So while I was at Smugglers’ Notch last weekend, this happened. There aren’t enough happy emojis to express my excitement about this! #gilmoregirls ・・・ From Stars Hollow to Hartford to New Haven to Netflix. Welcome back, girls. An all new season of Gilmore Girls coming to Netflix in 2016. A photo posted by Jessica (@sanemommy) […]
Bedtime Stallers
Like all kids, my two are pros when it comes to bedtime stalling. Each has their own strategy. Buddy tries to plead his case to read “one more book,” even playing the whole “I have to read for school!” card. Mimi, on the other hand, plays on the heartstrings, asking for “one more hug” and […]
5 Signs You Have a Netflix Addiction
It’s official. I have a Netflix addiction. Well, make that a Scandal addiction. I’ve heard friends talk about how they’re “bingeing” on shows like House of Cards or Downton Abbey but I never quite got it. Until now. I discovered Scandal a few weeks ago, and I am hooked.

I’ve never been shy here about the fact that Beverly Hills, 90210 (original version, not the reboot) is my favorite show. But coming in at a very close second is arguably the best mother-daughter duo in TV history, at least in my opinion: Gilmore Girls. I adore Gilmore Girls and all of its witty, rapid-fire […]
