Play Review -- New Hope City

I hate to say with a family of actors that it's been a pathetically long time since I've been truly moved by a play. So I'm pleased to say that the production, "New Hope City," rocked me to the core with its multimedia, genre-bending mixed grill of great music, film and acting. You'll feel like a sushi roll with every food you love in it but you never thought you could ever have it because it would fall apart. But the play stands firmly on a sturdy cutting board of hilarity, heartbreak, and bizarre futuristic philosophy. With highlights including an improvised talk show by Sexo the Clown and a sexy choreographed dance party, this show will give you a new hope that a trip to the theater can be a refreshingly nice time.

Playing this Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the Bushwick Starr in Brooklyn, NY. Get tickets now and learn more about the amazing band Pass Kontrol here.

Pet Post -- Cat is IN the Bag

Snacks loves her some bags, let me tell you!!

Memories -- Little Liz

I just had to post this to prove that at one point in my life, I could rock bangs. It was brief, glorious and fleeting-- but it did exist. And MAN did I love triceratops!! Still do. Just wish I still had this awesome sweatshirt...

American Chopper and A Good Cause!

My dear friend Ryan alerted me that the Christopher Reeve Foundation has been working with the reality show American Chopper to craft a wheelchair accessible motorcycle, which will be featured on their show this Thursday (TONIGHT), at 9PM ET on TLC. It should be pretty awesome and inspiring for a lot of people out there. And then, why not donate to a great cause?! Thanks and cheers Xo Liza

Jams -- Tickle those Keys!

Elderly couple Fran and Marlo walked into the lobby of the Mayo Clinic for a checkup and spotted a piano. Watch 'em jam! They've been married for a whopping 62 years, and Marlo turned 90 this year.

Pet Post -- Holiday Costumes

My dreams of successful Halloween costumes for the pets didn't really take flight this year, despite my creative efforts. I tried to turn Peanut Butter the rabbit into a PB&Jelly sandwich (pictured above), and boy was that a struggle!! So this Christmas, I decided to give them a break and take comfort in other people's festive pet costumes...Cheers!

Deck the Halls

This year, with all the craziness, I assumed my tree would inevitably look like this one (above), filled with post-its and scattered thoughts. Thankfully, my friend Karyn decided to have some special friends come and decorate HER tree and it got me right in the holiday spirit!! Check out this very well lit tree and Santa's little helpers:

Desmond gets stoked!

Final Product! Happy Holidays!! Xo
