Stop Dreading Bathing Suit Shopping!

Stop Dreading Bathing Suit Shopping!

July 27, 2010 · 8 Comments 

I have the answer for you! Beach Belle With Beach Belle you can shop for a suit that fits you from the privacy of your own home.   There are so many issues with Bathing Suit Shopping. Bad lighting, having to actually see yourself in the suit under that lighting, and never knowing which suit actually looks good on you. As a mom, I want a suit that I’m comfortable in and that I can move around in.  I mean, I could wear a bikini, if I didn’t eat all day, was only lying down, and sucked in like there was no tomorrow.  That’s unrealistic with a Pre-Schooler to chase around.  Beach... [Read the full story]

Anxiety and the New School Year

Anxiety and the New School Year

July 28, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

We can all remember our first day of school, emotions everywhere. It was a day full of excitement and anxiety and for some of us of one outweighed the other. The feeling of butterflies in your stomach and not knowing what the day will bring can be scary and when you are not prepared to handle this “new thing” it can be overwhelming. Being prepared to enter into a new school year is vital to our teens’ success in school; so we must equip them with the tools needed to handle all that they will encounter, easing the anxiety ultimately eliminating it all together. At school our teens are being... [Read the full story]

San Diego is crawling with Cougars on the Prowl

San Diego is crawling with Cougars on the Prowl

July 30, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

When I first moved to San Diego, 5 short years ago I learned that this charming little seaside town was crawling with Cougars.   I know what you’re thinking, and I thought the same thing.  Cougars in San Diego?  Surely these people have been in the sun to long. I had only just moved here from Arizona and didn’t want to cause problems.  So I went along with it and pretended that Del Mar was crawling with Cougars.  I’d even make comments like “Oh Honey, I saw a cougar crossing the PCH today” or “I nearly escaped a cougar attack today.”  Why not just... [Read the full story]

29 weeks, Justin Bieber, and my 7 yr old daughter found a porn site

This weeks post is a little bittersweet. It is also embarrassing. No one wants to admit that they didn’t protect the computer enough to protect their child, but I feel I should share our story. When this happened, I clambered the internet to figure out how to deal with it. So here goes… My daughter gets up quite early, before the rest of the house most days. She likes to get on the computer and go to sites like PBS kids, Friv.com and Club Penguin. She isn’t allowed on YouTube, but I have not sworn her off Google. The only times she ever went on google was to research “How... [Read the full story]

Gorton’s Seafood Recipe Challenge: Grilled Tilapia Fish Tacos with Creamy Cilantro-Lime Dressing

Gorton’s Seafood Recipe Challenge: Grilled Tilapia Fish Tacos with Creamy Cilantro-Lime Dressing

March 30, 2010 · 3 Comments 

Gorton’s Seafood contacted me several weeks ago to try their New! Grilled Tilapia.  We came up with the idea for me and fellow Rock On Mommie, Theresa (she’s also the founder of the Rockonmommies website) to each come up with a recipe using the Gorton’s New! Grilled Tilapia. I’m sure many of you hear Gorton’s Seafood and immediately think ‘fish sticks’, but it is so much more than that!  They have an entire grilled seafood line and the New! Tilapia is awesome.  Each filet only has 80 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, and is packed with 14 grams of protein!  All you have to do is... [Read the full story]

Lindsay Lohan…what do you think of when you hear that name? I think of the phrase “what a waste!”  Here was a young lady who had everything going for her career-wise and she let herself get in the way. Originally she was charged with a DUI.  Here in Arizona a first time DUI offender receives the following sentence: 10 days in jail with 9 of those days suspended if they successfully complete probation (meaning they do what they are ordered to do); their license is suspended for 90 days; they have to use an ignition interlock device on any vehicle they drive for a year; they have to pay... [Read the full story]

If you’ve ever been to my house, then you have no doubt seen my lack of green thumb.  I have dying plants everywhere!   So I was a little worried that I would mess this review up, not because of the product, but because I have the crazy ability to kill plants. I absolutely love this product.  It’s...
