Y’all. We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this important announcement. (An announcement that does, in fact, contain affiliate links — awkward disclosure up front per the FTC.) I just happened to pop over to Gap.com to order a few pairs of jeans for my daughter, who has somehow managed to bang a hole… Continue Reading →

Last Tuesday night I attended the Kate Young for Target launch party representing the Target Inner Circle. It was seriously the most fun I’ve had all year. I was able to ask Kate a few questions, and I’d love to share photos of some of the celebs sporting dresses from the Kate Young Collection and see who… Continue Reading →

I told you a few weeks ago that I’ve been trying out the new Windows Phone 8. I love how you can make it completely unique with its Live Tiles and Apps and completely customizable Start Screen. It’s pretty cool. You can even change the color scheme. Mine is teal, see? PRETTY!? My husband has a Windows… Continue Reading →

The holidays are coming, and we all want to show appreciation to the various service people in our lives. Teachers, mailmen, hairdressers, babysitters . . . even the garbage collectors are accustomed to receiving a tip these days, judging by the Chrismas cards they left on our trashcans last week.

For some reason, I’m getting into the holiday spirit early this year. In recent years, the holiday spirit has taken its sweet time in taking over and I often don’t really feel like it’s Christmastime until the very day it arrives. But for some reason, I’m feeling Christmassy already and it’s only November 7th!! I’m… Continue Reading →

Last weekend I drove into Philly for the Mom Mixer Holiday Showcase, hosted by my good friends Whitney and Colleen at the Hyatt at the Bellevue in center city Philadelphia. We exited the elevator on the 19th floor and entered the swank XIX Restaurant where dozens of bloggers were kicking off the holiday season with many fabulous brands. The space is absolutely… Continue Reading →

Daily life is stressful and it can be hard to break free from our busy routines to reconnect with nature, but there are many proven benefits for children who spend time in nature. Research shows that children who play outside have lower stress levels and more active imaginations, become fitter and leaner and are more… Continue Reading →

My kids don’t eat gluten free, but I do and I can only imagine how challenging it would be to be a child in school these days with these dietary restrictions. This is why products like Udi’s rock. Kids can have sandwiches, pizza, brownies, cookies and bagels that look like everyone else’s but that are… Continue Reading →
