Posted on January 13, 2015 | Filed Under: Local Events | Tags: Canoga Park computer camp, free community events, Microsoft Store, YouthSpark Camps | Leave a Comment

There has been so much talk in the last year or so among educators about getting kids excited & involved in STEM (science, technology, engineering & mathematics). I recently found out about a fun, free Winter Camp that is hosted by the Microsoft Store at Westfield Topanga in Canoga Park. During these tutorial sessions, your child can learn how to create, code, design & develop on Microsoft computers. Spread over two days, these … [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...]

#CheatClean with New S’mores Quest Bar!

Posted on January 7, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: Quest Bar, Quest Nutrition, s'mores protein bar | 5 Comments

In my opinion, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. If I don't have something to eat in the morning, then my energy is low & I have a hard time concentrating on the task at hand because I'm too busy daydreaming of what I will eat for lunch. There are times when I have to grab something quick in the morning & get on the road ASAP. It is during those times that my go-to food of choice is a protein bar. For instance, this past … [Read more...]

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...]

Ham & Cheese Breakfast Strata

Posted on December 30, 2014 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: egg casserole, ham & cheese strata, make-ahead breakfast dish | 4 Comments

At our home, breakfast on Christmas morning is always filled with excitement & joy. After checking our stockings by the fireplace, opening our presents that are under the tree & taking photos of our daughter, it’s usually a mad dash for me or my husband to make some pancakes, eggs & other assorted breakfast items. So this year I decided to change it up a bit & make an egg casserole dish ahead of time that can be popped into the … [Read more...]
