Sweet Kids’ Clothing from @Kudzoom
From time to time I post about deals. After Blogher, I became a tad obsessed with deal sites. Previously, I didn’t think deal sites were for me. I’m not a huge shopper. I was surprised to find how many of…
Day One Musings from Me Trip to Southern California: #BlogHer11 and @SeaWorld
As a mom in blogging, I review toys, games, DVDs, hotels, food, amusement parks, and if-you-name-it-I-have-probably reviewed it. I get packages delivered 2 to 3 times a week. You can bet that the kids stampede to any package delivered to…

Connecting with FiOS Flex View for #familytime [Review]
To say that my family is switched on to media would be an understatement. Five years ago we had a home computer, a satellite dish because we have poor local TV, and a regular old cell phone. That was it.…
Sharing Is Caring at @MomSpark’s #BlogHer Forum
If you follow me on Twitter, you’ll know I tweet. A lot. It’s what I do. I have made a science — at least in my own mind — of keeping my tweets pithy, on point, concise, and informative. All…
