Yum-o (to quote Rachel Ray)! I am already a big fan of Kashi and I was so excited to see their new entree selections! After Gabe was born I joined a weight-loss program and learned a lot about how to eat correctly. The nutritionists I worked with raved about Kashi and really got me hooked, … Read more
Best of Sephora
Sephora.com has their “Best of” list out for their top products of the year. I LOVE Sephora but unless a friend recommends a certain product, I usually get overwhelmed by the choices and don’t know what to pick! This Mircoderm. kit is fantastic though and won the “Best Skin Treatment” award. I usually use Avon’s … Read more

The Big “0-5”!
It’s been a busy week getting ready for Gabe’s fifth birthday! Thursday is the big event and I’ve been running around trying to get everything set. One of his gifts will be this photo book which I spent an obnoxious amount of time working on. It’s called “Faith, Family, Friends and Fun!” a journal of … Read more
Correction!
Check out this funny e-mail I just received:Brooke –I read your blog every so often, and was reading your little blurb about the Frog Pod…it is cool, but since we don’t have kids, don’t need it. However…I had to laugh…what, exactly, is a “foul swoop”? Did you mean “fell swoop”? I just have this picture … Read more

This Too, Shall Pass
I keep repeating that phrase this week. It has been an extraordinarily difficult 7 days and I’m so happy the weekend is almost here. For starters, Jim and I have been running on little or no sleep for days on end. Little Garrett is waking up twice a night and then my alarm goes off … Read more
Super Sales!
Yesterday I hit the mall to refresh my wardrobe a little. Still not 100% in my pre-preggo clothes so it’s tough to know what size to buy, but luckily I’m not too far off (darn those few extra pounds). Anyway, we hit the mother load at New York & Co.! Excellent deals and some fabulous … Read more
Big Day
Today was a milestone. My first born, my son Gabriel entered kindergarten. I think I cried every day this week, and I keep breaking down today but as it was happening… I was strangely calm and Jim and I both held it together! We went to breakfast and talked to Gabe about the day, his … Read more
Wonderful, Wacky Birthday
I only have 2 minutes but I just had to post a photo of my birthday cake! This is mostly for my friend Linda who knows how much I loved it. So, one of my favorite movies ever is Steel Magnolias. Well, there is a scene (at Julia Robert’s wedding) where they serve the groom’s … Read more
