    February 26, 2016 /

    EDDIE THE EAGLE – IN THEATERS FEBRUARY 26 Inspired by true events, Eddie the Eagle is a feel-good story about Michael “Eddie” Edwards (Taron Egerton), an unlikely but courageous British ski-jumper who never stopped believing in himself – even as an entire nation was counting him out.

    Reduce Stress and Reconnect with your Kids

    February 25, 2016 /

    Winter break was a welcome treat for me and my family. My kids and I needed it. Badly. Like many other parents, I spend most days doing schoolwork, shuttling kids around to activities, running errands and trying to keep up with the chores. When we started homeschooling last year, I thought we would be less pressed for time. That just isn’t the case. Before Winter break I found myself struggling to keep up. I was irritable and anxious. My kids were seeing a lot of “Grouchy Mommy”. Over the break I realized that I needed to back off of our schedule and take breaks for us to reconnect. We were…

    Still Using the Power Pressure Cooker (Pt 2)

    February 25, 2016 /

    Most of you know if you read my last post about the Power Pressure Cooker XL that I am experimenting and trying some of my tried and true – regular oven/stove top made recipes in it. Obviously, I am still using it (almost daily) and I’m still in awe of it and daily feel as if someone gave me magic beans! I still love being a “lemming” / having a “lemming pot” and the best part is that the kids are really enjoying – and I mean REALLY enjoying their food too! Never has food tasted as flavorful before. I mean I can cook and felt like I was a…

        Disney Pixar Animation Studios The Good Dinosaur out on DVD 2/23   A few weeks ago I was invited to attend the in-home global media event for The Good Dinosaur in Los Angeles.  It was such a wonderful experience and after hearing from the director, Peter Sohn, and Alonso Martinez, who is part of the Character Department at Pixar, I gained a whole new appreciation for the movie.  From the amazing animation and attention to detail, to the music soundtrack, so much energy and time went into making The Good Dinosaur be the quality movie that it is.   Alonso Martinez (Modeling Rigging/Character Department) Alonso Martinez is part of the…

    5 Unique Ideas to Bring More Color into Your Home

    February 23, 2016 /

          For many years now I have been decorating my home with neutrals.  From my light colored grey walls, to wood furniture, I have preferred to stick to neutrals.  But this past year I’ve been drawn to homes that are decorated with pops of color.  I adore Jonathan Adler’s style, Interior Decorator/Author Emily Henderson and the countless talented designers you find on Instagram.  The homes I am most drawn to are where we see a mix of textiles, textures and color.  Are you finding your tastes are changing as well?  Here are some simple ideas to help bring some color into your home.  Anything from painting chairs you find at your local discount store to painting the inside of…
