<span style="text-align: center;">One of the highlights of my life was getting to meet Adam West at my first-ever San Diego Comic Con. It was the same Con where my now-husband and I started dating. Mr. West and his wife were so beyond nice. He loved a Jewish Humor Calendar that I had published, and took a separate picture with it to help me promote it. We happened to find him on a random aisle, and there was no line to see him, so we got to chat with him for a while. He was everything I'd hoped he be and more. The picture we took with him has been on display in our household since we first got married. He was and always will be my favorite Batman.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: center;">This hug is for him. It's for all of us who miss him already. Below are some photos of meeting Adam West, and how his version of Batman played an important part of my wedding.</span></div>

Today's the day! The fabulous famous Harlem chef <a href="http://www.melbasrestaurant.com/" target="_blank">Melba Wilson</a>'s cookbook comes out today! In addition to becoming a fantastic person, friend and sister to me over the last year, we have been collaborating on some exciting projects coming up. For those who love cookbooks, head to her book signing TODAY, April 12th, at the Barnes & Noble Tribeca, from 6-8 PM. Details are <a href="http://stores.barnesandnoble.com/store/2255" target="_blank">here</a>! The first 100 people to sign will get a $10 gift certificate to Melba's restaurant, designed by me! =0) Here's a Melba hug, paying homage to her world-famous Chicken & Waffles dish that beat Bobby Flay in his "Throwdown!' show!<br />
<br />
And here's a copy of the gift certificate I designed:<br />

<br />Big news! I'd been asked by the awesome guys at <a href="http://www.theteabook.com/" target="_blank">The TeaBook</a> to design their inaugural line of Collect Teable Teas. The theme is authors, so here is the very first limited edition tea design, ShakeSpearmint! If you are in the LA area and would like to be a part of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1682250478659279/" target="_blank">the largest Tea Party ever</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1682250478659279/" target="_blank">click here</a> for more details!<br />
<br />
ShakeSpearmint will be a part of the giveaways for the VIP tickets to the party, but in honor of the Ides of March I'm also offering it in the form of T-shirts, prints, and other fun collectibles... I mean, collecTeables, of course. :-P So I hereby announce the opening of the <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/hugotheday" target="_blank">Hug O' The Day Store</a>! It's filled with some of the most popular Hugs O' The Day, and...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
...I'm also offering up prints, products, and t-shirt designs of the new cover I did for Rabbi Elchanan Shoff's book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nuggets-Torah-Esther-Purim-Elchanan/dp/1530381665/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458074694&sr=8-1&keywords=purim+book+rabbi+shoff" target="_blank">Nuggets of Torah on Esther and Purim</a>. It was the #1 New Release for Judaism for a while on Amazon, and is still #1 New Release in Torah. The book is a limited edition so get it while it lasts! And feel free to browse the store to see if anything tickles your fancy. I have also put up some of my most popular Hugs O' The Day to purchase products, so let me know if you have any hug requests and I can make it happen!<br />
<br />
Please note: ALL profits from the Robin Williams' hug will be donated to Parkinson's Research. My grandfather also suffered from Parkinson's for 11 years, so it's a cause that has been near and dear to me as well.<br />
<br />
Let me know what you think! Would love your feedback!<br />
<br />
Hugs,<br />

Ok, I admit it. Over the years, I've become a big <a href="http://abc.go.com/shows/the-bachelor" target="_blank">Bachelor</a> fan. First it was begrudgingly as a skeptic, but I've since become a full fledged fan. It's escapism TV at its best, and I really enjoy seasons where the lead actually seems genuine. It's been a lot of fun to watch Bachelor Ben this year. The highlight for me personally is whenever I get to the very funny Michelle Collins pop up on the Bachelor Live episodes. She and I attended the <a href="https://www.schusterman.org/roicommunity" target="_blank">ROI 120 Summit</a> in Israel in 2009. She was hilarious, and it's been a pleasure watching someone from one of my social circles ride her talent up the chain of success, culminating in a hosting spot on <a href="http://abc.go.com/shows/the-view/" target="_blank">The View</a> (and of course even more importantly as a guest of Bachelor Nation). So go Michelle! This hug's for you. (And a side note to Ben Higgins, what in the world have you done? Good luck picking between the two girls you've told "I love you" to about a thousand times each! #TeamLauren)<br />

