An accident with an Edy’s Strawberry Fruit Bar

An Edy’s Strawberry Fruit Bar bit my tongue. Not kidding. I know. I know. It’s usually the other way around. But sometimes love hurts. And this is one such time. I remember the first time we met… Edy’s Fruit Bars and me. It was summer. It was hot. It was magic when I saw something [...]

There’s one thing that REALLY matters to me when it comes to food – TASTE! I love Healthy Choice’s – Complete Meals – Classic Meatloaf.

FASHION TIP of the week.

Just because an item is on sale, doesn’t mean it has to be purchased. Even if it’s down to 99 cents. Make sure the clothes/accessories you buy – fit, look good and you know you’ll get use out of them. Simple advice… but it’s good advice to follow.

“Where ah you, Grandma?”

This morning, Audrey came to my home bright and early to get lots of work done… like 7:00 am early. Matt was doing breakfast and pre-school transportation for William and Alex, and Benjamin and Henry (still in jammies!) came to Grandma and Pop-up’s with Audrey. The Audrey/Jane/Sharon to-do list work began in earnest while Benjamin [...]

Healthy eating with picky eaters

Growing up, my mother was very focused on instilling healthy eating habits in us. I remember as a child we never had soda (or pop, depending upon where you live), sugary cereals (oh, I wanted them so badly!), or a pantry filled with chips and cookies. When we did, it was a complete special treat. [...]

Mabelline's NEW Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara

The Elevenmoms got to try out Mabelline’s NEW Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara. I love me some fashion and beauty products to try out — so I JUMPED at the chance. I’m not really a mascara wearing woman… I love what mascara does to my eyes, but it’s difficult for me to find that “perfect” mascara. [...]

A Mother’s Day Lesson

My mom just turned 84. Beginning when I was a very little girl, I remember my mom’s birthday and Mother’s Day being very close together. I remember picking out birthday gifts… and already thinking ahead to that first Sunday in May, often going with a gift theme. Like a summer ensemble or travel items or [...]

Quiet time with Healthy Choice

With 4 boys (4 and under) I’m constantly on-the-go. Quiet time for myself is considered a luxury… only because of our family’s crazy-busy schedules and days. Yesterday (Mother’s Day) I was able to enjoy some quiet time during lunch. Benjamin and Henry were napping. William and Alexander were enjoying Indiana Jones (again). I popped a [...]

Isaac Mizrahi's 3 things…

I love Isaac Mizrahi. I have always been a HUGE fan! I was so excited to open this month’s (MAY 2009) Redbook Magazine and see story on him, concerning summer fashion! As the new creative designer at Liz Claiborne, Isaac is bringing gorgeous colors to summer fashion. I love this question and Isaac’s answer – [...]

An ode to my Mom

I always knew that I had a special relationship with my mom. But it took me awhile longer to realize that not every daughter had a mother like mine. I guess, when I was younger, I thought that all mothers were just like mine. I thought that all mothers woke their daughters each morning with [...]
