I do it every January. It arrives, it’s cold and we’re cooped up and I wish I had booked snowboarding trips for the winter. When you wait till last minute, usually all the good resorts are booked up (if you’re staying overnight). It’s not easy to remember to book a trip and wax that board of yours in the hot summer months, but ski/board season actually runs October through April… Keep Reading
So you’re tuning in on Sunday to watch some football? Let’s call it what it really is. The Big Game, as they refer to it, is to many of us losing team watchers a chance to drown our sorrows of our team while hurling judgmental comments at the screen for mistakes our teams, of course, wouldn’t make while indulging in heartbreak gluttony. So you’re gonna need some provisions to get… Keep Reading
This is a sponsored post by Babbleboxx on behalf of popchips. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting FootballFoodandMotherhood.com! January is a cold and bitter month to most, but those who grew up in the Northeast love it. We live for the cold mornings and icy commutes because we know that we get to come home to hot and satisfying eats and football games. January was meant for playoff season… Keep Reading
If you would have asked me even a few months ago that I would down this health journey, I would have laughed. I grew up on a farm and we hunted animals to eat. Dairy and meat were staples in our diet. But we as get older and wiser, the evidence is pretty clear that eating more fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes is where it’s at. They say this… Keep Reading
If you’re anything like me, you gave up a few things when you became a parent – late nights out on the town, heels and sleeping in on weekends. They all say – stay true to yourself! Find time for you! And as much as we all want to believe that and TRY – it’s just not that easy. It only takes five minutes to meditate a day they say,… Keep Reading
NYC is magical for the holidays. Among the crowded city streets, there are just so many twinkles and sparkles, holiday markets, and decorated storefronts and windows galore it’s easy to remember how fun holiday shopping can (and should!) be. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll always be a fan of two-day shipping, but for the holidays, there’s something that’s missing when you shop online – the actual shopping. There is something… Keep Reading
Question – Who else has a child who (clearly) loves gifts for the holidays but yet, isn’t like us and flipped through the magazine pages and circled basically – everything? I am the mom who needs a little help from the big man to get the list of coveted items, and I lean in as I hear him whisper his treasures to Santa himself. It’s December [xx] and we’ve already… Keep Reading
The holidays are always a great excuse for indulging a little more, and for us, it’s holiday cookies. Who doesn’t love a good sugar cookie? But sometimes, finding all the time to bake them can be difficult among holiday plays, shows and shopping (and Santa!). So there is no harm in skipping a step is there? Why bake when Little Bites has come out with Sugar Cookie muffins for the… Keep Reading
Still wondering what the F to get your child for the holidays this season? If you’ve read any of my prior holiday pieces, you’ll see that he’s not the easiest to find out (or is one to just give a full list of circled toys in a magazine). Besides using Santa to pull out the usual toy car, Lego, books items, there is always something that he gets that doesn’t… Keep Reading
This post is sponsored by Kohl’s. I was paid for this post and received the included toys as compensation. Holiday season is here folks. And like any typical parent out there, you’re already starting to sweat over toy shopping, or you’re in denial about it and will wait till the last minute and throw your stress levels into overdrive. Don’t be like Arnold. The best way to attack holiday shopping… Keep Reading
