The original McDreamy!!

When "ER" made its debut on TV, I became an instant fan...Dr. Doug Ross, Nurse Hathaway, Carter, Mark Greene, Susan and Dr. Benton...They were a treat to watch. Gradually, each character left the show in a variety of manners, and I came to lose interest. I haven't watched the last few seasons of "ER," but when I heard that GEORGE was coming back to appear in one or two of the last episodes of the series, my interest was sparked. The details are being kept under close wraps, but photos have come out showing him on the set of the show, and I must say, he still looks just as sexy in scrubs as he did when he first appeared on the show. Uh-oh, I'm about to faint. Could someone please get Dr. Doug Ross to take my temperature?

The Obama ladies shine!!

First Lady Michelle Obama looked stunning in her inauguration ensemble, which for the record, was in the color, "lemongrass," as the designer called it. In some light, it took on a yellow tint, and in other light, more of a greenish hue. My bridesmaids wore a lime green color, so I must admit, I have a weakness for the color. The First Lady likes to wear clothes from young designers as well as from mainstream retailers. The sparkling dress with matching coat was a creation of Cuban-born American designer Isabel Toledo. If you wondered, like I did, why she didn't look cold after standing outside for the inauguration and for the parade all day long, that is because the coat had a layer of pashmina wool under it for warmth. The green gloves she wore you may actually find in your OWN closet. They were from J. Crew!


Meanwhile, how cute did Sasha and Malia Obama look?! 10-year-old Malia's royal blue coat with the blue ribbon bow at the waist and 7-year-old Sasha's pretty in pink coat with the orange scarf and satin belt were also from J.Crew's children's store. I have a feeling they are going to be fashion icons to young girls in these 4 years that we get a chance to see them grow up.


Though I wish she had picked a bold color instead of going with white, the First Lady did look like a princess in her one-shouldered gown by young designer Jason Wu for last night's inaugural ball. Next to President Obama in his debonair black tuxedo, they were a gorgeous couple, indeed.

All this fashion talk now has me geeked up for my favorite night of the year...The Academy Awards!! Nominations are announced tomorrow!! Woo Hoo! Bring on the Red Carpet arrivals!

Sheep in my kitchen

Hi,

Not sure if you heard about this. Bailey is a young sheep. He ate something that almost killed him. Our guess is Milkweed. That stuff is toxic to ruminants (things that have more than one stomach, kinda like me). So, Bailey was taken to the vet and the instructions were to get him out of the killer cold temps. Bailey wound up in our kitchen. I didn't know about this arrangement until I got home and was greeted with a "baaaa". Well, Bailey remained in the kitchen all weekend and was well enough to go outdoors on Monday! YAY! Now all that remains is "CLEAN UP IN KITCHENWARES!"

Here's the skinny on a NEW drug that's about to....

be released to the general public!
