Giving Back to the North Valley Family YMCA

This is not a sponsored post. The North Valley Family YMCA is a place that my family has been going to for many years. My husband likes to work out using the cardio machines & shooting basketballs around in the big gym. My daughter has taken ballet & tap classes from the fabulous dance instructors at the Y. Over the summer she participated in a kids cooking class, where she made delicious healthy snacks. It’s no secret to … [Read more...]

My Left Foot

Posted on February 6, 2014 | Filed Under: Reviews | Tags: Fleet Feet Sports, foot massage ball, frozen water bottle, KT Pro Tape, plantar fasciitis, Superfeet Insoles, Ultra Roller | 13 Comments

Don't let the title fool you, this is not a post on the Daniel Day-Lewis film from the late 80s, but rather it's about the pain that I've been having in my left heel since last Fall. (Ok, I know that I'm dating myself for using such an old pop culture reference, lol!) Starting in September, my heel would hurt at random moments. Then in late November, the pain started to persist everyday, usually late in the evening or right after I worked out … [Read more...]

Have you heard about Flipeez? If you have school age children, then chances are they’ve seen the commercial on TV. Flipeez are fun, stylish hats with “a super soft inner fleece lining & knit outer hat.” They come in a variety of animal shapes: Kitty, Monster, Monkey & Puppy. The best part about these hats? You squeeze the puff-ball in the tassel & watch as the animal’s tail wags or arms open! My daughter was so excited to try … [Read more...]

Fun Girls Night Out at the Nail Garden

Posted on December 4, 2013 | Filed Under: Misc, Reviews | Tags: Children's Hospital UCLA, Girls Night Out, Holiday Toy Drive, manicure, Nail Garden, nail salon, Sherman Oaks, SoCal Lady Bloggers, Studio City, Valencia | 4 Comments

After a wonderful but busy Thanksgiving holiday with family, I was ready to have a fun girls night out! This past Sunday I met up with some of my fellow SoCal Lady Bloggers at the Nail Garden in Valencia. When I first arrived, I was greeted warmly by the salon manager. I was pleasantly surprised when they offered me coffee, latte or tea - what a nice welcome! At my local salon, I'm lucky if I get a cup of water from their dispenser, … [Read more...]

Flashlight Friends – Product Review

Posted on November 5, 2013 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff, Reviews | Tags: As Seen On TV, Flashilight Friends, glow-in-the-dark, stuffed animal, unicorn | 2 Comments

My daughter loves anything that lights up or glows. When she was a baby, she had a light-up turtle that projected stars onto the ceiling of her room. As a toddler, she loved to watch her shoes light-up when she stomped her feet on the ground. Now that she’s older, her love has evolved into pillows that glow-in-the-dark & also a rather large plastic ladybug that contains glow-in-the-dark multicolored beads. Her latest obsession is … [Read more...]
