As my own blogs are rather few and far between now, here are two cool links: This is an excellent programme about writing and getting published , The Write Lines, on Radio Oxford: hosted by author and broadcaster Sue Cook , with contributions from the very talented Marie Phillips , Elizabeth Chadwick , Caroline Smailes , Mark Billingham and others (I’m halfway through listening, so apologies if I’ve missed anyone) – but hurry, as it’s only available for the rest of today, I think.

A couple of great writerly things…
Ladies and Gentelmen, I am BACK! I took some time to work over the summer and ignore the things I love most in life. But now, I have returned to the kitchen, to listening to stories of romance and to writing. So please reach out to me with any of your stories, any recipes or just to say hi! While I spend my first winter in the cold in two years, I will be working on my cookbook. So here’s a report from my first week – New York, the state that brought us Buffalo Wings- from the city of Buffalo. Although they originated up North, here in the city and around the world for that matter, glowing orange, spicy Buffalo Wings can be a sort-of religion! You know the scene, you let them cool off enough to handle them, you pick one up, dip it into the blue cheese dressing, wiggling it around so that an actual chunk of blue cheese remains on top and then straight into your mouth! HMMM spicy, creamy, juicy, yum! In honor of New York and our Yankees possibly clinching the Series in five, I decide to make them at home. Not only are they the perfect meal with baseball, making them for dinner would also make me a “Super Star” wife! I did all the research, prepped everything and gave it a go! Monday night I baked the wings perfectly, did my best with the sauce and made the crudite’ with blue cheese dressing. We had loads of napkins and a 52” screen T.V. And then… wah, wah, wah. Just as our team was in for a loss, so was my “Super Star” status. Rather than feeling dissappointed, I became enlightened! I realized, sometimes it is best to leave some things to the professionals! It’s like pizza, we’re all trying to find the best in town, so why compete with the professionals when even they struggle? So I’ve scratched Buffalo Wings off of my list of recipes for my “Seduction Cookbook” and replaced it with this recipe: Invite significant other to watch game 6 of World Series. Have him meet at your place an hour before the first pitch

One of the best things about doing affiliate marketing online is that it is a flexible way to make money. And, because it is not very physically taxing, it is one of the jobs for pregnant women that can be done at any point in the pregnancy and no matter what the circumstances. These jobs for pregnant women can be done even if bed rest is required, and can be scheduled to be done on those days when energy is surging rather than on those days when it’s flagging.

Two experienced jewelry artists, Cheryl Feyen and Jeanette Ivins, sent in some excellent insights on doing outdoor shows. Their helpful tips are in response to the question-and-answer article I published in my newsletter last week, where a jewelry artist asked, “There is a big show coming up, and they guarantee at least 5 thousand visitors – but

The first session of my Mommy & Me cooking classes is over, and won’t resume until after the holidays. In the meantime, though, I thought I’d share our most recent class with you. With the recent swine flu epidemic, most of my students stayed home – but my favorite little guy showed up, and we

As the saying goes, great things come in small packages, and boy did Dell deliver on that adage! Our friends at Dell sent over their new Inspiron Zino HD PC and I must say that this little Inspiron really inspired me. This box has the potential to be a great solution as a small form factor (SFF) HTPC as well as a very capable desktop computer for those that have limited work spaces. I would like to apologize in advance for the length of this particular blog post, but I wanted to make sure I provided an accurate write up. Per my usual comments, this is not intended to be an official review of the device, but more of an overview of the platform and features offered, mixed with a little user feedback. Let me dive into some of the specifications first and then share a little on my experience with this computer.

Ad-Tech NY 2009 has come and gone, and I had the pleasure of flying out to NYC from sunny CO to check it out. This was the first Ad-Tech show to take place at the Javits Convention Center , since their contract with the hotel ran out. This was a good thing, since the entire Exhibit Hall could be on one floor and it felt very alive for the entire show. My partner and I were joking that “Day 1 is for Posers”, because we got so much quality networking done on Day 2, without the massive registration lines and aisle blockage that you typically get on Day 1. For me and my company, it was a very successful trip and we are very excited about the next few months. We even got to enjoy some time off at a live taping of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and a great afterparty at Pacha NYC

Because what get indexed is not always what you like… While most of the time during your online experience your goal will be to get content and information about you and your business published and indexed, it will come some days or situations where some information with a negative impact on your business may found its place in the search engines results.
Back in 1997 I was working in the dysfunctional Black Market shop in Paris and the buzz around the release of Nuyorican Soul was immense. A frenzy. The Paris crowd worshipped Masters At Work, had in-depth knowledge of disco, jazz and latin influences (Spain is, er, not far) and the Nuyorican Soul album had them all in qualitative spades.

Since I have 3 daughters, you know there is quite a bit of painting nails that goes on in my home. I think they might get it from their momma though! I am one that always has to have my toe nails painted, especially during the spring and summer when I wear my flip flops the most. I am not picky about my fingernails, but I won’t leave the house without polish on the toes! I recently have been using something that makes painting my nails easier and even a little organized
