Valentine's Day Advice
I'm Alone On Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day is here and you're freaking out because you have no one to spend it with? It's not the end of the world if you don't have a date for Valentine's Day do something nice for yourself. Go to the market and buy yourself chocolate covered strawberries or treat yourself to a massage. This is your day to be good to yourself. Strike up a conversation with the person who strikes your fancy at your favorite coffee shop. Tell them that you like their smile. There's nothing like making someone feel good about themself. You might spend the following weekend with this person.
What's An Exciting Thing to Do On Valentine's Day?
Valentine's Day is very overrated. Restaurants charge triple, and the pressure to please your partner could either kill you or make you broke. Not everyone can afford to by the Tiffany bracelet. Be spontaneous, and unpredictable by doing something your partner least expects. If you have kids have them build a fort in your family room (You know it was made with love) order a pizza, open a bottle of wine and watch a romantic movie with your honey. Yes, alot of women love flowers and candy but we're all running to the gym to stay in shape...are we really going to eat the candy?
Roses are nice but very predictable. Be creative and mysterious which can be very sexy. If you keep the spice in the relationship you'll never be bored.
Happy Valentine's Day!

ANOTHER BIRTHDAY COME AND GONE By Lisa Conrad Cohen
It’s been exactly thirteen days and nine hours since I turned another year older and as I sit and reflect on the events of my life I have to say it’s been quite a journey. I have only a few regrets, some of which are not sleeping with a handful of men who might have been really great in bed! Another regret is not traveling to Europe when I had the chance to go in my twenties. I went to Rome and Florence in my forties pregnant with my second child and walked up the Spanish Steps every night. I missed out on the wonderful Italian wines but made up for it by eating three gelatos a day. And the only other regret I have is not grabbing opportunities as they were presented to me. The things I could have achieved were endless. Grab those opportunities as they come to you. So now here I am doing things I never expected to be doing. I have a wonderful man, two amazing daughters, six handsome and very smart stepsons, a lovely home, two adorable dogs, an amazing group of friends, I can still fit into my size 6 jeans, no hot flashes yet, enjoy sex more than ever, appeared on a TV show, wrote articles that have been published, have a growing business, have done numerous radio shows, haven’t done botox…yet, having a ball every Friday at AFL with the most talented actors, writing my book... OY VEY…I’m exhausted and it’s GREAT!!! I love my life and I wouldn’t change a thing. So on that note believe in yourself, keep a positive attitude, love yourself, follow your dreams, if you try and fail, at least you know you tried. It will make you stronger and wiser. Wisdom goes a long way. Here’s to Life!!

New Years Blues No More
Now that it's getting closer to New Years Eve, don't freak out if you have nothing to do. New Years can be very overrated. Spending New Year's Eve with someone you care about is the best way to go. It could be with a good friend, your kids, even your mother. There's no rule you have to be with a boyfriend, or at a party with wall to wall people who you couldn't care less about. There are several ways to enjoy New Years. Here's a few of my favorites:
* Have a small dinner party at your home with close friends, play games and watch the ball drop at midnight.
* Watch one of my favorites "When Harry Met Sally" with your honey, throw some lobsters in the pot and drink champagne.
* Light a fire, and have sex all night until the ball drops...the one in Times Square!!
* Take a trip to Paris (wouldn't it be nice)
* Go to the Party store and pick up noisemakers, and confetti, and enjoy bringing in the New Year with your kids. You might want to watch the early feed of the ball dropping with them so they don't have to stay up too late.
* Take a trip to New York and stay at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square, but make sure you get a room facing the ball...invite a few friends over, order room service and watch the ball drop right in front of you! Pretty cool
* And my favorite is, call everyone you love and wish them a Happy New Year...and then go to bed. That's the easiest, with the least amount of stress.
What ever you decide to do Have a Happy and Healthy 2012!
Much love,
Lisa Conrad Cohen

IT'S TIME TO FESS UP
The Muppets is not just for anyone with kids… it’s for everyone. It’s about life, hope love and teaches us how to express our true feelings, and how important it is to say what we feel before it’s too late. Once that chance comes it may never come again.
.
In the film THE MUPPETS, Mary feels pushed aside because of her boyfriend Gary’s relationship with Walter, Gary’s brother. All Mary wants is to feel like number one to Gary.
Men need to realize that women need to feel wanted, needed, appreciated and feel like #1! Without it women feel an emptiness, and an incompleteness. So a message to all guys out there… get with the program and be the knight in shining armor, and tell the woman in your life that you love her, and show it for god sakes. Remember action speaks louder than words! Not expressing your inner feelings can sabotage the relationship. It's time to fess up!
If Ashton told Demi his thoughts, before he ended up in the Jacuzzi with a twenty something year old he might have saved their marriage. He was too much of a coward to say “I’m feeling like I want to have an affair because something is missing in our marriage”. Maybe they could’ve worked it out before it was too late. Ashton could have saved Demi a lot of humiliation and embarrassment.
If Arnold had a mother fetish and told Maria “Hey I want to screw the maid because she reminds me of my mother”, at least it would have given Maria an out of the marriage and could have avoided much humiliation to the family and mostly to Maria.
Isn’t it time for men to be men and show some integrity and decency to the women in their lives.
To those men who are loyal, honest husbands and boyfriends keep it that way because believe me the grass isn’t greener.
Just ask Kermit!

Give Thanks To Those Who Matter By Lisa Conrad Cohen
Thanksgiving is a day not only to chow down on turkey,
stuffing, cranberries and my favorite dish…sweet potatoes with melted marshmallows (which is my specialty).
It’s a day to give thanks to those who matter to us. This is not only your spouse, or children but to anyone who matters in your life. So take the time to send an email or
make that quick phone call to say “Thank you for being you”. It’s only a few words that go a long way. We all need to feel recognized and appreciated by the people in our lives. Your mailman, the gardener, your kids, your mother-n-law…well maybe not your mother-n-law. It doesn’t have to be about giving something materialistically. It’s giving from your heart which matters the most. It’s showing the person how you feel and showing them how important their feelings are to you. You may be the shyest, most introverted person who can’t express these feelings. Take the chance and watch what happens. There are those who we all know who might not know how to embrace it because of never being told “I Love You” or are insecure and unhappy with themselves. This is more the reason to reach out to those who matter and just do it.
You’ll thank me that you did.
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Ashton and Demi
I talked about Ashton and Demi on KFI AM radio the other day with host Lisa Ann Walter.
The problem with older women dating younger men is the mommy syndrome, and don't let anyone tell you differently. Ashton is probably in love with his mom, as he is with Demi. Once Demi gets busy doing other things such as her kids, movies, and other projects, Ashton feels that the attention is taken off of him so he goes elsewhere to get it. This is where he gets into trouble ending up in a jacuzzi with twenty something girl and can't take it back. It's too late and now he's really up sh_t's creek without a paddle or is he? Is Demi willing to take him back? The one thing about women is they will forgive where men won't. But they will never forget. If Demi did that to Ashton he would never take her back and that's the truth! I love Maria Shriver for sticking to her guns after Arnold blew it. More power to you Maria!! Once a woman takes a man back she will always hold that over him. And if you don't believe it ask any woman you know whose husband cheated on her. To all the men out there who are thinking of cheating on their fantastic, sexy, mother of their kids, DON'T DO IT!!! You'll never hear the end of it and that's no lie. If you're even on the verge of doing it tell her first so she can do whatever it takes to stop you. Give her the benefit of the doubt...she deserves nothing less!!
