Some of you still have celebrating to do. Wishing you the best holiday ever!
I think I may have a touch of what my husband had. I've been coughing and hacking for...

Ah, Christmas. Crying babies in fake Santas' arms. People worshipping the birth of Jesus by battling it out for material possessions. Horns honking as cars fight for dominance on the way to Grandma's. But I do have some fond...

This guy right here has been my boyfriend for a little over a year now. He has been amazing so far and goes out of his way to do things for me and spend time with me. My family met him at my graduation in May and my dad was unsure...

I had latkes for breakfast the other morning. They were very good. I didn't have the time to make them from scratch, so I bought frozen ones from Trader Joe's, and heated them up in the oven.

Happy Hanukah to all the Jewish members of MyLot.
In Laguna Beach, they set up an annual menorah made of surfboards on Main Beach, which I thought I would share with my friends here.
I hope this Festival of Lights is a special...

In the United States (and most other European-related countries), Christmas is a time of gift-giving and celebration. For Christians, it is a time to remember the birth of Christ. We all know it is not the actual day of his birth,...

I think I heard on the radio that...

The last time I was in New York City was in September 1985 and the last time I lived in New York City was 1969. I don't see myself ever going back but there are certain times, certain memories I have of life in the city that will...

I grew up in an extended family of Christians, Jews and Freethinkers. I don't really celebrate certain Holidays more than others. I just kind of go with the flow. But I did remember at the last minute yesterday that Hanukkah began...

I'm somewhat familiar with different holiday celebrations at this time of year: Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule and Winter Solstice. But what about the pet family members? How can you include them in celebrations for these...

I am sick of people telling Christians that saying Merry Christmas is politically incorrect! Why do these people insist on saying that "Merry Christmas", is offensive. Please tell what about that Phrase is offensive. If you don't...
