Celebrity Shopping Buddies

August 16, 2012

It’s time for more face time with Fadra. I have to be honest. I actually like doing videos even if no one watches them. I’m silly and I don’t care. But today, I tried to be a bit more uppercrust (in my t-shirt and yoga pants) as I answered this week’s VlogMom prompt. It comes [...]

#VlogMom: This time, I’m going shopping

July 12, 2012

So I keep asking you if it’s annoying to watch me on video and you never respond. I take that to mean two things: 1. You aren’t even here in the first place so you can’t weigh in. 2. You don’t want to hurt my feelings. It doesn’t matter because it’s fun for me anyway. [...]

The Smile That Won My Heart

June 28, 2012

It’s kind of odd that I’m writing about something so near and dear to my heart after I feel like I was just talking about this last weekend and even touched on it with my post last Sunday. But what I described was more of a love story. The story of how I met my husband, [...]

My Mother and the Woman I Didn’t Know

May 2, 2012

This Mother’s Day, I’m working with Clever Girls in support of Macy’s Heart of Haiti to shine a light on the “trade, not aid” program, which provides sustainable income to Haitian artisans struggling to rebuild their lives and support their families after the 2010 earthquake.   “Mother is a verb, not a noun.” ~ Proverb [...]

Thermoplastic Compound Shoes That Make You Feel Like Dansko Royalty

April 4, 2012

You either love ‘em or you hate ‘em. Well, maybe that’s not quite right. You either like ‘em or you hate ‘em. And I’m talking about Crocs. Source: someecards.com via Fadra on Pinterest   Since you probably want to know where I stand, I personally like them. I don’t love them but I’m not part [...]

Top 10 Things NOT Worth Paying For

April 2, 2012

Last week, I decided to come up with a random list of things I think are worth paying for. Not that I wouldn’t actually pay for something. It’s simply that I would pay more, out of pocket, for those ten things. And then you added your favorites and I realized I missed a lot. Like [...]

What to Wear on a Hot Date

March 30, 2012

It’s springtime is most parts of this hemisphere. That means the snow has melted. Flowers are blooming and the spring wardrobe is rearing its head. If you live in the South, your summer wardrobe might be calling your name as well. It’s been unseasonably warm and that brings me to my yearly quandary of what to [...]

The Post About Aging and Spa Treatments

January 20, 2012

Last week, I was waxing philosophical about taking charge of my life and my health. And I was celebrating that one pound I lost that stayed off. Well, it didn’t stay off but I didn’t get one bit discouraged. I still drink my green smoothies and, yes, I just finished week 2 of the Couch to [...]

My Haircut Manifesto

January 6, 2012

I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with my hair. Actually, I take that back. I mostly have always hated it. It’s fine, it’s thin(ning), and it always seems to want to do what it wants do. Namely, fall straight in front of my face. I always had dreams of my hair looking like this: (For [...]
