I love May. I get the full month to ME. Mother’s Day, Memorial Day weekend, my birthday… it’s just one long month of celebrations, gifts and fun. But let’s talk about Mother’s Day. Frankly, I just want to relax this year. I don’t want an overpriced salad where I have to wait in line and then be rushed out. I don’t want overpriced flowers that will die in two days. … Keep Reading
Ok ladies, I know you’ve all seen it. If you haven’t – shocker – the beautiful Julia Roberts plays a hooker who has a billionaire fall in love with her. You know, typical everyday life. A classic fairytale love story, but I mean, who doesn’t need another Cinderella story for faith on love and true romance? Especially in 2019. Enter Pretty Woman: The Musical. The love story of 2019 –… Keep Reading
This is a sponsored post on behalf of a partnership with Abrams Books. All opinions expressed are my own. Thanks for supporting FootballFoodandMotherhood.com. It’s sort of strange when your kids start to read. They start reciting your text messages out-loud and reading the STD ads on the subway to everyone during rush hour. But it’s also fun to finally embrace when your child graduates from level one reading into real… Keep Reading
The lights, the glimmer, the glam of Broadway. That’s why we live here in NYC, right? All these overly dramatic amazing musicals all trying to outdo themselves and we all scramble to try and get tickets while the main actors are still there (and it’s still a year down the road). Just want to see something different? How about a show that goes entirely wrong – and that’s what you… Keep Reading
This post is sponsored by Kohl’s. I was paid for this post and received the included jewelry as compensation. Max and I were in the middle of a solid tickle war the other day when he accidentally grabbed and snapped the chain on my everyday necklace. He was completely devastated as a six-year-old would be, even though I reassured him we could have it fixed. He adamantly exclaimed he wanted… Keep Reading
Maybe it’s because we lived in a rural area before Walmart existed, but if there is one smell (beyond the farm) that I remember it’s Baby Magic. We used to live on this stuff, well and Bag Balm tbh, and I honestly haven’t smelled that scent for years until last week, and you guys – it’s like… a big bowl of comfort food for your soul and skin. Maybe it’s… Keep Reading
Don’t’ be SAD. It’s a real thing – and I 100% get it every year. Which is sort of ironic, but I really love winter, or well, snow. I love snow. But we don’t seem to get a lot of that around NYC – just freezing cold temps and winds when you have to walk around outside. That’s definitely sad, especially when the trains aren’t working. So how does one… Keep Reading
Another fantastic vegan find. If you’re tired of reading about vegan food – turn away now. But you’ll be missing out – this is the year to be vegan. There are so many delicious options I’m discovering that are meat- and dairy-free that you don’t even notice you’re giving up anything. Case in point my most recent find: Alpha Burritos and Pot Pies. These were a fun find because I… 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
