I love to cook. I love to EAT more, but I do love to cook, and I dare say I’m rather good at it most of the time. I have a few challenges with cooking, though, that tend to minimize the enjoyment that I get from the task. As a mom of 5 kids,…
Two-Headed Monster Takes Over Yogurt Shop – Give Me Your Best Shot #PSF
I drove my mom to the airport today. Seven days with my mom is definitely not enough time, but I enjoyed every second of it. I’ll be spending the next few days trying to catch up on the tasks I’ve been avoiding while Mom and I have been off shopping and eating lunch out and…
The Only Thing Powerful Enough To Keep Me Away…
I spend quite a bit of time on my computer each day. Between writing and social media “maintenance” and photo editing, it’s not much of an exaggeration to say that I spend most of my time here at my desk. Luckily, I love this. Not much can keep me away for long. Heck, I even…

The Best Restaurant at Disney World – 50’s Prime Time Cafe
I love food. Finding good food is often a huge part of my travel plans and the places we eat can certainly make or break a day’s on vacation. Although my day at Disney World without kids last month was wonderful on its own, the dinner I shared with Caryn from Rockin Mama, Liz from…

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…

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…
