Last weekend, while I was at Blogalicious, I shared lunch with two wonderfully delightful women from Living Social. As a mom working from home, I love when I can find deals for my family….especially when I don’t have to leave my home to get them. Yesterday, Living Social released some survey results on Halloween trends…

Autumn Sunsets…Ahh! PSF – GMYBS
I haven’t been enjoying this beautiful time of year as much I should lately. Typically stuck behind my computer all day, I am missing some of the most beautiful scenery the Washington DC area has to offer. Luckily, last weekend I was able to take a leisurely walk at sunset around my hotel on the…
Homemade Chicken Nuggets and Buffalo Fries
The other day, I was talking online about one of my favorite uses of Keebler Club Crackers. Yes, my kids love to snack on them, but they love the chicken nuggets I make with them even more. The best part about this recipe? The ingredients are simple and they are fast and easy to make…
A #Blogalicious Date With Shrek – Wordless Wednesday
When my kids saw this picture of me with Shrek at Blogalicious, they asked, “Was that the REAL Shrek from the movie?!” No, kids. Sadly no. But it was still pretty fun.

Ready for Halloween? We Aren’t.
We’ve got our pumpkins (and one turned into a Jack-o-Lantern), we’ve made our Halloween decorations for the house, we’ve cooked our yummy pumpkin treats to eat, and we’ve bought candy galore for the trick-or-treaters. But we are not ready for Halloween at all. Why? No costumes. I am have been a complete slacker in the…
Blogalicious Weekend Highlights in Pictures
I am home from Blogalicious Weekend and am trying to settle back in to normal life after an amazing conference. This is not the last you will hear about my incredible conference weekend, but I wanted to share a few pictures and highlights from my time there: Blogalicious brought out the silly in me: BTW…
Crazy for Pumpkin Carving – PSF GMYBS Linky
It’s that time of year again!! I found pumpkins at Aldi’s for $2.49 (two-forty-nine?!) and so I bought three. Reese has been begging me daily to carve one of them. Apparently she REALLY wanted to carve a pumpkin, because she chose to stay home carving while I took the other kids out for ice cream….
Blogalicious – What I Can’t Wait to Do This Weekend!
Despite the fact that I haven’t even folded the laundry, not to mention done any of the packing for my big Blogalicious Weekend in 2 days, I am over-the-top excited. Early on Friday morning, I’m heading out to my 3rd social media and blogging conference of the year. Here are a few things I can’t…
Like Mother, Like Daughter – Wordless Wednesday #Linky
The other night, at dinner, Reese was trying to remember some lyrics. So she did what any 8 year old would do. She ran in the other room, grabbed the netbook, and googled her question. All while eating her dinner, of course. For more inspiring photos, check: 5 Minutes for Mom, High Impact Mom, The…
What Has Inspired You to Grow as a Person?
I was young when I got married. Young when I had my first baby. I don’t have any regrets about starting my family young. In fact, I would recommend it to others. But I will be the first to admit that I did have to put my own needs on the back burner for a…
