The “Weeds” working mom conundrum

April 9, 2007

One of my fave celeb working moms does it again

March 29, 2007

When the New York Times dissed Gwen Stefani’s latest album, I came to her defense (the “new mom brain” excuse, if you care.) Well, last night’s episode of American Idol proved me right.  Not only did Gwen look fab, but her rocking performance proved that faux-hawks are out and fo-real working moms are in (ok, that [...]

Celebrity working mom, Kelly Ripa, in last week’s issue of Us Weekly: I’m lucky to have my job, but it has never been the central nervous system of my life. My husband and children and parents are.
