Go! Go! Sports Girls Dolls — A Giveaway!
I recently attended the Toy Fair in NYC. I keep remembering bits and pieces about the Toy Fair. The day was overwhelming…in a good way. I knew the Toy Fair would be big, but never guessed just how big it would be. It was located on 3 floors of the Javits Center. I walked through... »
Uncle Ben’s To the Rescue #UncleBens
I’m not a gourmet cook. I’m not a made-from-scratch cook. I simply cook meals for my family each and every night. I don’t love to cook. I do love cooking shows, but I never follow through on any of the recipes because I don’t like to cook. In my early married days my husband was... »
Bra-lliant Idea
For years I wore bras that fit…I even had a proper sports bra. For years I wore maternity or nursing bras…let’s not get too specific about the actual span of years I wore these bras, shall we?! For a few years I wore bras so threadbare and saggy that the bras did not deserve... »
Was My Tween “Fooled” by Sugar Free Ring Pops or Not?
Years ago we had one of those dentist visits where my heart was in my throat. You know the ones. We learned that our 4-year-old had a cavity. I was shocked. She brushed her teeth twice a day under supervision. She took fluoride drops as we are not on city water. She had had... »
U Taste, We Donate Through Pringles Multigrain
As an English person at an American college, I was continually bombarded by unfamiliar food. Pop Tarts. Bagels. Meatloaf. Pringles. My first taste of Pringles was a little like biting in to a wafer. I was used to English crisps that are heavy and greasy. Pringles were anything but greasy. Pringles... »
Review and Giveaway…AKA as Hiding the Snacks from Kids!
I review products on this blog…all the time. I have packages coming in daily. Kids who are reluctant to drag up a trash can will haul in a box twice their size. All three clamor to open packages. I regularly distribute the review items and have the kids and my husband test/wear/listen to/eat the... »
Shoppers Food Warehouse Launches Nutrition IQ and a #Giveaway!
I grocery shop for my family with health in mind. I search the aisles for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack foods. I don’t read every food label, but I do care about the health value of the food I buy. I want to start focusing more on the healthiness of the... »
Defending Costco!
A fellow DC mom wrote that she was about to quit Costco. My response? Whaaaaatttt??? Heresy! We love Costco! I have been a member of a warehouse club since 1989…BEFORE we got married! Do you remember when Costco was Price Costco and before that Price Club? Yep…we were members then. Actually, we were members of... »
Peapod by Giant: A Review and Code for My Readers!
Two weeks ago I took a tour through the local Peapod by Giant warehouse with a group of local mom bloggers. I have long wanted to ditch the weekly grocery shop. Grocery shopping is time consuming. As I shop the aisles, I am unable to resist certain items…read: pre-packaged food items. I see the... »
What Is Appropriate for Little Girls?
As a mom, I have the final say on my my girls wear. Period. I let the tween and teen have some say on their clothes, but the bucks stops with me. My tween and teen can choose their own clothes each day for school and weekend wear. Both know that they have to abide... »
