So it’s cold season…and yet again I have found myself with ANOTHER cold??? Ugh! It seems like no matter how many times I wash or sanitize my hands, or how many sick people and public places I avoid, I STILL get a cold every winter. So this year I decided to try as many “cold… read on >

Forget Florida! Turn Up the Heat with Panama
Every year my husband and I fly to Florida to see my parents over the holidays. They are convinced that having a palm tree with lights on it instead of a Christmas tree is the perfect idea of paradise. But this year I wanted to do something different, something bold, something memorable! That is when… read on >
Powder Bliss In the Garden of Eden…UTAH
I am constantly looking for the best kept secret for the snow season. Every year it seems like there is a new hot spot for boarding or skiing the best undiscovered powder. However, as my family has grown I have found that this is a not so easy task to do with a family of… read on >
Mascara on a budget
Mascara……You are my cosmetic of choice. Finding a new one that plumps, lengthens and darkens my few frail lashes all in one is like finding the holy grail. Only better, if you ask me.

Last Minute Gift???

Wait, maybe my husband was telling the truth?

The MindLab Institute found that men are more likely to be woken by howling wind then by their own babies crying…… Sounds harsh, but here’s the interesting part,… read on >
Get those feet moving…..
When I asked my trainer the other day (yea, he’s a celebrity trainer…I live in L.A. its very hard to avoid) “What is the one fitness gift you swear by? I was pleasantly surprised…… I asked in the first place because these are my favorite holiday gifts to give…..something my friends and family would never buy… read on >
Building a strong foundation
Today, I had a virtual skin experience. My skin looked like something out of a magazine – smooth, flawless and without an unsightly blemish in sight. This skin revelation is all thanks to the man who changed my make-up routine forever Michael Talley, the CosMedic Retail Educator for the revolutionary Cover FX make-up brand. He… read on >
A break from leftovers
In the mood for something seasonal yet not so Thanksvigingy? I found and tested this great filet mignon with blackberries recipe courtesy of the Food Network’s Dean Brothers. For me, this dish really bring out the rich-earthy flavors of Autumn without having any of the traditional Thanksgiving spices and flavors we typically associate this time of year… read on >
