I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love to trade recipes with my friends but what makes us more excited than anything else, is getting a good deal. In the past, I had been too lazy to search for deals but now it’s a social activity and a fun one at that! A handful of…

HOW DO FRENCH WOMEN REALLY DRESS? Are They Actually Genetically Gifted in the Art of Chic? Kookai Spring 2010 dress My answer would be a resounding “YES”. The year was 1992. It was a frigid and snowy December, so, at the spur of the moment, I chose to go to Paris for the first time….
Courtesy of www.inhabitots.com It turns out attachment parenting isn’t scandalous at all, though some still consider it to be. In my opinion, it’s the healthiest form of parenting for a child and it’s how I am raising my second son, Daniel. But, I have still received criticism from friends and even some family members for…

Image Courtesy of eHow.com When Exactly Did We Start to Hate Our Bodies…? I can precisely pin-point the moment when I started to hate my body. I was twelve years old and my dad was a professor at UNLV, Las Vegas, Nevada. I hadn’t thought much about my appearance until the summer I would turn…
Image From the ‘Dove Real Beauty’ Campaign “When I looked in the mirror, it was like cutting my body up into different pieces and evaluating the pieces, as if it was some sort of thing … I would really focus on different parts and then rip those parts apart, being hypercritical. It was a violent…
Well, I can go ahead and slack off for the rest of 2010 because I have already had a fabulous experience. I recently attended the Discovery Communications 25th anniversary gala, where I saw many familiar faces from the Discovery networks.

One of my favorite singers, bar-none, almost wasn’t. That’s right. Her career almost never got started at the ripe old age of sixteen. She was sent to an audition at a famous singing hall because of the sound of her voice. A voice that was so sweet it sounded like angels carrying spoons of dripping…
