Less scrolling. More living.
It’s pretty embarrassing, but honestly, sometimes it takes another mom company like Momtrends to PLAN an event to get me to actually allow a night out in the city anymore. With school five days a week, work busy as ever and a committed fitness routine, I am in a groove that really doesn’t allow for the fun and glamours social life that us moms are entitled to. Yes, even in… Keep Reading
Obviously in Pittsburgh we’ve been fans since the first pigskin was thrown. Even as babies, we are cloaked in the terrible towel upon birth to mark our right of passage into this legacy. But for years, even with tons of huge female fans, the clothing selection wasn’t quite as vast as our football stats knowledge. Back in the day, instead of oversized jerseys (or buying kids’ sizes – yes- even… Keep Reading
Boys will be boys. They love getting dirty, jumping off couches, laying around in their underwear and of course, eating – A LOT. So if they are going to be tossing back containers of ice cream, I’d prefer it to be something slightly better for them. As you know, we’re big fans of eliminating artificial ingredients and GMOs here, and they can sneak up on you in places you don’t… Keep Reading
Take Care Where It Counts One thing a woman needs is reliability from her deodorant. We are too busy and driven to have to worry about not having perspiration protection, or deodorant stains on our business suits (even if that is work-at-home sweatpants). Picking the perfect deodorant is an important part of the average woman’s beauty routine, and can’t be ignored. My major issue is worrying about my deodorant crumbling… Keep Reading
What does it really mean to be “fearless?” If referring to me, many claim I am the definition on it – allowing nothing to pose threats or scare me, in fact, I seem to thrive in the face of uncertainty, as if I almost welcome the challenge. But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that life is consistently about ups and downs, and facing your fears is what molds you… Keep Reading
Were you one of those people growing up that looked at your mom’s pot of coffee every morning and said, no way – I’ll never drink that sludge. I still remember her pulling out the tub of Maxwell House instant coffee and stirring and sipping on it throughout the day. (is that really coffee??). And the Mr. Coffee pot. Come on – you remember Mr. Coffee. It’s safe to say… Keep Reading
This post was sponsored by Jenny Craig as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central, and all opinions expressed are my own. If there’s one thing you need to know about me (if you don’t already), it’s that I like to eat! My whole life schedule is revolved around it. If it can’t be apart of the plans (because I ask in advance) then I’m not getting dressed. And… Keep Reading
Last weekend I tried something new for training (as I’m notorious to try crazy new athletic things like aerial yoga, tree climbing and bouldering…). Somehow, I’ve never participated in one of those mud runs -you know, where you literally jump in pools of mud – and when I was invited to the Poconos to try one (and we all know the Poconos is my happy place), I couldn’t resist seeing… Keep Reading
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Football season is just around the corner, and with my NFL Game Pass ready to go and two fantasy football teams drafted and set for a solid season – there is only one thing that still remains… watching that game on a big screen! Typical homegating spread and Steelers gear – can you spot the toddler? Being that we now live in… Keep Reading
Back-to-school season is finally here! Our favorite time of year when the kids have something to do all day and not complain about being bored and mom has time to get those summer pedicures she’s been waiting for. But that’s not the only reason to love BTS. These days, mom and kid products go hand-in-hand, and these handy new items are great for both home organization, moms on the go,… Keep Reading
This post was sponsored by Chime as part of an Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review. A few months ago I was celebrating a bachelorette party in Atlanta and offered to put the nightclub bill on my card and have it spit up at the end of the night. Apparently my bank didn’t like that and didn’t think it was really me at 1am popping… Keep Reading
One of my biggest guilty pleasures after coming home from a long day is not having to endure the tedious task of preparing and then cooking dinner. Frozen dinners and Seamless are my bad habit, especially after my train being delayed or when I didn’t have enough coffee that day. Lucky for our tiny NYC freezers (and wallets), some well-known companies like Healthy Choice have heard the cries of us trying… Keep Reading
