    I recently got a job writing about fashion for a monthly magazine, which is quite laughable, especially to my bus stop moms who know my true sense of style--pajamas layered with leggings, giant sweaters and slippers that rarely match. True, I have always had a unique style, but whether it has been fashionable is the question.  Read more >

    Check out Campbell Brown's recent statement: "Tonight I call on the McCain campaign to stop treating Sarah Palin like she is a delicate flower that will wilt at any moment," said Brown. "This woman is from Alaska for crying out loud. She is strong. She is tough. She is confident. And you claim she is ready to be one heart beat away form the presidency. If that is the case, then end this chauvinistic treatment of her now. Allow her to show her stuff. Allow her to face down those pesky reporters... Let her have a real news conference with  Read more >

    I have just about had it with Weight Watchers. Counting, gaining, losing, counting. There is a new book on weight loss/health that I am reading right now: Mind Over Body: The Key to Lasting Weight Loss Is All In Your Head by Celebrity Fitness Trainer/Guru Nordine Zouareg. He was doing a blog tour recently, so I sent the cute coach my questions: MH: It seems like your plan is The Secret meets Weight Watchers. What are the differences?  Read more >

    I recently had an opportunity to lie in bed and catch up on some long lost reading. I am always a bit surprised that I still know how to read considering the slow and consistent brain degeneration that has occurred since my children were born. Scanning food labels, calculating Weight Watcher points and reading Biscuit Goes to School with my kids seems to have prevented my gray matter from completely turning to mush.  Read more >
