Diane Keaton, Ellen Page to Star in HBO Series About Blogging

Diane Keaton, Ellen Page to Star in HBO's Tilda
"Diane Keaton and Ellen Page have been cast in HBO's new Hollywood blogger pilot called TILDA.
Keaton, 64, will play the title character, a powerful and greatly feared Hollywood blogger, in the half-hour comedy. Ellen Page, 23, will costar as a creative assistant named Carolyn who's torn between following the corporate culture of her studio and following Tilda, who has a great interest in her.
Page will next be seen in this summer's Inception and Keaton will appear on the big screen in Morning Glory, due out this fall."

This sounds good. You know I love Diane Keaton and I just happen to like Ellen Page too. Sounds like a winner! Wonder when the series starts? I can't believe this news breaks just as I look at a note to myself on my desk to cancel HBO. I might have to rethink this action.

Cottage for Sale, Must be Moved | Currently Reading


[Click either photo to enlarge]

Sometimes I think I definitely have a fairy god mother who puts books I might like in the free book bin at the Post Office. I actually pounced on this one like a hen on a June bug as they say in the south. I just started it and love it already. Perfect reading for a hot almost summer day. It is sizzling outside at 92 degrees. I have a fan blowing directly at my face so I'm fine.

A Pond Would Be Fun

I never want another swimming pool after having had one. They are too much work but I wouldn't mind having a pond. This one appears to be a natural swimming hole too. My new listing has one that is full of bull frogs and I love sitting at open houses hearing them croak all day.

Four Story Townhouse With Cozy Interior Design

The renovation of this 4 story townhouse in center Park Slope is one of the first projects by The Brooklyn Home Company. It’s a great example how cool could be combination of vintage and modern elements in the one interior. The main color theme in this interior is a combination of white and natural wood of different hues. It works very well and everything looks very cozy and livable. The home is flooded with natural light through double hung windows. Click on the link to see a 12-photo slide show of this amazing renovation. I could have posted each and every one of the photos I liked them all so much. You will too...guaranteed!
