I can’t even believe I’m about to say this but I watched a Lifetime movie with Mom over the weekend… and… it wasn’t bad.
I never thought I would be saying that.
It all happened when she was flipping through the channels and landed on the beginning of a Lifetime movie. I rolled my eyes and she laughed.
But then I saw a familiar face and a muscly man walk on screen.
“Oh, wait. That’s Taye Diggs!”
“How do you know?”, she laughed again. “I thought you didn’t watch these Lifetime movies.”
Well, to be clear, I don’t. I lump them into the same cheesy, predictable category as the Hallmark movies. But, Taye Diggs was standing there looking all fine like Taye Diggs does so I had to watch a little bit.
Then pretty soon, two hours later, the credits rolled.
And I must say I didn’t hate it.
Was it predictable? Yeah.
Did I mind? Not really.
Was Taye Diggs just as hunky as I remembered? Also, yes.
So if you happen to come across His, Hers, Ours, I think you might like it. And that’s saying a lot, coming from me.

Movie Review: Crime 101
If you’re looking for a great heist movie, I think you’ll love Crime 101! The performances by Halle Berry, Chris Hemsworth, and Mark Ruffalo were fantastic. And if you watched The Banshees of Inisherin (2022), Barry Keoghan plays a totally different character in Crime 101 (2026). And he’s really, really good, too! In fact, when […]

In The Kitchen with Laura McKenna: Dyeing Easter Eggs…Naturally
When I think of Easter Eggs, I think of egg salads sandwiches (and now I want to eat one!) So I think it’s really important to know what you’re dyeing those eggs with because what seeps into the shell can seep into the egg itself. And who wants to feed extra chemicals to their family? […]
