Hello everyone! Sorry about the silence on this end. How was your Thanksgiving? Ours was a blast; Talika’s family is wonderfully warm and welcoming. It was great to meet all the various members of her family and figure out where she got her eyes and her cheeks and her smile! I love meeting people’s parents, [...]

The documentary I co-produced “Sand and Sorrow”, about the Darfur crisis, airs Thursday Dec 6th at 8p on HBO– that’s two weeks from this Thanksgiving. Please spread the word! Tell everyone you know! I would at least like people to TALK about it even if they don’t watch it. Also, if you want, check out [...]

I wrote about the Hothouse on LAist! Take a look. Oh, the hothouse is where Bren performs and has taken classes and generally rocks the house everytime he takes the stage. -x-aarti

This is actually Kuv’s idea. When she came to visit, she was intrigued by the thing I’m going to write about, and was so taken by it that she said, “Aarth, you should write about all these cool things you find at the supermarket!”. So here we go. Thanks Kuv! I love this idea. Makes [...]

I have been a bit lacking in the inspiration department guys, sorry! I open this page up nearly every day and stare at it and then out of the window hoping for something interesting that I can write about. Sigh. I will say that I am enjoying the cooler weather and the related bounty at [...]
