Most of you know that I also write a review blog, Mummy’s Product Reviews. Initially, I didn’t set out to write product reviews. It all started right here back in 2006 when as a weekly feature I did ‘The Product of the Week’. People were always asking me about places to go, brands, beauty items, [...]
Blogher 2010, I’m Talking to You!
July 27, 2009 By 3 Comments
Blogher 2009 had the theme of “Blogher09 is People”. Every time I heard that phrase all I could think of was a quote from the Muppets Take Manhattan, “is frogs, is pigs, is chickens and stuff… is New York!” Oddly, Blogher 2010 is New York. Now that I am home, sticky with teething biscuit crumbs [...]
There is No Holy Grail.

Ahem… is this thing on? Right then. Listen up, Internets! It seems we have a few issues to address here at Blogher09. It’s come to my attention through my own personal experience, plain viewing and accounts from other blogging friends and blog-strangers that there is a different sort of vibe in the air here at [...]
It’s Like I Don’t Know My Own Blog Anymore
July 7, 2009 By 3 Comments
My brain is a bit fuzzy today. Probably from all the buzzing it has been doing this morning as I try and get a grasp on what this blog is really all about. See, I’m going to be on a little radio show this afternoon (2pm EST) called, Role Mommy and Friends. I just know [...]

Last Friday I took a trip two years in the making. I boarded a metro train bound for the city and met up with a friend. After a delightful dinner of tapas and sangria and a quick stop for cupcakes we made our way to the Jen Lancaster, Pretty in Plaid, book signing. Awww… look [...]
Hershey Lockdown

One of the great things about blogging isn’t just the free stuff that sometimes arrives on my front door step but it is the opportunities it offers me to connect with other bloggers and get to know some of them on a more personal level (and you know, quit stalking them and such.) Most of [...]
Got Cancer? Hopefully, No.

Two weeks ago I got off a plane at Logan Airport in Boston, went into the women’s room and as I washed my hands I noticed a red bump under my left eye. A sty? Drat! Mainly annoying and sometimes itchy I assumed it would clear up in a few days. A week later and [...]
It’s a Good Morning All Around
March 30, 2009 By 2 Comments
You know what’s a great way to start a day? First, take a baby that has been blissfully sleeping through the night for the past week and allow them to wake you up every two hours. Said baby is not content at just seeing you enter her room but instead glares at you, flails her [...]
You Know You Are a Blogger If…

1. You have your “real life” friends and your online friends who you might not have ever met. You can have close relationships with both. 2. You are dying to attend CES each year. In your previous life you didn’t know what CES even is or that you “needed” all its lovely gadgets. 3. You [...]
Calling Webster’s Dictionary

I’m tweeting, I’m IM’ing, and um… yeah, not really posting or doing anything worky right now. Oh wait. That is my job. In the midst of it all I think I made up a new word today- blogfrence. I think it’s pretty self explanatory. I’m totally calling it and when the NYTimes uses it in [...]
