Tech Thursday: WineStein Pro iPhone App

December 29, 2011 Foodie

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been in and out for the holidays. This time of year is super busy and I’m tired, but that hasn’t stopped my lust for time-saving technology or wine. Thankfully, I found the WineStein iPhone application and it’s been a boon. I don’t know about you, but when I’m at [...]

Self-Care and the Holidays

December 26, 2011 Wellness

I realize I’ve really been slack about self-care, especially during the Holiday season. My water consumption is down and coffee consumption is astronomical. When I start adding in sugar, too many processed foods and subtracting exercise? Friends, I’m a hot mess. Sitting here tonight, I’m working on my plans for self-care. No, I’m not waiting [...]

Holiday Air Travel

December 13, 2011 Lifestyle

While we are in full swing with the holiday season, it would be remiss of me not to share tips on how to save time at their airport, but make life easier for you to boot. I’m not the biggest fan of air travel. Maybe if it still retained an air of glamor and mystery [...]

This is Stefania. She’s my sister from another Mother. We’ve never met face to face, but know deep down inside that 2012 is our year. Stefania also runs this company called Clever Girls Collective (with three amazingly insanely productive partners), has three gorgeous children and still has time to do her nails. People, this woman [...]

Cooking with Macy’s: Cat Cora’s Mashed Potatoes

December 10, 2011 Cooking

Winter is a time to stay indoors and enjoy the warmth of hearth and home. In my house, we also like the warmth of certain comfort foods. My boys are particularly fond of mashed potatoes. So, I’m continuing my series of recipes from the Macy’s Culinary Council Thanksgiving & Holiday Cookbook and sharing Cat Cora’s [...]

Zaarly: App Connecting Local Buyers & Sellers

December 8, 2011 Lifestyle

Driving all over the country has never been a favorite of mine unless I wind up someplace with sand, the ocean and frozen drinks. I’m keen on keeping things local. I also like to buy and sell items locally thru sites like eBay Local and Craigslist. However, I’ve had a few fishy encounters that have [...]

Holiday Travel Prep — Car Edition

December 6, 2011 Lifestyle

In just a few short weeks, people by the millions will be hitting the road for Holiday travel. According to RITA (Research and Innovative Technology Administration) and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), “most long-distance holiday travel, about 91 percent, is by personal vehicle, such as by car”. That’s a lot of rubber hitting the road. While we normally [...]

Skin Overkill

December 5, 2011 Lifestyle

I’m getting older and with aging I’m feeling the pressure, albiet self-induced, to slow down Mother Nature’s march all over my face. And I might have gotten into a serious case of overkill. My skin has been covered in patches of dry, itchy, flaky skin and felt like worn out leather. Rubbing and scratching your [...]

Fancy Weeknight Cocktail in a Flash

November 30, 2011 Foodie

I love cooking for people. It’s part of my genetics as a Southern woman. We cook and show our love with food. Our pantries are always stocked and ready for a guest at the drop of a hat. So are our bars. You never know when you are going to need to make a fancy [...]
