Organizing is simply as means to an end
Yes, I admit it: I’ve gone mad! This running thing has taken over and I’m actually setting a goal of running a Half Marathon this year. My journey started in January. My goal was to “do” (whatever that meant…maybe run/walk/cry at some point) the Cooper River Bridge Run, a 10K. The commitment was easy because [...]
One of the reasons I love to travel is the opportunity to meet people who I would never run into otherwise. Recently, I completed a 10-city media tour that had me bouncing in and out of different airports and time zones. I always find travel exhilarating, but there are those times when exhaustion and a bit [...]
Last night, I had the pleasure of attending an event in “the city” (New York). The Mommybites Summit, touted “The Ultimate Moms’ Nigh Out” was held at the Faculty House at Columbia University. In all my years of living in NJ, I had never been to that part of the city. When I exited the [...]
The Royal Wedding of William and Kate (The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge) was amazing. It went off without a hitch and in spite of two billion in attendance, it felt very intimate. Watching Will was like watching Princess Diana in many ways. Not only does he look a lot like his mother, he also [...]
Airline travel ain’t what it used to be! First, there’s basically no more “free” food, unless you want to consider a tiny bag of peanuts a sufficient snack. And now that most airlines are charging for checked bags, lightening your load is a good idea. There is a way to get around these little annoyances, [...]
We got the Pack! Just three days after being asked to participate in the “Where the Fack is My Pack” Experiment, the Pack arrived on our doorstep. Cody, our Pug, was immediately curious and kept sniffing the box as I opened it, then stood by patiently as I took a photograph. The Pack came to [...]
For many, the word “sushi” alone conjures up all sorts of weird feelings and facial expressions. I happen to be in the group of people who adores sushi. It wasn’t an immediate love affair, by any means. One of my best male friends who I’ve known for, gosh 26 years now, took me for sushi about 24 [...]
Start ‘em while their young! “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” – Henry Miller My love of travel started when my mom put me on a plane to Maine from New Jersey to spend the summer with my cousins. I was nine and it was the mid-70s. Airline [...]
On my recent media tour, my fourth stop was California’s capital city, Sacramento. I had the pleasure of staying at The Citizen Hotel with a gorgeous view of the capital building. By the time I reached my room, I had already given the establishment a nick name: The Hotel with a Sense of Humor. On [...]
