When the kids were younger, I worried about foods staining their clothes, which explains the countless bibs everywhere. At one point it was so bad that I had 'eating shirts' for the twins, that poor fabric didn't know what hit it. Then as the kids grew older and their dexterity perfected, I didn't cringe serving spaghetti {that is, unless they are in a silly mood with the chance of flinging}. Thing is, proper use of ... read more
Top Gaiam Picks – Fitness Lover Gifts
Over this past year I dedicated myself to eating better and moving more. Dust no longer collected on the treadmill which has been in my basement for 10+ years - I was using it! It started with walks, then moved to speed walks and then to the occasional jog - then I added free weights and my balance ball. I'm not a runner and I'm not hard-core, but I'm making progress and that's what matters. Day by day I see beneficial ... read more

Old Navy, Outerwear Collection
I became a tad hooked on the outerwear at Old Navy a couple of years ago, when I bought myself a Wool-Blended Double Breasted Coat. It quickly became my favorite and was seen on me on most colder days.
