candy tamano posted a blog postFrom trash to treasure
“One man’s garbage is another man’s gold.”Coming from a culture where one never throws away their belongings but rather passes it down to the next generation, it always amazes me the stuff that people throw out or leave on the curb (here in the US) for the garbage truck to haul away!My sister-in-law has the best luck when it comes to picking up pre-loved furniture that people dispose of on the curb. One of the advantages of living in her part of Long Island is that people throw out quality,…See More
candy tamano posted a blog postHave kids, will travel (top ten tips on traveling with kids)
I admit I am a bit of a worry wart. Sometimes I sweat the small stuff. I can’t help myself but agonize over details. But nothing makes me more anxious than traveling with my 3 kids, aged 8 and 4 year old twins. Especially traveling 18 hours halfway across the globe! The last time my husband and I traveled overseas with child, was 6 years ago when our now 8-yr old was only 2. Now that our family has gone from party of 3 to party of five, the stress level for traveling has gone up quite a few…See More

I love that Girls is fresh, raw and best of all authentic. The dialogue is always crisp, in your face and completely edgy.…See More
candy tamano posted a blog postDreaming of sunshine series part 2
SUN LOVERS HAVEN # 4 ST. LUCIAOne of the advantages of traveling to St. Lucia or any of the Caribbean Islands, is its proximity to the east coast. Just a few hours of jetting and you’re in paradise.St. Lucia is simply stunning. Located midway down the eastern Caribbean chain, between Martinique and St. Vincent, this exotic destination is only 14 miles wide and 27 miles long. On the eastern shore of the island is the Atlantic Ocean while its west coast delivers the calmer seas of the…See More
candy tamano commented on Courtenay Harris Bond's blog post 'You Can "Argo F--k Yourself" At Our Cinema'"Great anecdote. I related on so many levels. Totally agree that Affleck was great in Argo, both as director and actor. Also your experience of enjoying solitude in a movie theater.
