The nights are cooling off a little, and the grills are starting to say bye bye to the summer a little. But before you pop the cover on it for a little hibernation, get ready to be amazed what you can grill (and possibly should be grilling). Thanks to writer Adriana Velez for the heads-up […]
What a blast it was to have City Harbor in the studio this morning! Check out their new single “Come However You Are” at their website http://cityharbormusic.com/
I have ants…and I HATE THEM!! The apartment complex has supposedly sent someone out to our apartment to do something about the little creepers, but they still haven’t gone away. And what’s weird is that we’re finding them in the weirdest places, like the bathroom and our dresser–it’s not like I hide chocolate bars in […]
Messes happen, as many have seen what can happen if a napkin isn’t used when eating anything with dressing or condiments on them. Some of the worst offenders of mess…KIDS!! Okay, maybe not all kids, but a good majority of messes can come out of a busy little 7 year old. And honestly, that is perfectly […]
What excuse have you used about working out recently? Soreness can’t even describe how I felt 2 days AFTER I did a mixed workout, which included some fun Zumba…and the wretched Mountain Climbers my new friend in radio, Rob Dempsey, decided to toss into the mix “for fun.” I probably wasn’t the only one out […]
Getting online and seeing your child’s Facebook post that has about 10 words that should have NEVER been typed is probably right up there with catching them in the act of playing hooky! The blood gets to bowling, the veins possibly going into overdrive, and you may pass out right there at the keyboard as […]
“Do you have any homework tonight?” A simple question, yet it can spark what becomes a familiar argument throughout a child’s school years.
Okay, maybe the meal won’t cost ONLY $1, but you’d like to spend a small amount of money on a huge amount of fun with friends or family tonight (or any night). Nathan and I just recently spent under $5 on maybe some unhealthy fast-food, but was delicious, filling, and fun to have while watching […]
There are those few in the world who LOVE to clean, a “fun” hobby for them in fact. Whether you’re one of these people or not, it’s good to have knowledge of what could be mistaken as the “Right” way to clean something when it’s exactly the opposite! Here are a few mistakes you could […]
Just a few short years ago (okay, maybe almost 10 years ago), a bright-eyed college Freshman received a request through her student email to join something called Facebook. Who would have known that the social media website that only select colleges were using would turn into the chaotic craziness of updates, photos, and other choice […]
When spending one single dime, my parent’s taught me to squeeze as much out of that dime as possible. Everything from heading straight to the back of clothing stores for sales, to using a coupon if you can, paying full price for things almost never happened growing up. You may be on this same track, […]
Come one, come all to check out who and what songs are up to win a Dove award this year, winners announced October 15th!
Don’t know if you’ve encountered this recently, but I can’t stand when you buy fresh fruits and veggies, just to turn around 5 days later and see them already getting icky (especially spinach lately)!! And what’s worse is you only have one day each week to buy new food, not everyday. Have no fear–there may be some […]
You’re going to cry … and that’s okay. She’s not going to cry … and that’s okay. You’re going to think about her all day … and that’s okay. She’s going to think about you once or twice … and that’s okay. You’re going to be there way too early to pick her up … […]
Some myths we’ve been taught in life just NEED to be busted. I mean, I lost soooo many hours of fun in the pool as a kid because I “had to” wait 15 minutes after I ate to swim–Total Myth! For mom’s to be, thanks to columnist Carly Pizzani, there are a few myths […]
Vaccines, school supplies, and so much more. Even if you’re not a parent like myself, it seems the start of the school year can feel overwhelming…and I haven’t been in school for almost 7 years!! Everywhere you turn, it’s the trending topic with tips and tools to gear-up and get ready. And yes, you’ll find […]
The lunches are made and chillin’ in the fridge and the clothes are laid out nicely for the new morning to arrive. School has officially kicked off for some, with teachers figuring those last-minute details out and children sleeping in for just a few more days. Well, before the craziness of […]
Sometimes you just need a little extra umph to get your praise going, whether day or night. Yes, Chris Tomlin or Kari Jobe can bring the one-two punch of worship music as always, but what about something a little outside-the-box? This time around, our NEW MUSIC SHOWDOWN (NMS) is between 2 songs that add a […]
or the longest time growing up, I would eat anything EXCEPT for condiments on my sandwiches, hotdogs, or other foods similar. I guess my thought was I wanted to taste the bread, meat, and cheese concoction I was about to enjoy…or you could call me weird. As I’ve grown into adult world, the pallet has changed, […]
When you speak for a living, anything that hinders that can be frustrating to no end. These last few days have been slightly that way, having to deal with a rascal of a canker sore inside my mouth. Been trying some of the home-remedies friends on Facebook have tossed my way, yet it doesn’t want […]
The moments when the little one goes from having “tummy time” to actually crawling around the floor can bring such a sense of pride for most parents. Yet, in the joy of it all, some things can be forgotten, like the glass of water you put down on the carpet for one second while eating […]
