On the one hand, My Road to Orange Is The New Black is a beautiful, inspiring open letter by Uzo Aduba, AKA Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren. She writes about her mother's life as a Nigerian immigrant, and how supportive she was as she watched her daughter work through rejection and other difficulties that came with a life in theatre.
Aduba—like many actors—had a difficult time breaking into the industry, one that now showers her with Emmy nominations and acclaim (all extremely well-deserved). But what took so long? There's something infuriating about the fact that someone so talented had to struggle so much to get to this point. At one point she writes the following:
"I heard the word "no" so often that it started to feel like a second name."
While it's encouraging and exciting to know that women of color, and women over the age of 25 are getting good, interesting roles thanks to the work of folks like OITNB creator Jenji Kohan (and of course Shonda Rhimes), there should be some kind of acknowledgement that such success is deserved and overdue. Hollywood needs to make major changes so that talents like Aduba start hearing "yes" much earlier on in their careers.

Revisiting Bunker Hill
Fifty years ago Thomas Fleming published Now We Are Enemies: The Story of Bunker Hill. As the anniversary of that pivotal Revolutionary War event approaches, and more importantly in celebration of the fifty years since the book was first published, Fleming has issued an anniversary edition of the title hoping to reach a new generation of Americans with the inspiring and complex tale of the Battle of Bunker Hill.
On Tuesday, June 15, Thomas Fleming gave a lunch-hour talk at the MHS taking the audience through his experience of writing the book. It seems the project began while he was on a trip to Boston to research an article. Fleming was traveling with his family and his son looked at a portrait of Joseph Warren and asked Fleming who he was. In searching for the answer to that question, Fleming discovered his next book. And in the process of writing it came to understand that Bunker Hill was not just any other battle. It was not a simple matter of the good guys vs the bad guys, or the amateur (American) vs the professional (British) soldiers. On that battlefield men who had fought together during the French and Indian War now stood on opposite lines; men that had lived and worked side by side, that had called each other friend, were now facing each other in battle.
Over the course of his talk Fleming highlighted the roll of the American heroes of the day, including Joseph Warren, Israel Putnam, John Stark, William Prescott, Andrew McClary, and Peter Salem (one of the free blacks fighting in Prescott's regiment). Using passages from participants own letters and diaries Fleming brought the battle and the people involved in it back to life for those sitting in audience.

my range is heated, but we have been bombarded with snow in the DC area. I practice a lot of indoor putting and just taking some swings inside my office. keeps me somewhat loose. I'm a 14 as of last year, and played while on business down in orlando for the first time of 2014, shot 89 on rented clubs, was pretty pleased. i think it was due to watching tv and putting on my mat and swinging inside the office.
it's tough for us folks who really can't play for about 3-4 months out of the year.
I've got a putting mat in my office where I do a fair amount of putting and chipping. I also putt in my living room to the SC putting cup from 2012. In addition, I've been doing TPI and hitting the range once or twice a week. The range is "heated", but it's still really cold in New England. I don't trust range balls for distance, but it's great to take some full swings and see the ball fly.
I'm just counting down the days now. We're usually playing on grass by St. Paddy's day here in Mass.
Think spring.
I'm lucky - my wife works at a boarding school in Connecticut and they have an indoor hit area for real balls and use the squash courts with foam or plastic balls off a hitting mat. When I visit my boys in Chicago we head over to TopGolf for some fun practice and beer.
I live in the PNW, so we pretty much just get wet. We're lucky that it's rarely too cold to golf, but plugging golf balls, winter rules, and multiple sets of rain gear and umbrellas gets old.
That said, we're not snowed in so some time at the covered practice range usually helps.
I swing irons mostly and hit foam balls into a mattress. Other then that I go to simulators.

Robust Champagne sales boosted profits at French luxury powerhouse LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, the company said yesterday (14 February).
LVMH, which owns Champagne brands including Moët et Chandon and Dom Perignon, saw growing demand for its fizz drive an 11% rise in earnings from its wine and spirits business in 2006.
Operating profit from the division, which also sells Hennessy Cognac and Glenmorangie Scotch whisky, reached EUR962m (US$1.3bn). Sales from the business rose 13% to just under EUR3bn. In all, group profits were up 16% to EUR3.2bn, while sales rose 10% to EUR15.3bn.
LVMH saw sales of its cuvées and rosés rise with Dom Perignon becoming the leader of the luxury Champagne segment.
Higher premium sales drove growth from Hennessy Cognac, while Glenmorangie "strengthened its position" in the US and Europe, LVMH said.
LVMH chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault said the company's performance in 2006 was "excellent". He said: "The year also confirmed the strong potential of our high growth rising star brands and the group's leading position in emerging markets. LVMH has shown record revenue in 2006 and has once again improved its profitability."
Arnault confirmed that LVMH would look at acquiring Absolut vodka if it comes on the market. However, he expects the selling price to rise above what the French group would be prepared to pay, according to reports yesterday.

