Blogging seems sooooo last year.
Follow my lifecast (like blogging but better) on NonSociety.com for oodles of daily updates, photos, videos and more.

I especially love this one because it is raw and real — exactly how I envisioned Y2M…
So this one’s only 1 minute, but it’s a fun and random chit-chat with Sean Lennon (and his gal-pal, who knew?) in the front row of the Charlotte Ronson show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in NYC.

This summer, I’ll be spending some time in my hometown of Wyomissing, Pennsylvania.
The area is known for pretzels, The Peanut Bar (above), Yeungling beer and yes, ground zero of Jon and Kate’s brooding and brood (little-known fact: Jon and I went to the same high school (below) — although I graduated a few years before he did ).
Fun fact: one of the first on-camera television series I did was during a summer internship at Berks Cable when I was tasked with exploring local treasures such as Lebanon bologna. I like to think I’ve come a long way since then…
But I must confess, there is something delightfully nostalgic and appealing about local treasures, and since I’ve arrived in Wyomissing, I have been reveling in renewed awe of all things Berks County. Except scrapple.
Over the next month and a half, I will be sharing some of my favorite memories, hot spots, foods, destinations and local lore both in blog and video form in a new series that I’m calling “K in PA” — stay tuned, cause you never know who you’re going to run into…

I have long loved Archie McPhee for its kitschy fare – bubblegum cocktail weenies, hula girl dusters, cupcake band aids, waffle-flavored breakfast floss, St. Clare the Patron Saint of Television figurines…
Today while browsing I stumbled upon a Magic 8 Ball-like toy called the Affirmation Ball.
Even better, you can perk yourself up with their virtual one for no charge. Click on the GET HAPPY tab HERE to play.

So, check it out (oy, I sound like Randy Jackson): Prince Charming Hits NYC and the BBC talks to me!
Imagine my glee upon getting a query from a former colleague at ABC News — who is now with BBC News — asking if I would join them in Manhattan to dish on His Royal Hotness’ visit to New York. Um….YES!
My rainy morning soundbites (yep, I was wearing my Wellies!) made it into not one, but TWO BBC NEWS segments…

I sat down with my favorite artist/icon/cool guy in his Brooklyn studio…
Check out his blog for musings and pix.
Check out his website for gear and goods.
Check out this video for a behind-the-scenes peek at KAWS (or, The Life of Brian…sorry B, couldn’t resist)

As many of you already know, I am a huge Hello Kitty fan. That said, I am beyond excited about all the cool collabos and products that are being launched in honor of her 35th anniversary this year.
I just got the heads-up on the new ASICS and HELLO KITTY limited edition sneaker collaboration that hits stores in September…totally 80s fab (although I still refuse to wear acid-washed jeans).
The red “Pattern” design will be sold at sanrio.com and select Sanrio stores, but the black “Casino” version (above) will be stocked only at the Sanrio Luxe boutique in Times Square. A third design will be unveiled in October. All kicks are $145.
For your edification, some of my favorite Hello Kitty factoids:
1. Hello Kitty is not a cat. She is a little girl.
(be on the lookout for me on Animal Planet’s “CATS 101″ this fall talking about my favorite non-feline gal pal!)
2. Hello Kitty does not have a mouth because she speaks from the heart.
3. Hello Kitty weighs as much as three apples.
