Once upon a time, and not too long ago, on any given weekend night my husband and I would surely be out and about in New York City at a party, a nightclub, an event, or a bar. This was our life. We were hands-down the life of every party, and up till the crack-of-dawn with the best of the Partiers.
Of course, this was before our Son, Miles Storm was born and we became parents – things change so fast once that happens doesn’t it?
If you want a Mom out of her bed on a Saturday morning to dress, bundle, and deliver a toddler to the babysitter you better have a great reason. And boy did Benefit Cosmetics have one last weekend! Having the opportunity to hang out at a beauty salon with a free makeover is the siren song of a new Mom. Well, it is for this one. I don’t have time to primp any more, and when I do it is with the same old products.
Vegan – somebody not eating animal products: somebody who does not eat meat, fish, dairy products, or eggs.
Vegetarian – somebody not eating meat or fish: somebody who eats vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds, and usually eggs and dairy products, but not meat or fish
Being a vegan/vegetarian during the holidays can be a great time to introduce your friends and family into how wonderfully rich and diverse and yet similar meat-free foods can be to the “mainstream” meals, but tread carefully my friend it can be a touchy subject!

Two weeks ago marked a milestone in my relationship with my toddler Son. After 26 months since Miles Storm was born, back in September of 2010, WE have finally stopped breastfeeding!
I was beginning to wonder if this day would ever come, and surely my husband made a ton of jokes, that I would be one of those Mums who would be breastfeeding until he was at least 6 years old. Ha Ha – really funny Babes!
Something magical happened in New York City last night – right bang smack in the middle of a snow blizzard – my favorite children’s store, The Land of Nod, opened as a Pop-Up in SOHO downtown Manhattan.
And, I am beyond excited!
I am fortunate to have been invited to the official opening, and I have to tell you it was crazy out. It was a full-blown freezing cold blizzard but that did not stop me. I was going to get there no matter what!
