Happy Birthday Girlfriends – and Tina Tessina

Friday, January 14th, 2011
If birthdays are about doing exactly what you want to do then Tina Tessina and I are both following the rules (for a change). I turned 45 in November and I did several of my favorite things. One of them is performance art in my living room. See photos above. To catch the hula hooping in action, with the sounds of Naked Raygun, Go to YouTube. Tina Tessina had a birthday this month and her party is on Saturday..Tomorrow! I'm one of the lucky people who gets to be there. Happy Birthday Tina! Tina holds her birthday party at Vintage Tea Leaf on Broadway in Long Beach where she's somewhat of a regular. She loves tea, she loves Vintage Tea Leaf and we all love her birthday parties and the opportunity to be girls and play dress up and sip tea. Here's a video from last year. I hope it inspires you to do something light, fun, playful and caring with good people.

A Tea Party Toast for Tina Tessina

Thursday, January 21st, 2010
This past Sunday I realized one of the many ways my Toastmasters training comes in handy. In this video, you'll see how the hostess of the party invites each person in attendance to light a candle and "tell the birthday girl why you're glad she was born." None of us was prepared for this speech, including me. However, thanks to my many hours of training in Toastmasters, I have improved my impromptu speaking skills. Toastmasters helps you to think on your feet and teaches you skills like vocal variety, body language and storytelling. After I told Tina why I'm glad she was born, someone said "good speech". I simply held my hands out, shrugged my shoulders and replied, "Toastmasters!" Toastmasters is an International organization. Find out more on their website.
