I recently attended a Philadelphia mom blogger bash at the Nail Bar in Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia (if you haven’t been, you need to go!) hosted by the lovely Audrey McClelland of Mom Generations and sponsored by P&G (the makers of Olay, Pampers, Bounty and Duracell, you know, just to name a few!). It was so […]
The Philadelphia Museum of Art Presents: Art Splash! Great Summer Exhibitions, Festivals and Programs for the Whole Family!
With my kids home during the day and on the weekends during the summer, it’s hard for me to come up with fun activities and outings to keep them entertained while staying on budget. Parents, does this sound familiar? This summer the Philadelphia Museum of Art is kicking-off Art Splash, a new series of exhibitions, festivals, […]
Despicable Me 2 *GIVEAWAY*
I don’t know about you, but ever since “Despicable Me” came out, I was really hoping they would do a sequel (just for some more Minion action alone!). Well, Gru and his army of Minions are back in “Despicable Me 2” coming to theatres nationwide on July 3! My Minion prayers have been answered (seriously, […]

Discover the Forest: Get Your Community Outdoors!
I’ve fallen in love with GOOD Maker (maker.GOOD.is) — crowd-sourcing for a better world. Since discovering the GOOD Maker platform, it’s become my new “go-to” social media distraction. GOOD Maker inspires me to propose a good idea, to evaluate and vote for solutions– which is a way more productive use of my time than pinning a bunch […]
There’s a NEW Facebook game in town: Tail Towns Friends by Ganz
If there wasn’t enough drama on Facebook, a new game called Tail Towns Friends by Ganz is taking the gaming world by storm with intriguing story lines, fun interactive goals and a little mystery and suspense built in. I’ll confess that I am not a fan of Facebook games, but I do enjoy Tail Towns […]
Whiten Your Teeth for Less With Arm & Hammer
When I see the celebs on TV, I’m sometimes blinded by their shiny, white teeth. Since I love coffee, red wine and many foods that stain teeth, I’m a bit jealous of their smiles. Cosmetic dentistry is very expensive, and whitening strips make my teeth feel sensitive. What’s a mom to do? I’ve tried whitening […]
Switch and Save With Arm & Hammer Toothpaste
Finding the time to take good care of myself is hard to manage. As many moms know, personal care and beauty tend to fall to the bottom of the ever-growing “to-do” list. I make time to brush and floss twice daily, so I avoid cavities. But maintaining pearly white teeth feels like much more of […]
Fighting Stains With Arm & Hammer
As a mom to two little boys, I deal with a lot of messes. Boys are stain magnets. Between the grass stains and mud stains from a day on the playground or a muddy soccer game and the ketchup stains from summer barbecue parties, it is tough keeping their clothing looking like new. Using hand-me […]
What Stains Drive You Crazy?
My little boys are high energy; they zoom from one activity to the next without stopping for a breath. My older son loves soccer, which is a wonderful way to keep active, but terrible for keeping his clothes clean. Everything winds up with a grass or mud stain. The clothes that manage to escape the […]
