As many of you experienced a few weeks ago, I’m a bit obsessed with giving back this season. (I’m convinced it’s the mom-compassion thing that’s doing it. Or it could be the warm-and-fuzzy vibe at work, Hallmark’s “Home & Family.”) Through all the shopping and decorating and getting-together-with-friends before everyone disappears for their own family…

FAST FOOD: A sneaky holiday dessert tip.
For me, Holidays = Dessert. No holding back. No guilt. No excuses. And if you’re also like me, you might find that holiday-time translates into constantly craving some kind of fancy dessert for your own fridge, offering to take a fabulous dessert to a friend’s party or just plain find yourself obligated to blow your…
FOCUSED: Enjoy the MOMents.
It’s Thankful week… Recently I made an on-air declaration (on Home & Family) about how I’ve been making an extra effort this past year to be thankful and enjoy the smaller moments that pop up in life. The little things. As in, the ‘Mom Moments’ (MOMents) of still being woken up in the middle of…