Hey, sorry for the derp question, but if I were wanting to simply level my truck with the Bili 5100's, would I need new coils also, or could I just buy the shocks and set to level, with old coils? What i'm really looking for is a level ride, with maybe a 1.5-2" lift from stock. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Ethical Pet Skinneeez Wooly Sheep Stuffingless Dog Toy
She loved it and destroyed it in minutes flat!
Much smaller than I expected (not their fault)... I was going to return it but before I could the pup got to it and loved it to death in minutes flat. Two squeakers no longer squeaked. The toy itself is still in one piece and she still noses around it a bit.
I don't know... I' m thinking this is the way with squeaky toys. Yes?

Overall Good Toy
Our Potcake will rip the stuffing out of anything - so no stuffing to begin with means a toy may last more than a few hours. He still had the squeakers out within a day, but the majority of the critter is still around after a week to be played with - for us that's a win!

My dog tried to eat it.
This toy is so cute, but not good for a chewer. My Dane ate one of the legs off.
April 22, 2014
Lasted 10 minutes with my Yorkiepoo
Love the toy, but it was easliy destroyed by my yorkiepoo, she had the squeaker removed after ten minutes and a hole chewed through the skin. May be a great toy for total non-chewers, but not for those that really try to "kill" their toys.

Dog Heaven
My dogs love this white lamb stuffing free toy. My female pug carries it most everywhere with her. They have had the dogs for a few weeks and it is still intact.

Residents of the embattled Cherokee Water District in Colorado Springs have voted overwhelmingly to recall the board President.
By a margin of 82%, voters decided to oust Robert Lovato as water board President.
Among other things, they initiated the recall effort following claims his position on two local water boards created a conflict of interest.
Larry Keleher has been selected by voters to replace Lovato.

Welcome to Homegirls. You'll find a sassy sampling of décor and design tips, frank conversation about everything from holidays and homekeeping to home improvement and our picks and pans of new products, stores and events.

