This may come as a shock to you (after I professed my love to cardio barre), but I’ve been all about boot camp lately. By lately, I mean once a week the past 3 weeks, because with my mom guilt, I continue to allow myself one night a week to go to the gym after…

Brunch at The House {Restaurant Review}
A couple months ago, my in-laws were in town and offered to watch Baby M while the husband and I had a “day date.” Since we weren’t feeling any of our go-to favorites and I’d recently heard an advertisement for The House, we decided to check out this new(ish) restaurant for brunch. The House is…
Freekeh-Stuffed Peppers + A Giveaway! {Closed}
Let’s get our freekeh on! I know, you’re probably thinking, “excuse me?!” Let me explain. As a Sweat Pink Ambassador with Fit Approach, I recently had the opportunity to sample a new-to-me grain, freekeh. So—what exactly is freekeh? According to the Freekeh Foods website, Freekeh is a process which means “to rub” in Arabic. Freekeh was…
Firmoo Glasses Giveaway {Closed}
Just in case the Monday Blues have you feeling down, I’ve got a little something that should cheer you up! Last February I reviewed a pair of stylish eyeglasses from Firmoo, and they’ve offered to give away a pair of their glasses to one of you! If you’re not familiar, Firmoo is an online optical…
Simple and Sweaty 20-Minute Jump Rope Circuit + TKO Soft Grip Jump Rope Review
You’ve heard me go on and on about how tough it is to hit the gym now that I’m a working mother. Realizing my complaining was accomplishing very little, I decided to start doing one or two at-home circuit workouts during the week. While I love perusing the various blogs I follow for inspiration, I…
Ambronite Review (Alternatively: When You Forget To Eat)
Being a mom is challenging. Although our responsibilities and lifestyles vary, I’m sure that all mothers could agree on two things: we’re always busy and we’re always tired. Before Baby M, I had a good bit of leisure time. I worked 8-5, but I could spend my evenings (and mornings, if I chose) as I…
On the Right Foot: Kushyfoot Review
Let’s talk about feet. Oh, you mean that doesn’t entice you to hang around? Maybe I should’ve said let’s talk about Kushyfoot®. Recently Lipton Publicity sent me a package of assorted Kushyfoot® products to review. In case you’ve never heard of them, Kushyfoot® is a hosiery/footwear company whose stylish products feature specially designed soles that…
Sunset Pointe Review
Early last month, Mark and I enjoyed lunch at the fairly new Sunset Pointe restaurant at Fly Creek Marina. The location itself isn’t new—it was once home to the Fly Creek Café—but Pete Blohme’s recent incarnation opened early this year (Pete is also the owner of Panini Pete’s, one of my favorite local sandwich spots,…
Smart Coffee App Review
I’ve been a fan of coffee for many years. In fact, my love for it first began to brew (pun intended) when I was a teenager and would wake up early during holiday breaks to have a cup of coffee with my dad while reading the newspaper. In college, I grew to appreciate coffee on…
7th Anniversary at The Melting Pot
This past Sunday was Mark’s and my 7th anniversary. It’s crazy how fast time has flown since we said our vows, danced the night away, and nearly suffocated on wedding cake thanks to a photographer who was really awful at giving instructions. Good times! Since we’re old folk who like to relax on Sunday evenings,…
