My Youngest is 10…

My Strange Reaction to “The Book Thief” (Spoiler Alerts, People)

December 12, 2013 By Aliza Worthington 11 Comments

I went to see “The Book Thief” with a friend a few weeks ago. I knew nothing about it except it was set in Nazi Germany and involved a girl joining a new family. My friend and I discussed how we really do enjoy seeing a movie knowing little about the plot, as we like […]

Not Smarter Than a Fourth-Grader

December 11, 2013 By Aliza Worthington 17 Comments

This morning on the way to school, my fourth-grader and I had the following conversation. Him:  Did you know sloths move so slowly that sometimes they mistake their arm for a branch, reach for it, and then fall to their deaths? Me:  Sloths have arms? Him:  Yeah!  Of course they do. Me:  Sloths don’t have […]

Happy ANYTHING, Okay?

December 2, 2013 By Aliza Worthington 31 Comments

I’m a little late with this post, as it’s already the sixth night of Chanukkah. You may have heard (if you don’t live under a rock) that it coincided with Thanksgiving this year, and travel, and blah, blah, blah – so apologies for tardiness. However, it is NOT too late to discuss the nuttiness that […]

My Tattooed Teenager

November 8, 2013 By Aliza Worthington 16 Comments

She’d been asking for years.  My firstborn, with the red hair and creamy skin, wanted a tattoo.  For years she’s been asking. The child who, if she could, would paint her room a different color every other month.  The child who, if her parents could, would ask them to rearrange the furniture in her room every other […]

Jew-ish

October 18, 2013 By Aliza Worthington 6 Comments

Author’s Note:  I wrote this a couple of years ago for my local Patch blog.  In light of “The View’s” recent “discussions” and comments about Jews – you can read about it here and here – I thought it was worth re-publishing. Perfect!!!  I thought of this about a month or so ago as a way […]

About Aliza Worthington

Brooklyn-ite at heart, Baltimore in geography, city girl regardless. I aim to elevate the conversation - almost any conversation - though my occasional episodes of sarcasm and profanity don't always have that effect. Come hang out anyway. Usually I'll buy your drink, and I tip really well. Read more >>>
