With all the walking, commuting around the city and constant moving (bend and snap, anyone?), I need clothes that can… Keep Reading
This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com on behalf of Single Edition Media. This summer flew faster than Usain Blot in the Olympics. I don’t know about you, but back to school snuck right up on us and in two weeks, Max will start kindergarten. That means new school, new friends, new uniforms AND new grown up school supplies. #NotReadyToGrowUp. So we’re slowly transitioning into this new world of school-age life… Keep Reading
Back-to-school. The time of year that moms start scrambling back to reality and trying to figure out just what they need – where IS that list from the school anyways?! Even though Max will just be starting kindergarten, I’ve learned over the last couple of years in “preschool” what necessities are, or as mom’s call in – survival. Don’t go crazy and Amazon Prime so much you spend more than… Keep Reading
They say to survive you need three things: food water and shelter. And when it comes to travel, we’ve mastered the art of efficiency and basically following the same guidelines that I do with writing – KISS. Keep It Simple, Stupid. Don’t take everything including the kitchen sink, just know what essentials are necessary. Here are my eight must-have components to going camping/hiking/into the great outdoors. Plus, they’re just good… Keep Reading
Starting a new sport always sounds fun until you realize all the equipment that goes with it. Biking requires fixing flat tires and helmets, hiking needs the right boots, water packs and bug spray and even running means you need to get fitted for the right shoe. Wait, what? Yes, it’s not as easy as you think to just head out and “rough” it, and since so many of you… Keep Reading
I have always been a data nerd – ask my previous Comcast coworkers. Numbers and charts and finding new compelling evidence really intrigue me, it’s always the drive behind being a writer anyways – to find out the stories that are not being told (remember when I was supposed to go to Africa and be the next Martha Gelhorn?). So I am not sure how I missed Consumer Reports all these… Keep Reading

It’s December 1st and I can officially write about holiday shopping and Christmas trees without feeling like it’s treading on my turkey. Call me old fashioned, but I like my holidays one at a time. If you’ve known me for a long time, you know that I actually never liked to celebrate holidays. As an only child who isn’t close to her family I just had to need to. In… Keep Reading
This post was sponsored by Asurion as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. We’ve all been there. You get that dreaded pop-up that says you’re out of room on your phone. Every. Single. Time you go to catch the cutest photo of your kids doing something that no other kid can ever do, right? Short of saying F it and running to the Apple store to get a… Keep Reading
