Pinterest Interest - Magic Make-up


Pinterest Interest – Magic Make-up

Make-up pin for everyday day items
-       Take a board that is a giant magnet. Add magnetic tape to the back of small make-up items. Place items on magnet board. Viola!

Make-up pin for small item storage
-       Office supplies make the best store containers! For small items that you may have an abundance of small office storage items are fabulous. Keep track of all the small stuff by sorting out what you have into categories and assigning them all a place.

Make-up pin travel tip
-       There are a variety of pins for make-up toiletries and travel know-how. The best tip is to get a palette that has a variety of make-up in it. Palettes fit nicely into any make-up travel case and have all the essentials from blush to lip-gloss.

Behind the Booth


Well I was super nervous and jittery but I made it through. To take a step back, one of the more stressful jobs on our show is that of the executive producer. This is the person who times out the segments and keeps the flow of the conversation going. Finally, it was my turn to put on the black headset, press a few buttons and produce a segment… or three.

As the only one in the office that day, there wasn’t a choice if I could produce the segments. Nope it was more of a, “If Ron is off and Char is our then who does that leave? Oh… ME!” situation.


Here is out it works out. Each segment it given a predetermined amount of time. My job is to make sure we hit under or not more than 5 seconds over that time. I have a sheet I with questions that I need to prompt the host to ask. She has to listen to me for the next question, while keeping the conversation going with the guest. Her job is hard. I’m there to make sure everything flows smoothly; we get in all the talking points and come out close to the time. No pressure. J

Thank goodness our host, Lisa Haffner, is awesome. She just needs the questions and a 1-minute cue. Seriously, she gets really close to being exactly one minute.

The first one was a little rough. We had a testimonial video that we weren’t sure how long it took or where is should go. Second time around, I got when the best time for me to cue with time and questions was. Oddly enough right after she asks the previous question while the guest is responding. Third time, the segment basically ran itself. Graphics, video, questions time all came together in this neat little package.

Executive producing in the booth was an interesting and thrilling experience. Did I mention our show does not have room for do-overs? If we can help it the segments all must be taped in one shot. That definitely raises the stakes for everyone and we all try to achieve first time perfection.

Go Coyotes!


I love sporting events! There is something about the exciting energy in the air among spectators that is intoxicating. Hockey, by far as the highest intensity. I Grew up loving hockey. It was the only North American team sport my dad watched. To this day I've  never been to an NFL game. With hockey you get the raw masculine roman warrior like atmosphere. Hitting someone at full speed into an outer board is not only a legal move but a part of the game. The warriors move faster than anyone else as they skate on the challenge element of ice while simultaneously passing an object the size of my hand between them.  Basketball uses hands, soccer kicks up the challenge using feet and hockey  goes crazy and uses only a stick. AND they are on a real time crunch to get things done. This sport  is nothing short of well valued entertainment. 

As a gal who likes sports, but does not breath them every day, I will still always go to a hockey game. I especially enjoy rooting for my home team the Phoenix Coyotes. As a newer team without a stanly cup in their name, the have something to prove. The hunger for a win is there. They have been literally fighting for their livelihood as the were without an owner for a few years. Now that the dust of being purchased and their fate is finally set in Arizona they can truly focus on the task at hand... Winning a stanly cup.   

Do yourself a favor and go see a coyotes game. They play fast and strong. The fans love to howl. And most of all there is a ton of action on the ice. If you want to splurge sit center ice by the rink. If you're lucky a coyote may check someone into the boards by your seat.

There is nothing like a great goal. Check out this AMAZING show by Coyotes' goalie Mike Smith!
