Some actors and actresses can make multiple movies together and they have wonderful chemistry. That’s what I call “movie magic”! Photo Credit: PopSugar I was never a big fan of Adam Sandler’s early years, but he gained me as a fan when he teamed up with the adorable Drew Barrymore.

All Grown Up
I often watch movies and think of the actors or actresses, “They are the same age as me.” Then I think about other movies I’ve seen them in and realize that the movie I’m thinking of is 20-something years old… And that makes me feel old.

Even though this movie is a couple of years old, seeing Whitney Houston brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye. She played an over-protective mother of aspiring singer-songwriter Sparkle (played by American Idol winner Jordin Sparks). Sparkle forms a trio with her sisters, Sister Williams (played by Carmen Ejogo) and Delores Williams (played by Tika Sumpter). This movie was to have been Whitney Houston’s acting comeback, as she […]
30 Before 30
In my case, it would be “50 Before 50”, since I’m technically out of my 30s. Just typing that fact has made me feel officially OLD! I am up for some suggestions for 20 more things to do before I turn 50, so please send your suggestions to me! Still, this list is well-rounded and something I’m passing on to my three nieces in hopes that they will explore the world and live the life that I wish I had had the courage to live.
