SUSTA Natural Sweetener Review and Giveaway

October 13, 2010

I’m addicted to sugar, I can’t make through a day without something sweet, so I was happy to try out SUSTA, a new natural, low-calorie sweetener. I avoid sweeteners that contain aspartame or other artificial ingredients, so sugar it is for this sweet tooth! Since I drink a lot of tea and coffee, that can [...]

Not Me! Monday — Black Eye and Clouds

April 12, 2010

Landon did not get his first black eye just right after I yelled at him: “Stop running!” and my brother-in-law yelled at me: “Would you stop yelling? He’s fine.” Second later Landon ran around the corner after his cousin James and right into the back of a chair. I saw it happen and thought he [...]

Not Me! Monday — Sickness and Health

March 15, 2010

I did not forget that it’s Not Me! Monday today. Last night I was almost ready to write the post early, but then Landon woke up at 11 p.m., played a little, and threw up all over Don (“Sweety! Can you come here?!”). I don’t know what it was, and this is the first time [...]

Not Me! Monday — Playing at Midnight

February 8, 2010

Hmm, time for Not Me! Monday. You want honesty? Here you go: My next New York City Moms blog article was not overdue. I finally finished it this morning and it’s in the cue. I’ll let you know when it gets published. It’s called “Natural Birth, Duggar Style.” I do not still owe someone a [...]

Things have been kind of rough . . .

February 7, 2010

Things have been kind of rough around here. Not so much for me — for Don. Four months ago he suddenly was in pain all over his body, and we haven’t found a cause or cure yet. Since the pain is most severe at night, he hasn’t had a decent night of sleep since this [...]

Not Me! Monday — Blue Cupcakes and Snow

January 4, 2010

I did not bake these unhealthy cupcakes with Landon and his cousins the other day. I would never feed my child refined sugar, bleached flour, hydrogenated oil, a stick of butter, and blue #1. Just ignore the cute pictures and the video that appeared here a few days ago. That was not me who posted [...]

Recipe: Streusel Poppy Seed Cake — German Mohnkuchen

January 2, 2010

It’s been two weeks that I mentioned I made this: I still owe you the recipe, so here it is. I received the original recipe from my friend Stephanie, who got it from The MuffinTin Post. Because I only bought one cup of poppy seeds, I cut the dough ingredients in half, which was plenty [...]

Not So Wordless Wednesday

December 31, 2009

Is it Wednesday? I had to check, but yes, it apparently is. I have been so frazzled the last few days because I haven’t been getting enough sleep. I worked many long nights, but the editing project I have been working on for over a month is finally sent off. Yay! And as is usually [...]

Mommy Bloggers Luncheon in New York City

November 22, 2009

I get invited to a lot of blogging-related events, and even though I say no to most of them because I am either not interested or don’t have the time to be away from home for that long, I was invited to Breathe Life In and attended a luncheon by Vicks the other day. Vicks [...]

A Rainy Day Doesn’t Rain on Our Parade

October 25, 2009

A few days ago I had my car in the garage, again, to finally fix that leak that dumps a lot of water in my car when it rains. I had to kill three hours and spent two at Dunkin’ Donuts… I was ready to go for seconds. I was so good, I just had [...]

BlogHer Let’s Bloggers Opt Out of Formula and Bottle Ads

October 3, 2009

Today, I was approached by Annie, another breastfeeding supporter who blogs at PhD in Parenting, about problems she had with some of the BlogHer ads that were running on her blog. As someone who believes strongly in the WHO International Code of Marketing of Breast-Milk Substitutes, she did not want ads for formula or bottles [...]

Thank You Cards for Breastfeeding Moms

September 17, 2009

I woke up after falling asleep with Landon and here I am at midnight printing out “Thank You Notes” for breastfeeding moms. I just stumbled upon this site, Militant Breastfeeding Cult, and although I am so not a “cult” person, I was intreagued by the words “militant breastfeeding.” I guess that is me by now [...]

Who Helped You Learn How to Breastfeed?

August 29, 2009

Breastfeeding definitely needs to be learned, it doesn’t come easy to most women. It took me two sleepless, painful weeks and visits to two lactation specialists to get the hang of it. The first one was useless, the second a godsend. I credit Corky Harvey (MS, RN, IBCLC) for my breastfeeding success and the fact [...]
