More from SXSW: Annie Ray's Photo Booth

I almost forgot about an impromtu photo shoot we stumbled upon at Sweet Leaf Tea headquarters in Austin. Annie Ray took some great photos and I thought it would be fun to share them with you...If these photos don't bring a smile to your face...well, I dont know what will. Enjoy!

SXSW Interactive and Two Culinary Delights

I spent the past three days learning lots of great stuff at the SXSW Interactive Festival in good 'ole Austin, TX. Aside from all the learning and networking (and drinking!), I discovered two culinary delights:

The 'Marry Me' Sushi Roll @ Piranha Killer Sushi is by far one of the tastiest treats I've found in a long time... shrimp tempura & ginger cream topped with avocado, tuna & STRAWBERRIES. That's right. I said strawberries. The next time you're dining at their restaurant, do yourself a favor and order this roll. Your life will never be the same!


I was also a huge fan of the Cedar Door's Burger - one of the best burgers I have ever tasted. The menu actually said, "Tastes so good it’ll make your tongue slap ya brains out!" ... and I completely agree!

Harper Turns Six Months Old!

Harper turned six months old last week, and as you might have guessed - we celebrated! Here are some of the latest photos of his sweet face:

Almost Famous

Once again, I am reminded that I have the B-E-S-T job ever… here’s the latest reason:

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend a star-studded fundraising event in sunny California benefiting the ‘Hungry In America Project’ with one of my most favorite colleagues, Whitney Eichinger. The event was hosted by Vanity Fair/FEED Foundation at Tom Colicchio’s Craft restaurant and was quite possibly, one of the most memorable nights of my life! Not to mention it was all supporting a good cause... the 'Hungry In America Project' is producing a documentary film that addresses the issue of hunger in America.

Throughout the evening we mixed and mingled with some of the best names in Hollywood and tried our best to fit in among the likes of Marcia Cross, Topher Grace, Nick Lachey, David Arquette, Ali Larter, and many more!

The celebs were super normal and I couldn’t help but think, “How on earth did I get here?!” I wanted to pinch myself the entire evening! I absolutely loved it!

You can read more about the event on the LA Times Blog or check out some of the event pics on WireImage.