Spring is within reach, even though the icy roads, piles of snow and obscenely cold weather say otherwise. But there are some advantages to having spring wait just a LITTLE bit:
Hold off on spring cleaning. If the birds aren't chirping and the weather isn't conducive to hanging winter jackets, quilts, curtains and the like on the clothesline, it's too early to clean. Boots are still tracking grit through the house and carpets are looking sad after barely surviving another winter. Once we have no need for hats and scarves and snow boots are a distant memory, grab your cleaning supplies and have at it.
Stay cozy. Windchills below zero? Keep those heavy throw rugs down and don't dismiss your down comforter just yet. Give them a good shake every now and again, but wait a few weeks to wash them and tuck them away for the season. If you're itching to be out with the old, start the hunt for the spring pillows and curtains that are stored deep inside the basement in one of the many, many plastic totes.
Longer-lasting blooms. Last year my tulips were up way too early and didn't last nearly long
Daydream while looking out the windows. But don't wash them. Plenty of time for that. Wait until there's a near zero chance of snow and sleet to brighten your view. Meantime, grab a cup of coffee and ponder all the gifts spring will bring.
No dog duty. Literally. Anyone with a pet is in no hurry to see what's left behind when the snow melts.
Leave the yard alone. Early and unseasonably warm springs bring the temptation to start raking lawns way before the lawn is ready for it. Now you have no choice. Use the extra time to finish that book -- guilt-free!
Clothing clarity. With this cold snap, at least you know where you stand. When the weather is 50 one day and 15 the next, the mudroom/entry/hallway gets crowded with everyone's ... stuff. Winter coats, spring coats, thick gloves, thin gloves, snow boots, stylish boots -- once spring hits, the coat tree loses its branches. Keep the sweaters front and center; the linen will just have to wait.
But this is Minnesota; a week from now it could be 60. But I won't be washing windows yet. Putting away my Christmas lights? Perhaps.
What are you doing -- or not doing -- to get your home ready for spring?
Move over, Tuscan. There's a new ethnic style influence emerging in fashion-forward showrooms and home interiors. Think tribal masks, zebra stripes and all things African.
African-inspired decor was recently identified as a top trend for 2013 by Freshome, a design and architecture blog. (http://freshome.com/2013/01/29/top-10-interior-design-trends-for-2013/) The style is considered "dynamic and exotic ... bringing warm colors and animal-skin imitations back into the eclectic interiors of fashion enthusiasts." We'll be seeing more wooden furniture decorated with carvings or wrought iron, sculptures and handmade decorations in the months ahead, according to Freshome.
It makes sense. The bold graphic patterns and rustic elements we associate with African style marry well with the simple, modern aesthetic that is also trending upward.
I don't see a lot of African-influenced decor here in frozen Minnesota, but I did see a spectacular example recently: an entire house designed to reflect a local couple's love for their favorite place. Watch for a story and photo gallery in an upcoming edition of the Sunday Homes section.
In the meantime, what do you like best about African style? Were you ahead of the curve, with African influences already incorporated into your home's decor?
I have a love-hate relationship with the Parade of Homes. As a house junkie, I love looking at gorgeously staged rooms, trophy kitchens and state-of-the-art fixtures and finishes.
But I always come home a bit discouraged with my own humble dwelling. Everything looks a little shabbier and more outdated after gazing at all that pristine, styled perfection.
The most luxurious homes are the best -- and the worst. They offer great eye candy, but the contrast between somebody else's dream home and my reality can be pretty stark.
I know the Parade is supposed to be for people who are thinking about building a home, and are looking for ideas and resources. But I also know there are a lot of gawkers like me who just like to fantasize about living in the sorts of homes they never will.
My own personal "Dream Home" is probably a cozy cottage or a warm Mediterranean-style home with a red-tile roof. But that doesn't mean I can't appreciate Dream Homes with a very different aesthetic.
I got a sneak preview of one of this year's Dream Homes last week, the day before the Parade opened. It's sleek, modern and high-tech, with state-of-the-art everything and a black, white and gray color palette. It felt cool and calm, even with people running all around arranging wine bottles in the cellar and elegant vases on the tabletops.
What would it be like to actually live in a house like that? Would such a clean, uncluttered space inspire a cleaner, less-cluttered life? Or would we soon overrun it with knick-knacks, disorganized bills, newspapers, magazines and tufts of dog fur?
I know the answer to that question, unfortunately!
How about you? Do you check out the Parade of Homes just to gawk? What kinds of houses do you like to look at?
Consider me inspired. I spent some time yesterday wandering the Home & Garden Show, always a fertile place for ideas on the home front. I had spring fever, so I lingered in the display gardens, where this year's theme is classic TV shows.
A garden inspired by "I Dream of Jeannie"? Yep. And "Miami Vice" and "Gilligan's Island." The nine TV-inspired gardens are a blast to stroll through. Don't miss 'em!
But even if you're not planning something that elaborate for your own landscape this year, you'll still find plenty of ideas and resources for beautifying your home, both inside and out.
Greengirls, the Star Tribune's garden bloggers, will be at the show to dish the dirt.
Want to be in the know on what's new? Tonight at 6 p.m., you can learn about the hottest garden trends, from edible landscapes to the latest water features, presented by Greengirls Connie Nelson, Mary Jane Smetanka and Helen Yarmoska -- on the Lifestyle Stage.
Stick around after the presentation for free seed packets and gardening calendars, which will be handed out between 7 and 8 p.m. in the garden area.
If you can't make the show tonight, the Greengirls also will be making the show this weekend, handing out free sees and gardening calendars, and answering your toughest garden questions. On Friday, March 1, 5:30-6:30 p.m., the Greengirl of the day will be Helen Yarmoska. And on Saturday, March 2, 11 a.m.-noon, it's Martha Buns.
Come say "Hi," pick up your free seeds, and check out a garden fit for a genie -- or a shipwrecked castaway.
You can't miss the media blitz trumpeting this weekend's arrival of the Parade of Homes and the Home & Garden Show, both signs that spring is finally within reach.
The timing couldn't be more perfect. I'm sick of the inside of my house and am ready to focus on the outside, even though the inside is still in desperate need of my attention. I'm ready to throw open the windows, trade my painting tools for garden tools and start dreaming about making my yard into a backyard oasis. When it comes to dreams, I don't mess around. I dream big -- otherwise why bother? -- and I let the dreams stay with me through all the home shows, garden displays and magazine spreads. Reality will kick in soon enough.
Dream 1: The 12x12 cement slab is converted to a huge paved patio -- half of it covered -- that will become our outdoor "living space." Bugs are not allowed, but a fire pit is.
Dream 2: Said patio also includes a living room's worth of furniture, complete with a chair for napping. Outdoor naps are pretty hard to beat. And if my table should all of a sudden appear with legs that aren't corroded, all the better.
Dream 3: We'll say goodbye to our trusty grill to make room for an outdoor kitch
Dream 4: My salsa garden is now a flower bed filled with daisies and some of my other favorite blooms because I now have a larger vegetable garden -- and time in my life to maintain it.
Dream 5: Privacy will become a reality, thanks to the line of shrubs I will plant and the fact that our trees will grow eight feet this spring. Wait, this is a dream: someone else will plant the shrubs for me.
Dream 6: Our past-its-prime siding will be replaced and I will finally paint my front door the turquoise I've been eyeing.
Dream 7: I will be able to maintain my new living space, along with the flower pots, beds, herb garden, etc. the entire summer. I will NOT give up by the end of July.
Do you have spring fever? What are some things you're looking forward to accomplishing this summer? Dream on!

