It's all about the families...
All during the month of December holiday movies and specials are playing on every TV channel, like It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, A Charlie Brown Christmas, or those claymation Christmas movies we all know.

While YES we would be happy with anything that came in a “blue box,” there many other things we are wishing for this season…. @HipMamaB: Botox, a few IPL Sessions and a Shark steamer vacuum @GingerAnderson:… [Continue Reading]
A few weeks ago a trip to my local Trader Joe’s yielded this: I know. Insanity in a jar. I’m not sure what you are really supposed to do with it other than eat it with a baby spoon. It’s THAT good. But I was up for the challenge – the ultimate thing to smear… [Continue Reading]

My family celebrates Christmas on December 25th, just like rest of the Christians in this country. But we have another December tradition that has been handed down through generations. Like many countries in Europe we celebrate St. Nicholas’ Day. This tradition comes from my German/Scandinavian roots and is widely un-known to many here in the… [Continue Reading]

Sure this season is a great time for pies and cobblers, but sometimes I crave something that really melts as soon as it hits my tongue. Something rich with a tinge of sweet. Let me introduce to you… [Continue Reading]
Back in October when the iPhone 4S came out, Stefanie, Theresa and I had a in-depth conversation about which model to get. With the promise of iCloud, and simply making sure to delete unwanted pictures and video, I argued that 16 GB was really all I needed. Theresa and Stefanie worried that with the 50… [Continue Reading]
I go through app phases. Sometimes I can go months without downloading, or even considering, a new app, while some weeks I’m downloading them like iTunes is about to go outta business. I’m in a downloading-like-a-madwoman phase at the moment. It started a few weeks ago while shopping with a girlfriend and our daughters. She… [Continue Reading]
