The Bear is head-over-heels in love with Singing in the Rain. She loves Kathy Seldon (Debbie Reynold’s character) but for some reason has to leave the room when she nails Lina Lamont in the face with that cream pie. Weird. She just gets upset at that part of the film.Happy […]

My two nine year old nieces are over this evening, marking the Bear’s first sleepover in our home. They ate pizza, watched Singing in the Rain (for the first time), read a ton of books and generally enjoyed each other’s company. Was a fine Friday evening (save for my MSU […]

Got some Barnes & Noble, Border’s or Amazon.com gift cards burning a hole in your wallet (or digital purse)? Consider acquiring the adorable He Came With The Couch by David Slonim. He Came With The Couch is an offbeat story of a family’s new couch and the unexpected appendage that […]
