Because when you have six-year-old boys in your house, you start to learn about all the weird toys on the market and how kids just LOVE stuff like this. In the year of 2018, it’s the more weird and bizarre it is, the cooler it is – so enter on the market something as redic as Zits. For the pre-puberty child who doesn’t really have to worry about these yet… Keep Reading
Do Your Fellow New Yorker’s a Favor
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
Netflix Just Got Even Better For Kids
We gave up cable two years ago. Between my hectic traveling schedule and Maximo caring less about many of the channels, we just didn’t see a reason to pay the huge bill each month. Lucky for us, Netflix has also come a long ways in the last few years – adding in more selections of shows, movies, original programming and now, focusing on kids. Today, Meet the Kazoops! If you’re… Keep Reading
Why You Should (and Can!) Earn Hard Cash By Spending It
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
Surviving Summer Cravings and Bad Food Decisions
This post was sponsored by Meta Appetite Control as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. Summer is hard. Hard to balance health, self and parenting. Kids are off school so that means your daily workout routine is off, you’re traveling more, and let’s be honest – most of that traveling revolves around the kids and “kid food.” Meta Appetite Control has been a life saver for me these last couple… Keep Reading
Don’t Be Tanorexic #ChooseSkinHealth
Tanorexic – is that even a word? That’s what we used to refer to it in college throughout our sorority house. We were all addicted to it – literally going every. single. day. We would see each other more as we passed by swapping in and out of the tanning booths than we did walking to class. We had to be tan. Really tan. (Can you really get addicted to… Keep Reading
Love it or Leave it – The Ultimate Spring Clean 16
It’s time to rise and shine (those lamps). Now that we’ve throughly adjusted the bags under our eyes to daylight savings time, spring has brought on a new monster. When they say in like a lion out like a lamb, they really mean those dust bunnies with claws under your bed that you’ve been afraid to face. One piece of profound knowledge I’ve learned in my 34 enlightening years on… Keep Reading
Wellness with Nature Made
This post was sponsored by Nature Made® as a part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I’ve realized that being an “East Coaster” (and especially a New Yorker) can really take a toll on your health. It’s a given – we work ourselves to the bone, are impatient, have zero tolerance, and are exposed to tons of germs and smog, fumes, ick all day everyday. I’ve come to find… Keep Reading
Winter Football + Carb Loading is Tastefully Simple!
It’s official, the Steelers are out of the running and the winter cold is blowing outside. New York City is frigid. That means it’s time to crawl up in the fetal position and cry and drown yourself in carbs. Because it’s January. You’re all about resolutions? I’m all about hibernating for the next 60 days. Ok, so yes, I am still training for the Pittsburgh Marathon in April, but that… Keep Reading

All opinions are mine alone. #VivaLaMorena #CollectiveBias It might be cold out, but the road to the big game is heating up. This Saturday, the pigskin will be tossing high in the Rocky Mountains and hopefully ends with a black and gold victory.
