Sustainably Chic Reusable Bags by MY ECO {And a Special Discount!}

This post contains affiliate links. I’m quite the sight at a grocery store. If I’m not negotiating with my toddler son to “please get in the cart,” I’m bribing him with bite-size bakery cookies to “be a good boy while Mommy shops.” And then, of course, there is the mish-mash of reusable bags that I […]

Gourmet Fare from Everywhere: St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital 7th Annual Cooking for Kids Event

When the email hit my inbox inviting me to attend the St. Joseph Children’s Hospital Cooking for Kids Event, I immediately replied “YES.” That’s because this is one of the crème de la crème events appealing to the New Jersey foodie community – and for such an AMAZING cause. For the past seven years, St. […]

Life A La Mode: On the Passing of My Mom

They say that March goes in like a lion and out like a lamb. I’m in the thick of the lion’s roar right now, fresh from losing my mother to a rare and aggressive colon cancer that swiftly and unapologetically took over her body. After her official diagnosis on Christmas Eve, my beautiful, feisty, smart […]
