Drazil Kids Tea: A Healthy Drink Option for Kids

Posted on February 2, 2015 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: Drazil Kids Tea, healthy drink options for kids, kids fruit juice drinks | 8 Comments

If my daughter had it her way, she would drink lemonade or a juice box with her lunch every day at school. On the days when she gets hot lunch, she has the choice of milk or water. However when I pack her lunch, I include a reusable water bottle or juice pouch. The juice pouch makes it so convenient to throw into her backpack. I try to pick the ones with a low sugar content & it’s not always easy to find healthy drink options for my kiddo in … [Read more...]

Award Season: The Top Five Movies I’d Like to Watch

Posted on January 9, 2015 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff, Pop Culture | Tags: date night, Golden Globes, movie night, UrbanSitter | 16 Comments

The following post contains affiliate links. All opinions are 100% my own. Los Angeles folks love to joke about our four seasons in LA: Summer season (hello 100 degree temps in the Valley), Fire Season (those pesky Santa Ana winds), Fall Season & best of all for entertainment folks - Awards Season! The 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards airs this Sunday & it got me thinking of all the movies I WANT to see but just haven't had a chance to … [Read more...]

Frozen Fun at Disney California Adventure!

Posted on January 5, 2015 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff, Pop Culture | Tags: Disney California Adventure, Frozen Fun, Frozen Sing-Along | 12 Comments

My daughter's winter break is coming to an end & she will be going back to school later this week. I wanted to do something special so Saturday evening I said to her "Let's go see Frozen Fun at Disney California Adventure on Sunday!!" Naturally she was excited & I somehow managed to convince her to go to sleep early so that we could wake up early & get to Anaheim right when the parks opened. We got to Anaheim a little after 7:30am … [Read more...]

Ruby Ribbon Shapewear Hugs in All the Right Places

Posted on December 4, 2014 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: personal styling session, Ruby Ribbon, shapewear | 6 Comments

Everyone knows that you can’t build a house without the right foundation. The same principal applies to wearing a great outfit. Seeing my weight fluctuate over the years (especially after having a child), I’ve realized that wearing shapewear is essential for certain outfits. Now we’ve all heard of that one brand, you know, the one that rhymes with “franks.” A few years ago, I wore a shapewear item from that company & the compression was so … [Read more...]

An Insider’s Guide to Dylan Keith Salon

Posted on November 25, 2014 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: Burbank Full-Service Salon, Dylan Keith Salon, Kristin Perkins hair stylist | Leave a Comment

Recently one morning, after I popped my contact lenses in, I briefly stared in the mirror & noticed that my skin was looking a little dull. I realized that in a few days, I would be attending a party & my skin needed a little help. Fortunately I had booked a facial at Dylan Keith Salon for later in the week so that I could get that smooth, glowing skin 24 hours before the party. Dylan Keith Salon is located on pedestrian-friendly … [Read more...]

Sky High Sports: The Trampoline Place

Posted on October 13, 2014 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: Sky High Sports, trampoline dodgeball, Woodland Hills trampoline park | Leave a Comment

Every now & then, my daughter will have random days off from school. Sometimes it’s a holiday & other times it’s one of those teacher in-service days. We had one of those school vacation days about 2 weeks ago. So what’s a kid to do when you want to spend an hour or two with school friends? Rather than hosting a get-together at my house, I decided to call up my daughter’s BFF (well actually her mom) & schedule a play date at Sky High … [Read more...]