Anyone else crazy about <a href="http://www.cwtv.com/shows/crazy-ex-girlfriend/" target="_blank">Crazy Ex-Girlfriend</a>? I seriously can't get over how fun and awesome the show is. This whack-a-doo show is worth a watch if you haven't given it a shot yet (and if you do, watch past the first episode to see the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzY3EaJTuJk" target="_blank">best cartoon theme song introduction</a> since <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGFAlgsZkik" target="_blank">The Nanny</a>. Come for the hilarious songs, stay for the unpredictable, whimsical characters. Rachel Bloom/Rebecca Bunch, you are an inspiration this Jewish cartoonista!

"Alright, I'll give [this hug] a try." I was requested a Luke Skywalker hug by Ian Fults from British Columbia.<br />
<br />
I am aware that many of you will be seeing The Force Awakens tonight and tomorrow. I won't be able to go for a week or two... So I implore the following favors from you all. Spread if you feel the same way!<br />

Happy Star Wars IIV eve!<br />

I was lucky enough to be invited to go on the Reciprocity:
LA Artist Retreat last week. It was a wonderful experience, and a true
gift to spend time bonding with 20+ artists of various backgrounds and
art fields. I wanted to share the love by creating this "Artists Hug"!

If you were an '80s girl like myself, odds are you grew up watching Jem and the Holograms! And odds are, when you heard that a Jem remake movie was in the works, you went from the high of "YAY NOSTALGIA!" to a very fast low of "NOOOOOOOO!" upon viewing the trailers. The fact that it <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/williesha-morris/jem-and-the-holograms-fai_b_8385218.html" target="_blank">bombed so badly at the box office</a> is probably a surprise to...no one! So here's a revamped 2015 Jem hug for all those who can use it (especially all those involved in the making of that film).<br />
<br />
I'm also dedicating this hug to my dear friend Ari Gold, who was the singing voice of Ba Nee in the original cartoon series. Here's an Outrageous hug for you!

Today is the day! I drew this hug months ago in eager anticipation of the Supergirl TV show! As someone who loves both Superheroes and Rom-Coms, I couldn't be more excited for a show that combines my love for both. Who else is jazzed?

<br />Happy Back to the Future Day! Today's celebrations are 30 years in the making. Since the lack of hoverboards seem to be the major complaint, here's a Hoverboard hug for all those celebrating today. Now excuse me as I go back to my Back to the Future movie marathon watching...(while I work of course...). Feel free to celebrate in other ways - <a href="http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-future-is-here.../" target="_blank">here are some suggestions</a> of some really cool events happening in specific cities.

<br />Tomorrow, October 21st, is <a href="http://www.holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/October/pumpkincheesecakeday.htm" target="_blank">National Pumpkin Cheesecake Day</a>. I am posting about it today to raise awareness, because such an important day will surely be overshadowed by a one-in-a-lifetime pop culture phenomenon day that also takes place tomorrow. Unless you've been living under a rock for the last several years (aka entirely off of Facebook and other forms of social media), you know exactly what I'm talking about!Chari =0)http://www.blogger.com/profile/06437717042478641405noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677469071872428194.post-53150909782899146542015-10-19T12:00:00.000-07:002015-10-19T12:18:29.687-07:00Lightsaber Hug!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />A little bit of <a href="http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/herocomplex/la-et-hc-star-wars-trailer-poster-20151018-story.html" target="_blank">big news about the upcoming Star Wars movie happened yesterday</a>. No biggie. It's not like the internet freaked out or anything. Well, here's a lightsaber hug to help promote the film! Because obviously it's going to need all the publicity that it can get. ^_^Chari =0)http://www.blogger.com/profile/06437717042478641405noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677469071872428194.post-62963187656088062112015-10-16T00:00:00.000-07:002015-10-16T00:58:55.251-07:00Goosebumps Hug!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
