Summer Fun :: Learning How to Surf
My husband has been waiting patiently for our daughter to be a strong enough swimmer to teach her how to surf. He has been dreaming of one day heading to the beach with her and surfing the waves together since she first started to walk! But he had to wait to teach her how to surf and make sure she was a strong swimmer. Strong enough to take a couple tumbles in the surf.

Order medicines online safely with the new .pharmacy
Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Carmen Catizone, MS, RPh, DPh (Executive Director/Secretary of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy a/k/a “NABP“) and lawyer, Libby Baney, J.D. (Founder/Executive Director of Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies a/k/a “ASOP Global“) regarding the June 3rd launch and release of .pharmacy [dot pharmacy] to the general public.

And wow, did I find it…

Summer Fun :: Family Vacation Tips
Are you planning on taking a family trip this summer? Do the kids love car rides or are they always asking “are we there yet?” Two summers ago we drove up to Tahoe and my daughter wore a shirt that said “Road Trip” and on the back it said “Are We There Yet?” She was a pretty good traveler but I wish that I had this Vacation Journal that my friend Colleen created. I love all the fun activities the kids can do prior to the trip, during the car ride and even after you are back home. Here are some ideas to make your trip enjoyable for all! …

In the Spotlight: Best Fiends Keeps You Entertained
Best Fiends Fiend (Noun) [/Feend/]: “A Mythical, mischievous little creature inhabiting the world of Minutia.” You probably remember the scene in Gladiator when Russell Crowe’s character yells to the crowd “are you not entertained?” That line kept going through my mind while playing the very popular app Best Fiends by developer Seriously. Yes, seriously, that is their name and one my daughter got a kick out of since this is one of her favorite words these days! I have to say I was very entertained playing this game! One of the reasons I think Best Fiends is so popular is because of the funny background story of the Best Fiends and…
