Style vs. Practicality

living room remodel

I would love to have a nicely appointed home, and I have definite opinions about what I like and don’t like, but when it comes to my own house, decorating doesn’t come naturally to me. It takes me a lot of time and effort to achieve the look that I want — and I don’t [...]

The Wild Africa Trek at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

At the Disney Social Media Mom’s Celebration last month, each attendee was allowed to choose one activity on Saturday morning. Among the choices was the Wild Africa Trek — a private guided tour where guests get up close and personal with Animal Kingdom’s wild animals. Before I had a chance to look at the other [...]

What’s On The Menu: Cinco de Mayo

I’m not Mexican, and I’m not even entirely sure what Cinco de Mayo is celebrating, but any excuse to enjoy Mexican food is a holiday in my book! If I were entertaining this weekend, which I’m NOT, but if I were, this is what I would make. Just thought I’d share, in case anyone is [...]

Fashion Friday :: SWIMSUITS!

modest-swimwear

Oh yeah, I’m going there. I’m curious. What types of bathing suits do you wear? I got into an interesting discussion with some girls at the gym about skirted bathing suits. They basically mocked me for wearing what they scoffingly called, “but skirts” (intentional misspelling, gotta fool the Google!) and said that they just call [...]

Wine Review: Parker Station Pinot Noir & Fess Parker Riesling

wine1

This month from the California Wine Club, I received a Pinot Noir and a Riesling. Both are from the Fess Parker Winery & Vineyard. I have to admit, this was not my favorite shipment. Not that it stopped me from drinking it, mind you, but neither is one I would order again. That doesn’t mean [...]

Mom Style | What I Wore This Week 05.02.12

casual mom style

Holy macaroni, it is May. HOW did that happen?? I spent half of the past week in Disney World, thus the crappy iPhone hotel room photos. I wore this outfit one day last week before I left. The weather was pretty mild — not hot, but not cold either. I wore my favorite cuffed jean [...]

Getting Into an Exercise Routine

TRX

Last week I confessed that I’m not athletic and that I never particularly liked to exercise. But as I’ve grown older, I’ve seen the value of staying in shape, and I’m finally at a place where I can honestly say that I do have a regular exercise routine (and I might sorta kinda like it.) If [...]
