January 27, 2015 by Sonya Leave a Comment

Why should we take a look at the past? Well, it helps us understand where we are today. Most of us weren't even born in the "baby boomer" generation but we certainly are aware of it, hopefully?

Get The Look: Claire Danes At The 2015 SAG Awards

January 26, 2015 by Marianne Litman Leave a Comment

We were all over this year’s Golden Globes and how the moms really brought the style to the red carpet. The gowns, the hair the makeup! But when the ladies hit the SAG Awards… we were blown away. If risks were taken at the Golden Globes, they were just the warm up. A personal favourite of … [Read more...]

Over the holiday break I had this conversation with friends and family about what books we've read and then which corresponding movies we've watched.

Movie Review: Does CAKE Live Up To The Buzz?

January 23, 2015 by Sonya Leave a Comment

Rumours buzzed before the Oscar nominations came out and they were all saying the same thing: Jennifer Aniston for her role in CAKE. However, the entertainment world rippled (a bit) when she was snubbed for her role. There’s no doubt that she put her heart and soul into this role. But was it too … [Read more...]

Book Review: “Everything I Never Told You” By Celeste Ng

January 22, 2015 by Christine Stock Leave a Comment

I don’t know how you feel about your high school experience, but you couldn’t pay me enough to repeat mine. Don’t get me wrong: it wasn’t horribly traumatic or anything (and it’s been a long time since I’ve had one of those locker combination dreams), it just isn’t in my Top Five list of “Best Times … [Read more...]
