Hershey’s Air (balloon) Delight

August 7, 2011

Hershey’s has brilliantly figured out how to marry chocolate and, well… air. I was invited along with other members of the media to literally taste their new aerated product elevated off of the ground in a hot air balloon-and it was one of the neatest things I’ve ever done. We were transported to New Jersey [...]

Foodcation with the Residence Inn

August 6, 2011

Perhaps it’s my age or the fact that I’m a wife and seasoned mother to nearly three children, but the brilliance of food and comfort have really taken a front seat on my priority list. Gone are the days when a meal was an afterthought and sleeping on an ottoman was indicative of a decent [...]

On the Road with Little People

July 29, 2011

Growing up in California, our lives were often sprinkled with yearly road trips. Some of them longer than others, but all of them memorable as quality time spent with family and friends. Being that we were smack in the middle of the state on the coast by the Bay, trips were somewhat easy to Lake [...]

Road Trip with the Nissan Quest

July 23, 2011

I’ve always had a thing for cars. When I got my first “new to me” car from the dealership, I was SO excited about the engine. Not the sunroof, or the leather heated seats, or the cd player. I fancied the engine because it had 6 cylinders and was the same one that is used [...]

Golden State Escape

June 29, 2011

We’re back in the city after an exciting, relaxing and restorative vacation back home to Northern California. Nothing like traveling back in time to land far, far away to gain a little perspective. Traveling to the airport and across the country alone with the kids was the easiest and smoothest to date… there were zero [...]

Britax Baby Carrier: Review and Giveaway

June 13, 2011

I’m a huge proponent of baby wearing, but my obsession with it didn’t start until Zoe was born and I was also chasing after an active 19 month old. Wearing Zoe on me changed my life for the better in so many ways… I cannot even fathom how I would have survived the first few [...]

Stroller Obsession: Bugaboo Donkey

May 26, 2011

The hottest item to land in the hands of New York City’s poshest parents is the new double stroller by Bugaboo. We were given a few precious weeks with the new Bugaboo Donkey, and while we aren’t the the ritziest crew around, I certainly felt like it for a brief stint. Before we moved to [...]

Road Full of Promise: Two Years

May 14, 2011

Today marks the second birthday of one of the coolest, most poignant projects of my life. I’ve been blogging now for two years exactly, and while it feels about right, I’m still in awe at the freedom and joy that documenting our journey to New York City from California has brought me. When I started [...]

Day Trip to Sesame Place (& Giveaway)

May 3, 2011

Over the weekend, we were invited to head out to Pennsylvania to celebrate Sesame Place’s opening day. The weather was promising and it’s been way too long since we all escaped the city as family, so we booked a Zip Car ($130 for a full day-worth it) and headed out for the afternoon. Look Mom! [...]

Touring in our Maclaren Twin Triumph

April 22, 2011

Since having two children 19 months apart, selling our cars and moving to Manhattan, I’ve become quite the stroller connoisseur. I need something that can tote two children plus all of their accoutrement, is easy to push for long distances and compact and light enough to carry down the stairs of the subway while holding [...]
