Daytripping in the LA Fairfax District

Posted on July 18, 2013 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: Barnes & Noble, Daytrip, Fairfax, Fonuts, gluten-free, La Brea Tar Pits, LACMA, Levitated Mass, Mommy & Me, NexGen, The Grove, vegan | 2 Comments

Over the 4th of July weekend, my daughter & I had the opportunity to go into “the city” for a Mommy & Me day. My husband had to work that Saturday, so I thought – let’s explore LA! We started off with a visit to Fonuts. This is a specialty donut shop that bakes their donuts instead of the traditional frying. They have vegan & gluten-free donuts, as well as some specialty flavors like Chorizo Cheddar, Blueberry Earl Grey, Coconut … [Read more...]

My Essentials

There are certain things that I cannot live without, especially now that I’m a mom. First up – coffee! I try to limit myself to one cup of caffeine a day, whether it is coffee or a Diet Coke. Anything more & then I get too jittery. However, I need at least one drink to help me power through my day. Plus it enables me to keep up with my kid. I typically get a Starbucks skinny vanilla latte, but I’ll also go to Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf for … [Read more...]

Strong is the New Skinny

Posted on July 7, 2013 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: exercise, fitness routine, Griffith Park, gym rat, paddleboarding, The Trails Cafe, TRX | 8 Comments

Confession: I am a gym rat. There have been periods in my life where I stopped going to the gym – pregnancy, stressful job, etc. However, in general, I live for going to the gym. Let’s back up a bit… Back in high school, my fitness goals had less to do with being healthy & more to do about losing weight. Let’s just say that the scale has not been my friend since 11th grade. Lol… Since then, my position has evolved towards the goal of being … [Read more...]

Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number

Posted on July 1, 2013 | Filed Under: Fitness, Mommy Stuff | Tags: aging, birthday, goals, intentions, milestones, stand-up paddleboarding | 10 Comments

Later in the year, I will be celebrating a milestone birthday. Yep, I’m turning 40! While that may seem daunting to some, I’m actually feeling better about it than when I turned 30. There’s a R&B song titled “Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number” & in my opinion that’s a good phrase to live by. I started this summer with the intention of doing new things that I’ve never tried, sort of like a bucket list. I’ve always wanted to try … [Read more...]

Greetings and Salutations

Hello! This is my very first post to my brand new blog, “Real Mom of SFV.” The name of the blog is a spin on those “Real Housewives” shows, which I am a fan of & the “SFV” stands for San Fernando Valley, which is where I live.Recently I had lunch with a friend of mine, where we discussed the season finale of “Mad Men” along with other things. It came up in conversation that I have watched all of the “Real Housewives” shows since the franchise … [Read more...]
