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... »
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... »
My Morning Routine…zzzzzzzzz
Husband tells me it is time to wake up…I sleep like the dead. I lie in bed until 6:20 a.m. when I know I need to get up or kids will be late for school. I get up and stagger to bathroom to brush my teeth. Teen and tween are already up getting dressed,... »
What Do I Love More Green Works or Coupons? How About Both!
The facts: I hate laundry and anything associated with washing, drying, folding, and ironing(!) clothes. I love my cluttered, messy, piles in every corner laundry room with a passion. I value “alone” time in my laundry room. I know “alone” time in the laundry room is inherently sad, but it beats listening to kids argue over whether... »
When Will Their Feet Stop Growing?
As a child, I remember wondering if my feet would ever stop growing. I wore a British Size 7…which was a European Size 39…which was a U.S. size 9. My friends all had smaller feet. Add in my wide feet and my propensity to get blisters from whatever new shoes I put on my feet... »
Black Friday and Me
I have a checkered past with Black Friday. I love it and hate it at the same time. The love is the deals. The hate is getting up early and braving the DC Metro traffic and the crowds! Did I mention how crowded the stores are? Crowded as in you have to wait in a line 50... »
Musings on Shoe Shopping for Kids
As a child in England, my memory of shoe shopping involves a shoe store with an ancient shoe x-ray machine. An x-ray machine? Yes, an x-ray machine about the size of a filing cabinet with a space at the bottom where the child would insert his or her foot. It was not in working... »

Spendervention: Giveaway
When TJ Maxx and Home Goods arrived in my small town, it was a big-time news event. TJ Maxx shares a building with Home Goods. Both have separate entrances and cash registers, but the return desk is for both stores. I like it as I can shop for a lamp while shopping for a pair... »
