Because everyone should see NYC at Christmastime.

NYC

Guess where I was last night? Give up? I spent the evening at a swanky event at the Lola in New York City. SO. FUN. Hosted by Barbara Jones and Catherine Connors for Sole Society, a group of mom bloggers gathered for a fashionable evening of shoes, champagne, and chocolate. I mean, hello. Shoes, champagne and chocolate? [...]

Type B Goes To Type A

I’m not sure I’m the classic Type A personality, but fortunately they let me come anyway. They even asked me to speak, go figure. I’ve always heard great things about the Type A Mom Conference (now Type A Parent — wouldn’t want to leave the dads out of the fun!) but this is the first [...]

That’s pretty much how I would sum up the Blissdom Conference. This was my third year attending, and over the years I’ve watched the conference evolve, as well as the blogosphere. These days there are a lot more sponsors, a lot more new faces, and a lot more opportunities. Even though I sometimes miss the simplicity [...]

Hello from Blissdom!

I just got done speaking at my session on hyperlocal blogging, so now I can sit back and relax and enjoy the rest of the conference! I wasn’t as nervous as I thought I’d be, and my co-presenters were so well-versed in the topic that I didn’t have much to add. Oooh, and look, I [...]

I mean, where else do you get to shop with a glass of wine in hand? Photo credit: Mommies with Style Last week, 2700 CAbi consultants congregated at the Opryland Hotel for several days of shopping, relaxation, training and the anxiously awaited reveal of the new Spring 2011 Collection. I was invited along with four [...]
