Pretty Cool Dog Days of Summer
This past year I’ve had the chance to take some pretty incredible trips. I’ve traveled from coast to coast, seen movies before they’ve come out in theaters, met famous people, and stayed in fancy hotels. Glamorous, sometimes, exciting, always. But never with my family. A much as I love traveling on my own, I do…
If You Were An Olympic Athlete….
Tonight the Opening Ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympic Games will begin. The Olympic Games kick off TODAY, July 27, and run through August 12. What’s YOUR Olympic Sport? Unlike many young children, I never had hopes of being an athlete in the Olympic games. My chosen sport – ballet – never made it into…
A Teaser – #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
Here’s a sneak peek at a project that I’ve been working on recently. Let’s just say, I haven’t just been busy baking and eating goodies, but creating recipes! It has been so much fun. I was reminded again that I am NOT a food photographer. it is such a different animal, and for some reason…
5 Quick and Easy Steps to a Beautiful Guest-Ready Guest Bathroom

Flashback to My Childhood – Wordless Wednesday #Linky
While we were in upstate New York last week, we found a cozy little park where we stopped, ate lunch, and played on the old-time playground equipment. While the slide and see saws and merry-go-round wouldn’t stand a chance in Montgomery County, Maryland, where I am right now, they sure brought me back to my…
Kia Rio Small-Size Sedan – A Mom’s Review
Like I’ve mentioned in my previous car reviews: I am not a automotive expert. I’m more concerned with comfort, functionality, and ease of use than I am with technical specs. That being said, I didn’t expect to love the 2012 Kia Rio SX before I drove it around town for a week. I’m a mom…
How To Plan the Best, Affordable Family Vacation
Last Tuesday, my family of seven pulled up to the Days Inn in Geneva, New York. The temperature outside was a blazing 100+ and we were tired from 8 hours of driving in a car packed full with people. I was sitting in the back seat, in between my two youngest, to maintain the peace…
