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…
Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie – Fun Facts About the Movie
Frankenweenie is totally Tim Burton and completely one-of-a-kind all in the same breath. I admit that it wasn’t on my must-see movie radar…until I saw an extended sneak peek of the movie and talked with the Producer Allison Abbate when I was in LA last month. Frankenweenie opens in spectacular Disney 3D on October 5…

Visiting Palmyra, New York #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
Our family vacation to Upstate New York! This past week marked the 75th anniversary of the Hill Cumorah Pageant, and we were there!

My Journey to BlogHer
Months ago, with BlogHer well in the distance, and no money in my account to purchase an early bird ticket, I took a gamble. I applied to be a volunteer and figured that I’d go only if I was chosen as a volunteer and got the free ticket. As luck would have it, I was…
Vacation Wordless Wednesday #WW
Have you ever been on vacation (heck, I think the whole summer applies here) and gotten an email and thought, “Why is that person talking about Wednesday? It’s not Wednesday yet.” And then you realize that it is, in fact, Wednesday and you feel completely out of sorts? Yep, that’s me today. We took a…
Grocery Shopping Tips – Big Family “How Do You Do It?” Series
About a week ago, I took 3 of my kids out on a shopping trip. Since my kids have been in school full time for the last 2 years, and because I have a couple of amazing built-in babysitters when they’re NOT in school, I had completely forgotten how difficult it is to shop with…
You Won’t Believe What We Missed… #HowIdoAC
A few days before the 4th of July, I posted about the new 3D sound and light show on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City that was set to debut on July 4th. The concept and the “preview” photos looked incredible. Pairing that with Independence Day fireworks? Holy cow. What I didn’t know when I posted…
2012 Kia Soul – A Mom’s Review
For those of you who don’t read Better in Bulk regularly, I feel like I always need to start all car reviews with a disclosure: I am not a car person. I don’t understand most specs, and I am not concerned with features unless they make my life easier. When I look at a car,…
“The Magic Warble” by Victoria Simcox – Summer Reading for Kids 9-13
With temperatures in the 90s and 100s for weeks now, my kids have spent way too much time indoors this summer. Their tendency, of course, is to sit in front of the TV or play games on the computer, but I would much rather encourage the kids to dig in to a good book. Author…
