I'm thrilled to be a part of the Tropicana Team as one of their TropiMomma Ambassadors. I've been a Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice consumer for as long as I can remember and it's a product I believe in and buy every week for my family. According to a Tropicana survey, one in four Americans start the day off in a bad mood. I hate to say that I am THAT one. It's the "waking up early" part that I dislike. I love mornings but I wish I wasn't exhausted as soon as I get up. It does change … [Read more...]

A Kleenex Field Trip at the Amercian Museum of Natural History (AMNH)
August 17, 2011 by 3 Comments
I grew up visiting the American Museum of Natural History. The museum has a special place in my heart not only because I enjoy visiting every year but because my first visit to the museum happened when I was just six-years-old. It was my very first field trip with my first grade class. It's funny, my daughter is now six-years-old and I remembered my first visit through her eyes. So for me, it's a nostalgic feeling each and every time I visit. Last Thursday, my kids and I visited the … [Read more...]

P&G Family Movie Night: “Who is Simon Miller?” Premieres August 6, 2011
July 29, 2011 by 2 Comments
P&G and Walmart have partnered together to create movies that families can watch together. As a mom of 3, it's often difficult to watch a movie that is age-appropriate for everyone, including my 6-year-old. There are times where we have to stop the movie right smack in the middle because of what was said or what they showed on the screen. Watching movies that are appropriate for the whole family always get a 2 thumbs up from me. "Who is Simon Miller?" is one of them. I was fortunate … [Read more...]

July 16, 2011 by 4 Comments
{Scroll down below for a slideshow} Recently I went to a cooking class at the French Culinary Institute where I was invited by FAGE (pronounced Fa-yeh) to cook alongside with other bloggers. Honestly, I never bought FAGE yogurt nor have I tasted it but I was intrigued on how to incorporate yogurt into everyday cooking so I obliged. Here's a little history: The Beginning: In 1926, Athanassios Filippou opened a small dairy shop in Athens, Greece. At the time, the shop’s location was … [Read more...]

I’m A Chronic Canceler
June 24, 2011 by 17 Comments
On Thursday's episode of The Talk, Tisha Campbell-Martin was the special guest star. On one of the segments, Sharon stated that it was extremely rude for Lindsay Lohan to cancel a very high-profile interview with the Today Show, Matt Lauer being the interviewer, who flew thousands of miles from New York to California. Lindsay's excuse was that her urine was found with alcohol and had to attend to that matter. We all know very well that Lindsay has gotten herself into trouble numerous times in … [Read more...]
Kick Off the First Day of Summer with Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules
June 21, 2011 by Leave a Comment
Like I said before, I'm a kid at heart. I love animated movies and any movies suitable for children. It's something I can watch and not worry if something inappropriate will "show up" and make my eyes bleed knowing my kids saw something that wasn't for their innocent eyes (I'm really referring to my 6 y/o - the other two know more than I think they know!). The one movie I did enjoy and saw dozens of times with my kids was Diary of a Wimpy Kid, based on the best-selling book series by … [Read more...]
