Here it is, it’s 2010, and it’s time for everyone to write down, confess, or talk about their resolutions and possibly break them within the next month or so. For me, instead of losing those last 6 lbs, eating healthier, or going to the gym more often, I have resolved to Be In The Present. The Hubby read me this quote: In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking,…

Ice Skating in Battery Park City!
Our six year old and I just went today to the ice skating rink in Battery Park City and we had a blast! What a great way to actually enjoy today’s cold weather. For $12 each, we were able to skate for an unlimited amount of time and rent pretty new skates and for an additional well-spent $3, we were able to rent a helmet. The facilities weren’t grand but…
Loving Essie’s Sexy Divide Manicure!
Just had to say it – had a manicure today and am loving Essie’s Sexy Divide color and am loving it! Must have short squoval nails otherwise they get too vampy and you just can’t be vampy AND a mom. At least not this one. My Essie “Sexy Divide” manicure by Yuya Salon in Tribeca
Don’t Judge me Because iDon’t have an iPhone
The only reason why iDon’t is because I really use my cell phone just for that: a phone. I’ve experienced enough dropped conversations with people who have the iPhone that buying one just for the coolness factor makes me…well…not want to be cool. So, need to know everyone’s thoughts on the new Verizon Droid…Positive, Negative? You’ve got the power of Google, the power of 3G, and the power of Verizon….
Free Dunkin’ Donuts Coffee Sample!
Ok, so I am a member of SheSpeaks, which is a community of women who sign up and share opinions on products. You sign up and based on your answers on several questionnaires, SheSpeaks sends you products that you test drive. You then log on, write your opinions and basically get heard by those products makers (usually big, large corporations!). It’s a great way to be ahead of the curve…
“Almost Lasagna” Recipe is a HIT!
The “Almost Lasagna” was a hit. The Hubby has eaten it a handful of times this week for dinner, I had it for lunch today and the kids had it for dinner/lunch at various times during the week. The marinated chicken was just as moist this evening over a salad. Healthy I must admit, although, my stomach is already starting to growl. We have maybe one more meal out of…
Let Me Be Clear: Get Window Guards!
It’s been over 9 weeks since our two-year old fell out of a two-story window from a house that we rented down at the Jersey Shore. The police said that her fall was about 18 feet high, and she landed on concrete. The miracle of all miracles happened, though. Little S came away with only a broken femur. No internal bleeding, no head trauma, no major injuries to her internal…
Just Call Me Top Chef
I have to give myself a pat on the back. I bought groceries at Whole Foods with hardly a melt-down from Sydney and with the food I bought, I was able to cook and plan dinner for Sunday night and Monday night – and possibly the rest of the week. I made two dishes: one that actually came from Disney.com called an Almost Lasagna Recipe and my mom’s tried and…
