This happened 5 years ago and the reactions shocked me…

Happy snowy Monday! Here in the Netherlands we’ve been covered (well, most of the country) by a thick blanket of gorgeous snow.

IT’S A GREAT DAY TO DO GREAT THINGS

Why I said no to the Doritos (even though they were named after me)

So, here I am. I mean, there I was. Sitting on the couch last Thursday night. I had just finished watching an episode of the Crown, and I was looking up information about the IRA.

ROCK AND ROLLERCOASTER – WHAT. A. YEAR.

ROCK AND ROLLERCOASTER. WHAT. A. YEAR. We did it! We survived the most insane year ever.

My bathrobe and I have a little message for you….

Happy Holidays! It’s Christmas eve, and although I didn’t grow up celebrating Christmas, I now have a tree and my house is lit up like Vegas. And I’m feeling all lovey-dovey, writing you this with my fluffy bathrobe on, the fireplace crackling, and a glass of wine waiting for me on the kitchen counter. I […]
