who wouldn’t want to?) check out the About Us page at Howdini. But here’s enough to help you picture me, your happy blogger, as you read. I’m a willowy blonde, fabulous figure, late 30s, Ivy League educated but very down to earth. Oh wait, that’s my imaginary alter ego. In reality, I’m none of those things, except down to earth, or maybe, uh, earthy. I’m also a long time television producer and writer, a mom, and a wife. I have written two books; the new one is called Five Lessons I Didn’t Learn From Breast Cancer (and One Big One I Did) which you can buy HERE.
