BlogHer is the world’s largest conference for women in social media, and the perfect place for bloggers and companies to network. I’m so excited to have the chance to attend, this year! The conference is being held the first week in August, in New York, and I would love to share your family-friendly brand there, [...]
Our family recently had an opportunity to try the new Game of Life zAPPed. What an unexpected burst of family fun! My son, daughter and I played a game after school, one afternoon this week. We had so much fun that they had to play again, that evening, with our older daughter and then again, [...]
I have been fortunate to share some really excellent toys with my children and grandchildren, as part of my work as a blogger. I love when those opportunities are from companies I have known and loved since my own childhood. Crayola is an icon in creative and imaginative play. Most impressive is their ability to [...]
I recently had an exciting opportunity to try out the iMemories service available at local The UPS Stores. I hadn’t even realized the service was available, so it was a great surprise to hear that our family’s old VHS and VHS-C’s could be digitized and transferred to DVD, preserving all those treasured memories, there.

(I’m harboring ungracious thoughts about you, right now. ) Or do you have envelopes and boxes of snapshots [...]
Hold on to your hats! You won’t believe what I’m about to share! You were bound to find out, sooner or later. It’s true…I’m a cooking show junkie. Food Network is my very “bestest most favorite” channel (Did you see Ree [the Pioneer Woman], in her debut, this weekend?). When it comes to [...]
It looks like I’m up really late at night, again, and have crazy tired typing fingers, doesn’t it? What in the world is a pinterest? — lol – I had to add it to my computer’s dictionary because I take it way to personally when it pops those red squiggly lines that say you’ve misspelled [...]
When it comes to school supplies, in 2011, Back-to-School means a lot more than just paper, crayons and pencils. Technology is a HUGE part of our childrens’ lives AND educations. Whether they attend public or private school or are homeschooled, our kids work with computers, the Internet and related technology on a daily basis. [...]
