Hi Roxy,
Foster and Adoptive Family Services is having an NJ Charity Walk for Children in Foster Care on Saturday, October 23, 2010 on the NJIT Campus in Newark, NJ. All proceeds go to fund programs that directly impact the lives of children in foster care. If you would see fit to give this event a [...]
Ever since London and Maddie started their fourth year of Annie’s Playhouse Summer Stars musical theatre camp in Far Hills, NJ, thanks to this year’s Glee theme, my girls have turned into Broadway babies. We watched the entire first season of Glee over the course of a few weeks leading up to the big show [...]
I’ve posted my review of the Miley Cyrus show over on my Roxiticus Desperate Housewives blog, but wanted to let all of you know about another great dinner our family (and four friends) enjoyed before the show at the Adega Grill in Newark, New Jersey. We arrived to find the table set for eight (8), [...]
Back in the Spring, Rex and I were lucky enough to score two sets of four tickets to take London and Maddie and friends to see Miley Cyrus on Saturday, November 7th at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. Today, I’ve wrapped up our plans to include a mother-daughter pair of friends for Maddie [...]

Or should I say, “paperless tickets??!!” Have all of you heard the buzz about Ticketmaster’s latest attempt to beat the scalpers and get real fans into the seats at face value?

We’re just past a relaxing spring break for London and Maddie, and spring is definitely in the air here in the Roxiticus Valley. The daffodils are out, the first of the cherry blossoms have popped, and we opened our beach house in Bay Head over the weekend. Even though Rex has been away in Chicago and [...]
As my loyal readers know, Rex and I have recently merged our small mergers and acquisitions firm with another Wall Street firm. The transition and my new investment banking role have taken much of my time and energy, and the longer hours and more frequent long commute have had an impact on our whole family. [...]
London described it as “the best birthday party ever.” Maddie just loved having our own private balcony for ten, looking out over the crowd. Rex said, “Weird… but wonderful.” One of the other moms kept looking for Eloise from the Plaza Hotel… she didn’t find that naughty little six-year-old, but enjoyed many other surprises. I [...]
I love it when a plan comes together, and London’s 8th birthday party is well on its way.
Since we moved out to Mendham Township, New Jersey, from Manhattan’s West Village five years ago, we’ve had large celebrations for London and Maddie’s birthdays. In an effort to get to know the girls’ friends and their families, [...]
