I haven’t really done much of a BlogHer Conference recap this year, because there was just so much to take in from all directions, I don’t even really know where to start. I mean, the freaking POTUS spoke, and also Martha Stewart, and there were just SO FREAKING MANY PEOPLE THERE. Over 5000 women. That’s INSANE, right? You’d think the… Read more →

REI, Beach Cabanas, and NOT Glamping.
Me and Dee – August 2010 So when REI and BlogHer offered me the opportunity to go on a mini REI shopping spree in preparation for our family’s beach camp-out at the end of the summer, I jumped at the chance.

Who doesn’t love free stuff?
Today is my baby shower – which I couldn’t be more excited for (even though I haven’t a thing to wear…if I could run around naked for the next month, I swear I would…but I won’t, because I don’t take pleasure in terrifying small children, and I don’t want to have to tell my daughter about the time Mommy got… Read more →