Hi all, I've set up my hop garden with a central pole arrangement and I'm going to train the bines up to the pole from hop hills 10-12ft spaced out around the base. My question is, being even more of a novice in the garden than I am in the brewhouse, what to use for the lines up to the top of the poles? I got some "training wire' from home depot yesterday but it's very still wire that can be bent into shape - I'm thinking that's not the ticket for this job - any thoughts? I also picked up some jute twine, that looks more like the right sort of thing, but is it substantial enough to support the bines when they get going, and, maybe next year, start bearing some flowers? Thanks for any ideas!
I use "sisal"...available at Wallyworld and other fine establishments... Two weekends ago I had dried dirt. Last weekend my hops were sprouting from 3-14". This week some of them are about waist high.
Hemp rope would also be another good alternative.... heh its using something from the same family :-p

Well for me the most valuable property is sparetime. I don't like wasting my time and I think this is true for all - editors, users, what ever. So IMHO editing profiles, that could be generated is wasting time. Having to read a whole book, where a tool could give you a path - is wasting time. I like to decide myself, when I just like to use something and when I like to learn more about something. That was the reason for me, to write a tool that pulls the information out of the book and gives me a path for installation. > I have no issues with perl scripts to add functionality to the tool. No problem at all. It was my choice to learn perl and the script was a good example. Monitoring the list I read about the problems with the new xml-format and as the buildin tools died with the cvs-versions of the book, I wrote my own xml-engine. (I have some experience in C++, so if you like to integrate some features in nALFS - and like me to do some porting - let me know.) Checking the errors I could find bugs in my script, but I could also find "suboptimal" content in the book. I think, it should be possible and desirable, changing the book-content so that the HTML-version meets the perception of the editors and the XML-version contains all information neccesary for automated processing without any manual editing of profiles or whatever beside the book. Cheers Reinhard

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
More talk needed about cervical cancer
Women encouraged to take Pap tests, create dialogue
Two Winnipeg health care professionals want women to start talking — about cervical cancer.
"We want to encourage people to engage in dialogue with friends and family, as there are some things we don't talk about," said Lesley Dyck, a recruitment and health promotions specialist for CervixCheck, CancerCare Manitoba.
On the heels of National Cervical Cancer Awareness Week, CervixCheck, CancerCare Manitoba's cervical screening program is highlighting the importance of having Pap tests (or smears) to help prevent cervical cancer at telleverywoman.ca.
Women are often reluctant to talk about cervical cancer and Pap tests because it is caused by HPV — a common sexually transmitted infection which can be contracted through sexual contact, including intercourse, oral sex or intimate touching, Dyck said.
It's recommended that a woman should begin having tests within three years of becoming sexually active, and then have one every two years, Dyck added.
"It's the common cold of STIs, but it has negative connotations. There are different ways to create a conversation, such as dialogue between men and women or creating a conversation on Facebook or Twitter," she said.
In fact, HPV is surprisingly common, as three out of four men and women will be infected with it at some point in their lifetime. Dyck said while most cases don't cause cancer, HPV can cause abnormal changes on the cervix.
About 60% of women in Manitoba diagnosed with cervical cancer have not had a Pap test in five years or more. Each year, approximately 45 women in the province are diagnosed with the disease. Regular Pap tests can prevent up to 80% of cervical cancer.
Kim Barrett, a community health nurse at Youville Centre in St. Vital, said the facility offers several services, including pap tests and a Teen Clinic. Staff will also provide group presentations to organizations that work with Canadian newcomers, such as René Deleurme Centre.
Barrett said a Pap test is focused on the cervix — the lower part of the uterus, which joins the womb to the vagina — and only takes a few minutes.
"A women lies on her back on the examination table with her feet in foot rests. She is dressed from the waist up and draped in a blanket from the waist down," she said.
"A speculum is then used to slightly open the vagina and lights up to see the cervix. Once in, some cells are collected using a spatula and a little brush. It's not painful, but it can be uncomfortable or awkward."
There are numerous Pap clinics across Winnipeg, including Hope Centre Health Care, Klinic Community Health Care, Mount Carmel Clinic and Pembina Medical Clinic.
For more information, visit telleverywoman.ca. To learn more about Youville Centre, visit youville.ca or call 204-255-4840.

