PopSugar — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 15:00:45 -0800

Casey Affleck and his son Indiana got dressed up in ties on Saturday while running errands including a stop at Rite Aid with Summer Phoenix and baby Atticus. Casey is known for taking long breaks between projects, but he's just signed on for a new film called The Killer Inside Me alongside Jessica Alba. He's proved his acting skills with his latest roles, and we'll look forward to seeing if Casey can churn out another Oscar-worthy performance.

Some Lovely Ladies Support Summer's Odd Rubies

PopSugar — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 12:30:16 -0700

Summer Phoenix opened up her second Some Odd Rubies store in LA yesterday, with a little help from her beautiful girlfriends. Sister-in-law Jennifer Garner came out to show the love and provide a few hugs, as did a smiley Liv Tyler. Elizabeth Banks took a time out from being an underrated actress to check out the vintage wares. All of the ladies looked fresh-faced and fabulous last night, but there's no harm in shopping for new goodies while supporting a friend.

The Other Affleck Clan Plays in LA Too

Molly — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 09:09:06 -0700

Casey Affleck and his wife Summer Phoenix brought their two sons out for a family lunch in LA Thursday. Summer carried the baby, Atticus, while Indiana stuck by Casey's side looking every bit the mini me. The whole crew is quite the precious foursome, and while Indiana has his cousin Violet old enough to play with, baby Atticus will soon get another Affleck cousin who will grow up right behind him. Casey's been taking a break from the big screen after his big year including Gone Baby Gone and his Oscar nod for The Assassination of Jesse James, so hopefully we'll get to see the Affleck brothers and their families enjoying the endless LA Summer.

The Softer Side of Casey Affleck

PopSugar — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 09:00:38 -0700

Lately we've been seeing less of the wisecracking younger Affleck and more of Casey the family man, and there are certainly no complaints here. Yesterday he packed up his two little boys and headed to LAX with his wife, Summer Phoenix. How adorable is he making faces and playing with his newborn son? We just wish we had a baby name to go with all of this cuteness.

Maybe the boys were on their way to a game of pickup ball in the LA sun?

Brad Pitt's Moneyball Movie Runs Into Trouble

PopSugar — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 08:18:05 -0700

Brad Pitt went for another ride around LA on his motorcycle on Friday. Production on Brad's latest project, Moneyball, was scheduled to start today in Phoenix but has been stalled because Columbia Pictures didn't like the latest copy of the script. The movie still has the clout of Brad as well as director Steven Soderbergh, both of whose agents met this weekend to discuss the future of the film. Moneyball, which is based on the bestselling book of the same name, still could be picked up by another studio, but if not Brad might be looking at some extra free time this Summer.

More Grocery Chains Say Bienvenidos to the Hispanic Market

partysugar — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 05:50:24 -0700

With the popularity of cooking Mexican cuisine at home on the rise, and the fast-growing Hispanic-American population, it's no surprise that retailers, specifically grocers, are paying more attention to the Hispanic markets. More and more stores are bringing the Hispanic foods out of the ethnic aisle and into the mainstream sections of the stores.

Supermarket chains, like Publix, now offer Mexican spices among the parsley and thyme, and queso fresco and chorizo can be found next to the Parmigiano-Regianno and Roquefort in the refrigerator cases. National chain Walmart is also aiming to appeal to Hispanic shoppers with two test Supermercados debuting in Houston and Phoenix. Likewise, Sam's Club is opening a Hispanic-oriented store called Mas this Summer in Houston.

Although the recession might not be a good time to develop new cultural marketing strategies, according to a report by the Food Marketing Institute, Hispanic consumers shop for groceries more often than the average American. They also cook from scratch more and purchase more fresh ingredients. Since I'm a huge fan of embracing all types of cuisine, I'm happy to hear that Mexican food items will be easier to find. How do you feel about the news?
