Please join me Tuesday evening on Twitter as we party with the ladies of MomSelect! There’s nothing like enjoying a satisfying and delicious meal at the end of a long day. But with our busy schedules and hectic lifestyles, being creative in the kitchen can be a challenge. Let’s meet this challenge head-on by sharing…

(photo credit: Raphael Goetter)Warning: this post is going to be about boobs, ta-tas, hooters, knockers, the life-nourishing, majestic appendages we call breasts. There will be no parenting strategies here today, but if you are a parent, chances are that this post will apply to you or someone in your life. If you are my dad,…

Last Friday was my four year old’s last day of pre-school. I planned ahead for this summer after the chaos that was last year, and so at the end of the month a mommy’s helper will be joining us twelve hours a week so that I have time to work. Unfortunately, that leaves three weeks…

Those of you who have been travelling to Walt Disney World for a few years have witnessed the transformation of the Disney Dining reservations system…multiple times. Just when we figured out how to get the best character dining reservations by calling exactly 180 days before our trip at exactly 6:59 a.m. ET and booking for…

Me, hugging my four year old son: “Oh, honey, I love you to pieces.” My son back to me: “Mom, I love you to cheese pizzas, too.”

Thank you to The Breakers for a wonderful three days! While my trip was not paid for by The Breakers, the experience and service were outstanding, and I wanted to share these beautiful images. My trip was for a Lifetime Moms work retreat, and as such my expenses were covered by Lifetime.

Last Saturday I spent the evening with a couple dozen Maryland area bloggers at a MomzShare event, a quarterly blogger gathering organized by Jennifer Gerlock and Lara Dipaola. I wasn’t sure what the topic of the evening would be, but knew that there would be food, fun, and friends, both old and new. The intrinsic…

Next week there will not be a Friday Night Sitewarming because of the Memorial Day holiday weekend. Instead, please save the date for Thursday the 27th at 9:00 p.m. ET! Tweet you there!

I’ve always thought that it would be nice if Christmas really was in July, or heck, even June. It was always so difficult to go back to school after only a few days with a house energized by new toys and books. Wouldn’t it be more fun to receive new toys, games, craft supplies and…

Please join me this Thursday as I party with the ladies of Mom Select to talk about My Job Chart! We don’t know about you, but when we think of doing household chores, we don’t normally think of a party. But when it comes to finding a great way to motivate our kids to help…

A frequent topic of conversation in my home is when the Fantasyland expansion at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom will be complete. Usually the kids ask a question along the lines of, “Are they building Sleeping Beauty’s house yet?” or “Did they move Dumbo,” but in my mind I’m concerned about the entire process: the…

Last week I disappeared for a bit while the Bubonic Plague – or maybe a stomach virus – moved slowly from one member of my family to the other. Like the good and loving mother that I am, I sat by my daughter’s side while she got sick over and over again all night Sunday….

It doesn’t take much to convince me that it’s time to visit Walt Disney World. Last February during the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration, I attended a press event about upcoming Disney events and changes to the parks and cruise line. One moment in the presentation that made me want to book my next vacation…

This week I will be hosting four Twitter parties: – Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET – Thursday at 1:00 p.m. ET – Thursday at 8:00 p.m. ET – Friday at 9:00 p.m. ET More to come!

One statement that I frequently hear from those asking me for Disney vacation planning tips is, “I know I really need to wait until the kids are older for them to enjoy it.” This couldn’t be further from the truth! No matter what age the child, there is something at Disney for everyone. Here are…

Although today is both Mother’s Day and my son’s birthday, I asked for a very strange gift…two hours alone with my inbox. When I ended my week I had 918 unread e-mails, and the last thing I wanted was to begin aother week with the shadow of Outlook looming heavily over me. This happens from…