Critical Essay by Sophie Marret
SOURCE: Marret, Sophie. "Metalanguage in Lewis Carroll." SubStance 22, nos. 2-3 (1993): 217-27.
In the following essay, Marret examines the Alice books and The Hunting of the Snark in conjunction with Dodgson's nonfiction work on symbolic logic.
The modernity of Lewis Carroll's literary work lies in the reversal of his own theses in the field of logic. Indeed, his intuitions about the role of the subject, discernible in his literary writing, seem to condemn rationality, which nonetheless is one of the foundations of the Alice books. Symbolic Logic, the handbook to which he devoted the end of his life, would thus appear as an ultimate attempt to save ontology, imperilled by his literary work.
The mathematization and formalization of logic that developed in the second half of the nineteenth century tried to extricate this science from natural languages...

This print, the first in a series, is my small attempt to deal with cancer. Combining a highly realistic and sensitive drawing of the human form with an invented and arbitrarily imposed geometry reveals something of the insidious feeling of invasion. This, along with the text, is intended to relate the pervasive and tragic nature of the disease.

What's the difference between this version and pro?
The odds are against you. Big time. It seems like the higher you bet, the crappier the cards get and the better the dealers cards get.
Just feel rigged though I hope the game is not I one 32 games and I been playing for a year no when I play pro I'm always winning so thanks for this game
Great game
Good i like this.
Nice and entertaining

Hillcrest median real estate price is $80,852, which is less expensive than 72.8% of South Carolina neighborhoods and 86.8% of all U.S. neighborhoods.
The average rental price in Hillcrest is currently $885, based on NeighborhoodScout's exclusive analysis. The average rental cost in this neighborhood is higher than 82.9% of the neighborhoods in South Carolina.
Hillcrest is a suburban neighborhood (based on population density) located in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
Hillcrest real estate is primarily made up of small (studio to two bedroom) to medium sized (three or four bedroom) apartment complexes/high-rise apartments and single-family homes. Most of the residential real estate is renter occupied. Many of the residences in the Hillcrest neighborhood are established but not old, having been built between 1970 and 1999. A number of residences were also built between 1940 and 1969.
Vacant apartments or homes are a major fact of life in Hillcrest. The current real estate vacancy rate here is 20.4%. This is higher than the rate of vacancies in 85.4% of all U.S. neighborhoods. This can sometimes be the case in neighborhoods dominated by seasonal homes (such as vacation areas), and occasionally it is also found in neighborhoods that are primarily filled with college students, as some apartments could be vacant when school is not in session. But often neighborhoods with vacancy rates this high are places that can be plagued by a protracted vacancy problem. If you live here, you may find that a number of buildings in your neighborhood are actually empty.

DescriptionBea Frazier hoped she'd rediscover her incredible self after divorcing Jimmy. But being home alone with three daughters brings her demons back with a vengeance. The only solution is to reunite her family. The trouble is, her ex is about to marry someone else. Tessa King has finally found true love, but her knight in shining armor comes with three sullen daughters and an ex who doesn't seem nearly "ex" enough. After years of singledom, what does Tessa have to do to finally live happily ever after? As the two women negotiate carpools, puberty, and family loyalties, each finds it almost impossible not to fall into the old clichÉ of the bitter first wife and the wicked stepmother. But if Bea and Tessa are brave enough, they just may find a friend where they once saw an enemy. . . . Absorbing and touching, humorous and honest, The Stepmother reminds us that there is always another side to the story. About the AuthorCarrie Adams is the author of The Godmother, which is being adapted for film. She lives in London with her husband and three children. Praise for The Stepmother…"A refreshingly honest, realistic, and clever look at family, love, and the tangling up of several lives. You will laugh and nod your head in recognition, all while racing through the pages to see how it comes together. I absolutely adored this book!" |

