Music Monday, Twins of Evil

It's Halloween week and what better way to celebrate than with the Twins of Evil?!

I saw Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson over the weekend. Both men put on a great theatrical production, but Zombie definitely stole the show! This was my third timing seeing Zombie, and he always puts on an amazing show with lights, pyro, and creepy monsters all tied together with hard hitting beats. It was a blast!

And, when Zombie walked through the crowd, he was only 3 feet from my daughter and I!! AWESOME!!

Get up out of your seat and enjoy some music from the Twins of Evil. Have a great week and a happy Halloween!

Aloha Friday, What would you do?

Happy Aloha Friday! The day where I take it easy and ask you to answer a question. Today's question; What would you do?

Imagine this:

You're standing at the door. The wind is howling all around you, and voices are yelling at you to go. You look down and see the green grass, only... it's so. far. away.  What do you do? Do you jump? or Do you turn around and take your seat for the slow plane ride back to earth?

♪You say you don't know, you won't know until you begin...might as well jump♪ (Van Halen)

UNREAL Candy, now that's something to party about!

I had an UNREAL party last weekend. What made it UnReal? The great candy of course! UNREAL is a candy company that has unjunked some of our favorite candies. They want you to feel good about eating candy so they've taken out all the unnatural junk stuff, and just made it simple, you know like candy used to be.

I just love everything about this company, their mission, and of course their yummy candy. I couldn't wait to share it with friends and family.


There were plenty of treats for everyone. The favorites seem to be the candy coated peanuts, and the peanut caramel nougat, but everyone was surprised at how much like the other brand they all are.

 Thanks to UNREAL everyone took a home a bag of UNREAL treats, because what's a party without swag, right?!



Want to know more about UNREAL candy? Check out this cool video!
And, if you already like UNREAL, why not tweet them @GETUNREAL or like them on Facebook

Disney's FrankenWeenie Review, A Heart Warming Film

Disney's FrankenWeenie opens today, and it is a delightful movie! I had the pleasure of seeing it at the advanced screening, and I found it to be truly heartwarming.


When little Victor Frankenstein's dog dies, he is so sad that all he wants is to bring him back. Inspired by his science teacher, he does just that. Of course this leaves all the other kids wanting to do the same.

This is a very sweet story that plays homage to the great old classic movies. Frankenstein enthusiasts will love the many references to the old film, and families will like the fun and laughs.

I will caution you that some scenes may be too intense for very young children, but it is not gory or violent. One parent expressed concerns to me based on the commercials that referenced a Oijia board. I kept my eyes open for this type of scene but it must have landed on the cutting room floor because it was nowhere to be found. So, if this was going to keep you away, don't let it. Only you can be the judge of what's right for your children, but a theater full of children age 6 and up really seemed to enjoy it. Disney has done a great job with this film.

I think FrankenWeenie will be an instant Halloween classic.
