Marie Callender’s Comforts From Home Project Aids our Troops
There was a Marie Callender’s restaurant near my childhood home in Tustin and our family use to go quite a bit. Their homemade chili and cornbread are just amazing and I loved ordering their pot pies as well. For me, Marie Callender’s offers such comfort food. And every now and then we all need that, don’t we?!

Celebrating Families this Holiday Season
Some of you might know about our family’s difficulty conceiving years ago and were told that the only way I would get pregnant was if I went through months of fertility drugs and artificial insemination due to hormonal issues I was having at the time. Since my mother was diagnosed with ovarian cancer at a young age (48), I wasn’t too keen on disrupting my hormones with drugs. Hearing those words in the doctors office was very painful and I remember feeling like I was somehow failing – myself and my husband. I think feeling this way is pretty normal when you are told you cannot have a child naturally and…

Raising Happy and Healthy Kids: What is the best way to keep our kids happy and healthy? Take them outside. Now do not get me wrong, this is not going to be some post about how our kids should never play video games (my daughter loves Minecraft) but we should not live in a society where it is considered a punishment for your kid if you take away the electronic devices and make them go outside to play. Keep it Simple: A lot of times as parents we overthink things. What kind of craft should we do? What kind of game should we play? I need to set up…

Creating the Ultimate Man Cave
We have dreamed, well, at least I have, of creating our garage into an extra room in the house with bean bags, old-school arcade games like PacMan and Galaga and a game station. I know my husband would love to have a putting green put in there as well! Best Buy has come up with some really cool ideas for creating the ultimate Man Cave. It sounds so prehistoric Man Cave and one can’t help but have visions of a man in animal skins carrying a bone – but you know your modern guy would love to have his own space to relax in and do as he pleases. Whether he…
