All this cold, flurries, and “polar vortex” talk has successfully kept me huddled inside like a hibernating bear; snuggled up in sweatshirts and drinking a variety of teas, cocoas, and coffees, thanks to my trusty Keurig.
If you’re anything like me, this week has not been the most fun time for you...
In 1967, Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke embarked on an adventure in moviemaking history that would capture hearts and audiences far and wide in “Mary Poppins,” which is perhaps one of Disney’s most beloved, live-action musicals.
Set in turn of century London, “Mary Poppins” follows Jane and...
If you ask anyone who knows anything about yours truly, they’d probably give you one of three answers: firstly, that I’ve got a loud and colorful personality; two, that I am 100% in love with Jesus; and three, that I was born to write.
A runner up answer would be that I have some of the most unruly...
I’ve mentioned before that if I were pressed to choose a western to watch, it’d be a Clint Eastwood one – specifically, The Outlaw Josey Wales.

I am pleased and encouraged in...
It’s pretty rare that I get to review a movie before it hits theatres, but I suppose that’s what happens when you’re fortunate enough for advanced screenings. Me, being one of those fortunate souls, attended a special screening of Bumblebee, the Transformers film which is slated to release on...
I can imagine there’s a lot of people out there who read my column and think I’m some variety of nuts.
And I’m ok with that. I love cashews and almonds!
As the holiday season comes around to salute the swiftly departing 2018 year, I listen to the Christmas carols hit the radios like a typhoon. The...

I had every intention of cooking Thanksgiving dinner this year with my mom.