"When a heart breaks, there isn't any sound, but an echo, that goes around carrying all those precious moments spent together."
Saurav Kalra
"The secret of life is to appreciate the pleasure of being terribly deceived"
Oscar Wilde
"Passions spin the plot: We are betrayed by what is false within."
George Meredith
"Naturally, when one makes progressive steps, there may be some who see it as a betrayal of their goals and interests."
Louis Farrakhan
"Betrayal was a stone beneath the mattress of the bed you shared, something you felt digging into you no matter how you shifted position. What was the point of being able to forgive, when deep down, you both had to admit you'd never forget?"
Jodi Picoult
"I thought he was my friend, but he betrayed me. If someone points a gun at you and shoots and it doesn't go off, what would you do? If someone is pointing a gun at you and they start putting more bullets into the gun, what would you do?"
Carlton Dotson
"There were no indicators we should expect something like this ... There is a tremendous sense of disappointment and betrayal."
Carl Stephens
"He would stab his best friend for the sake of writing an epigram on his tombstone."
"We forget cruelty and past betrayal, Heedless of where the next bright bolt may fall"
Robert Graves
"It is difficult for me to talk to you because I really feel duped. More importantly, I feel you betrayed millions of readers ... As I sit here today, I don't know what is true, and I don't know what isn't."

Brooke Williamson's entire life has always been about food. Ever since she can remember, Williamson wanted to become a chef or a restaurateur. After working with some of the country's top chefs, her dream has finally been realized in the form of successful ventures such as Amuse Café, Beechwood, and projects with chef-husband Nick Roberts, Hudson House in Redondo Beach, The Tripel and 4-in-1 concept Playa Provisions in Playa Del Rey.
A native of Los Angeles, Williamson began her culinary career at a young age as a teacher's assistant at the Epicurean Institute of Los Angeles. Williamson began working in professional kitchens at the age of 18 as a pastry assistant at Fenix at the Argyle Hotel under Chef Ken Frank. As her star quality began to shine, Chef Michael McCarty took notice and invited the young chef to work at his acclaimed Santa Monica restaurant, Michael's under executive Chef Sang Yoon. Within one year she became sous chef at Michael's. Two years later, Williamson headed to the East Coast to intern at the celebrated restaurant Daniel in New York. She then returned to Los Angeles, where she was appointed executive chef at L.A. restaurant, Boxer. Williamson then continued her culinary career as executive chef of Zax in Brentwood, raising the bar on seasonal American cuisine by infusing local ingredients from Southern California with more diverse and global flavors. During her time at Zax, she was honored by media outlets such as the Los Angeles Times and Forbes as a culinary mastermind. She was also invited to cook at the James Beard house, being the youngest ever female chef to do so. After leaving Zax, Williamson and fellow Zax partner Nick Roberts opened Amuse Café and later Beechwood in Venice, where Williamson and Roberts earned the title "Rising Star Chefs" by StarChefs.
Along with Roberts, Williamson opened the American gastropub, Hudson House, in March 2009, and The Tripel in Playa Del Rey, in April 2011. Their most recent venture, Playa Provisions, is a 4-in-1 concept which includes an ice cream shop (with all ice creams made in house) to be called Small Batch; a market counter serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, to be called King Beach; a back-room whiskey bar called Grain; and a more high-end dining space dedicated to seafood called Dockside. In her day-to-day operations, Williamson is responsible for running the front and back of house and creating all specialty cocktails, wine and beer menus. In 2010 Williamson also became certified by The Court of Master Sommeliers. She finds that her truest inspiration, aside from good food and libations, comes from her son and restaurant namesake, Hudson. Other than spending time with her beloved family, Williamson loves running, hiking, traveling, and spending hours wandering around the supermarket.
Williamson was recently the runner up on Top Chef Season 10 in Seattle which has catapulted her to "Celebrity Chef" status. Brooke is currently starring as a host and mentor on MTV's first foodie series House of Food, and recently won her battle on the popular Esquire series Knife Fight. Brooke has also appeared as a guest on Watch What Happens Live, Hallmark Channel's Home & Family, and international talk show Arise 360.
