Twenty Minutes with Tamzin Merchant and Torrance Coombs from The Tudors

September 30, 2010 by Unknown

As soon as I heard that I would be interviewing Tamzin Merchant (who plays Henry VIII's fifth wife, Catherine Howard) and Torrance Coombs (who plays Thomas Culpepper), from the acclaimed Irish/Canadian show, I immediately took to the twitters and to facebook to ask what UrbanMoms and Juice fans … [Read more...]

His Current Obsession

February 10, 2009 by Jen

Of course I love my children. And, like most moms, I think they are totally the bomb. But part of this is that there are things I truly admire about them. Things that are quirky and unique and represent something that sets them apart. These things, for the most part, are qualities that I didn't … [Read more...]

On The Road Again

September 2, 2008 by Jen

Eat, Starbucks and Toad in the Hole

April 18, 2008 by Jen

You'll never go hungry or thirsty in London, but you may go broke. I found out today that just about anywhere you stand in downtown London, you will be within spitting distance of either Eat or Starbucks. We ate (what else would you do in a place called Eat?) our lunch at Eat, a really refreshing … [Read more...]

My First English Meal

April 17, 2008 by Jen

I don't think I've mentioned it here before, but I am spending a week on holiday with my expat sister and her fiancé in England. More specifically in Epsom, Surrey, which is just outside the amazing metropolis of London. I wanted to share my trip with you, but how best to do it? I was inspired … [Read more...]
