When you were little, did you imagine having a mysterious animal who would love and protect and understand you? A horse to carry you away from your problems, a dog to guide you through the forest, a cat who was really a familiar? In the world of fantasy books, films, and television shows, that’s very often [...]
............to look a lot like Christmas! Xena and I took a walk around La Jolla this morning. Here are just a few of the snaps I took of the Christmas decorations on display. So, how many of you have your Christmas decorations up?
The Beast of Backslope is the second in The Sherlock Files series by Nashville author Tracy Barrett. (Interesting side note: Eldest Daughter knows Ms. Barrett since they both teach in the language department at Vanderbilt University.) Xena and Xander are American kids living in England with their parents, part-time detectives, and descendants of the famous [...]
The Photo Gallery has been updated with a new photo gallery for the female-dominated action film,”Bitch Slap.” “Bitch Slap” is a post-modern, thinking man’s throwback to the “B” Movie/Exploitation films of the 1950’s – 70’s as well as a loving, sly parody of same. Inspired by the likes of “Dragstrip Girls,” “Faster Pussycat,...
I thought after Zena was canceled we would never see Lucy Lawless again. But I was wrong apparently, because here she is in some show called "The Pleasuredome" dressed in various revealing outfits. Lucy Lawless welcomed a mostly lesbian crowd to The Pleasuredome at the Roxy Theater over the weekend. The show's press release explains it as: “The Pleasuredome” brings the audience...
I have a food dehydrator and find that it’s wonderful for drying excess food from my garden — fruits and veggies. I also use it to dry other plants, especially herbs. I inherited my green thumb (and love of animals) from my Grandma. She always had a huge garden that included herbs of many kinds. She [...]
No readings today, obviously. Instead, because I just realized that it exists, I would like to direct you to some Thanksgiving-themed fan fiction . There is so much of it out there that I am going to name it Thanksfic. Harry Potter Thanksfic : The Room of Requirement was now a Muggle kitchen and he was attempting to put the turkey in the oven without Sirius destroying his hard work. Peter Pettigrew...
When I started contributing to this blog, I knew I would feel at home, even though I’m a Geek Mom among Geek Dads. But I’ve quickly discovered that there are a lot more Geek Moms out there than I thought. Case in point: this photo was sent to me by Vanessa, a GeekDad reader: Warrior Princesses! “My daughter recently [...]
It’s easy to cook (or bake) for my husband and my dogs: They’ll eat anything I make. Which I enjoy, by the way! But cats are not so easy. Xena, our tabby, is particularly finicky but after using her as one of my taste testers for my book “The Ultimate Cat Treat Cookbook” I’ve come up with [...]
Andrew Sullivan writes about Sarah Palin's book, and her claim, yet again, that she went into labor, yet continued to give a speech in Dallas. Take one story that every mother will relate to: the drama of her delivery of her fifth child, Trig. She tells us that at eight months pregnant with a child she knew had Down’s syndrome and would need special care at birth, she got on a plane from Alaska...
Sorry that this post is coming super late but when the international fashion weeks were ACTUALLY happening, my internet was shaped and viewing collections on style.com was super dooper painful. I managed to download some style.com videos during my off-peak internet time though. Gotta love their little recaps. Some say "skip the commentary, just show the clothes!" but I say no runway review...
When we watched Uma Thurman will herself back to life and become totally kickass in Kill Bill after those initial painstaking toe movements, what we didn't stop to consider was that the yellow jumpsuit-wearing martial arts master was using a stunt double most of the time. Her name is Zoë Bell. A 31-year-old Kiwi, and she has also doubled for Xena: Warrior Princess, and had acting roles in Death...
I watched discs 3 & 4 of BSG Season 4.0 in about, oh, 2 days, because (a) I'm obsessed and (B) I'm procrastinating writing a paper. Bad Luna, bad! At any rate, here's my thoughts as I watched the episodes: ++ I don't like Sam purely because I'm a Kara/Lee shipper, but that scene where Kara's like, "All I wanna do is frak" and they tear into each other? HOT. So so hot. Somewhere, someone...
One of the joys of any production from Sam Raimi or his longtime producing partner Rob Tapert— Spider-Man, Xena, Hercules —is the guest appearance of Raimi's irrepressibly goofy brother, Ted, so it's with great pleasure that we learn the erstwhile Joxer will make a return appearance on Raimi/Taper's newest TV show, the syndicated fantasy Legend of the Seeker .
Burbank, California, September 14, 2009 – Storytelling magic comes alive with the adaptation of the internationally best-selling “Sword of Truth” novels, in Legend of the Seeker: The Complete First Season, coming to DVD on Oct. 13, 2009 from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment.
Sex may now have a contender in the most-fun-you-can-have-without-laughing stakes. For Legend of the Seeker (Sci-Fi) is here. It is a sword-and-sorcery epic from Sam Raimi and the team behind Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, as well as its spin-off Xena: Warrior Princess.
