Sunday Brunch

After the success of my girls potluck dinner I decided to host a Sunday brunch. Its a great way to end the weekend and unwind as well as clears my head for a great weekend ahead. Some of the things on the menu: homemade sangria, artichoke and spinach dip, vegan scones & muffins, kale salad, and quiche.

Charlie Sheen: Talk of the Town

Charlie Sheen has been the talk of the town not just in LA but around the world. Mr.Sheen has worn down his bosses with years of heavy partying, frightening domestic disputes, rehab, hospitalizations that CBS and Warner Bros. could no longer justify doing business with TV's highest-paid actor, even if he did star on TV's highest-rated comedy. 


I spoke with Gloria Allred who is a founding partner of Allred, Maroko & Goldberg, one of the pre-eminent employment law firms in the country. With the other attorneys of her firm, Gloria has been involved in some of the most defining cases of our day, including O.J. Simpson, Michael Jackson, Scott Peterson, and Robert Blake, as well as one of the earliest sexual abuse suits against the Catholic Church.


What are your thoughts on Charlie?

Girls Night In

In LA getting together and trying to plan a girls night where everyone can come together can be hard since the city is so spread out, traffic is insane, and work schedules can be crazy. Although, girls nights are essential in order to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, have a chance to unwind with some girl gossip, laughs, and a good meal.

Starting last week I have decided to host a girls potluck style dinner every Wednesday night. The kick off was extremely successful. Every girl brought a dish where some of those included rosemary vegetables, broccoli cheese cassorole, chicken pizza, caprese salad, deviled eggs, and strawberries with whipped cream for dessert.

It was a memorable evening, wonderful ladies, conversation, and home cooked meal. I have to say it is the best way to get over "hump day".

Katy Perry and Russell Brand at The Tempest - Movie Premiere - Los Angeles

It was another night on Hollywood Blvd where a red carpet movie premiere is never uncommon. On this particular night it was the premiere of the upcoming film "The Tempest" based on Shakespeare's original play write featuring Russell Brand.

A lot of the times when I meet celebrities in person they tend to be complete opposites of the characters they play on the big screen. This was not the case with Russell Brand as he is equally hilarious in person as I quickly found out when I interviewed him!

Check out the video above

It may not be too hard to spot Russell riding his bike around town as we discover that he still does not have a drivers liscence! Although Russell claims that he is just a normal guy as he states that he and his wife Katy Perry plan to do "just normal stuff" over the holidays.

What do you think Russell Brand means by "normal stuff"? I haven't got a clue!
