A Passover Perspective

Yesterday, I attended my son’s grade one school Passover Seder. For those of you who don’t know, a Seder is a Jewish ritual feast /meal that marks the beginning of Passover (our Easter, I

guess you could say). Of course I was proud. Of course we were all

there, with camera, and video camera, holding onto every word, every

song with bated…

"Praise Song for the Day" Inaugural Poem: Poetry Lovers Speak!

At my BlogHer.com spot, I wrote my take on the inaugural poem by Elizabeth Alexander, "Praise Song for the Day," and included excerpts from other critics. Why do you think this poem has been controversial, loved or despised.

I hope you'll join the discussion between poetry lovers, lovers of language, and other smart women… Continue

Getting Political

I know that I don't usually blog about politics, but after the recent inauguration, I had a few things to say on the subject. I have to say I am a little disappointed that so much money was spent on the inauguration considering the state of our nation's economy. Seems to me that the taxpayer's money could have been spent in a better way. Obama had a lot of very rich supporters, maybe they should have contributed more money to pay for the big celebration.

My second gripe is the amount… Continue

Count Me In As Another Mama For Obama!!

Whooo-hoooo! It’s official! The smartest, most dignified, gracious, calm, and classy (not to mention smokin’ hot) man American politics has ever seen is officially in power.

I was grateful to be able to watch the inauguration this morning at home with my two little guys by my side. Granted, they were playing blocks, but still, Hartley, who’s three, knows who Obama is and could feel the excitement generated by the TV coverage of the event. He picked up on one broadcaster’s comment… Continue

What We Can Learn From President Obama and His Use of Social Media

In honor of Inauguration Day, I thought I would take a look at our new president and the amazing things he has done for, and with, social media. If you ever have doubt about its power, take a look at our new president -- it helped him get there. He's even been hailed as the "first social media president."

What can we learn from his brilliant use of Web 2.0?

1) Make it personal

Obama and his team created… Continue

Witnessing Barack Obama's Inauguration With The Kids....

We’re not in the habit of plonking our kids down in front of the TV in the middle of the day, but tomorrow will be an obvious exception. Come 8 a.m. Pacific time, we’ll all be tuned in to CNN to watch the inauguration of Barack Obama.

I wonder if my three-and-a-half-year-old will have any recollection of this historic day. How to explain to someone his age the significance of the first African-American to hold the United States’ highest office? How could his little mind even begin to… Continue
