This is an old favorite recipe of mine that underwent a “meal makeover” with the Meal Makeover Moms Janice and Liz, making it not only easy and tasty, but healthy, too! I won a meal makeover consultation a month or two ago, and I had a blast chatting with Janice and Liz on the phone…
Sneak Peek at Disney/Pixar’s BRAVE: “Fergus Shares a Legend”
I’m getting more and more excited about my upcoming trip to LA for the premiere of Disney/Pixar’s newest movie BRAVE. I love this new clip that was just released over the weekend: BRAVE arrives in theaters everywhere on June 22nd! Where will YOU be on June 22? I’ll be taking my kids to see Brave,…
Our Recipe for the Perfect Grilled Steak – Just “Cross Your Fingers!”
I asked my husband to share the story of how we learned how to grill the most delicious meats on the block. “It doesn’t take a master chef to grill a good steak.” ~CandyMan When Lolli and I got married, neither one of us was an amazing chef. I had worked in Richmond’s LeMaire…
Project 365 (Week 20)
This last week was more exciting than usual at home. My mother in law was here for the week (and to celebrate the birthday she shares with AJ). Nana and I had adventures almost every day, including the adventure of another hernia surgery for Candyman, a trip to the Smithsonian, and the development of caterpillars…
I’m Heading Back to CA for Disney/Pixar’s BRAVE and CARS LAND Opening #BraveCarsLandEvent
Yes, the title IS quite a mouthful. I simply couldn’t figure out how to pack so much awesomeness into one small line. I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve such an amazing year of travel. Oh! The places I’ve seen! We’re not even halfway through 2012, and already I’ve been to New York City…
An Avengers Birthday
AJ turned 7 years old today! I can’t believe my baby is 7! As is our tradition, he woke up early this morning and opened his presents before the majority of the family left for school. On the eve of his birthday, AJ watched Iron Man for the first time. It was perfect timing, because…
Being a Kid for a Day #YesMemory – Give Me Your Best Shot #PSF
It seems like ages ago that I got back from my trip to San Jose to visit YesVideo’s headquarters, but it really wasn’t that long ago. “Real life” tends to envelop me and make those glorious days of travel seem to be more distant than they really are. I left my memory card with all…
10 Travel Photography Tips
It shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone that photography and traveling are two of my favorite things. Since I’ve had a chance to play tourist in my own area, as well as take several trips already this year, I have had plenty of chances to remind myself of my un-written rules about travel photography….
Smithsonian National Zoological Park – #WW
A few weeks ago, when my brother and sister in law were in town, we spent a day at the National Zoo in nearby Washington DC. The day was perfect, the animals cooperated, and we had a blast. And there were 9 very tired Franklins at the end of the day. What are your favorite…
I’m a Skype Ambassador
A few years ago, I had no idea how to use Skype or why I would want to learn. My husband swore by it, but as a mother of then very young children, it simply sounded like something that would take more of my non-existent time. How wrong I was! CandyMan was finally able to…
