This past week, I was invited, along with other bloggers and press to Johnson & Johnson’s celebration of the 125 Anniversary of the First Aid Kit. Did you know that the first commercial First Aid Kit was originally designed to help railroad workers care for the wounds and injuries they received from laying railroad track back in 1888? And obviously, since then, the First Aid Kit is now just a part of…
My husband Michael and I have lived in New York City for over 21 years. I went to college here and basically never left; he moved to the City after living in Hermosa Beach, California for two years. When we got married and decide to have children, it was just understood between us that we would bring up our family in the City. Thirteen years later, we’re still very much rooted…
Who has a pile of your kids school work that look like this: And who knows what to do with it?? I had to get my act together if this was something that I was going to accumulate for the next 15 years! I figured out a system that I put into place last year when S started nursery school and O was in second grade. It’s a system that works…
Growing up in the suburbs of New Jersey, I grew up in a well-run home. My mom taught me how to shine the silver and polish the wood. Also, every six months, she changed the bedding and window treatments to suit the season, so we had a winter look and a spring look. My mom was a bit like Sandra Lee from “Semi-Homemade” where her set changes depending on the season or the…
Thanks to The Bully Project for sponsoring my writing. Visit their website to join the movement and learn more. I remember this girl in middle school who was a year older than me.

The girls reading their books on the subway. Love our Little New Yorkers.
When I was pregnant with our second daughter back in 2007, I distinctly remember being six months pregnant and cleaning our bathtub with an abrasive powder cleaner that reeked of chemicals. I remember thinking, “This smells so bad, it’s making me sneeze and cough, this CAN’T be good for me or this little baby in my tummy!” That moment started my quest in finding non-toxic, eco-friendly cleaning products. For some…
Although we so miss the ice skating rink at Battery Park City, we’ve made do with ice skating uptown in Wollman Rink at Central Park. It’s a great way to spend with the family, not to mention a great core and thigh workout for the mommys and daddys. It’s a pretty big rink but expect for it to be crowded. We went last Saturday morning – when it was 60…
