Simple Steps…Spring Greening
Published on Monday, April 12, 2010 by caryn Once again, I've teamed up with Aller-Ease and The Motherhood for a special seasonal cleaning series. Spring is the season when my allergies kick up a notch (more so than any other time of the year). Those pretty flowers that you see blooming in your backyard only do so because of pollen. Unfortunately, I've been sneezing like crazy! Do you ever feel like you... Read More » -

Fresh Express’ Online Leaf Locator (Giv...
Published on Monday, April 12, 2010 by caryn I could eat salad every day and never tire of it, granted it includes fruits, nuts, and fancy cheeses. With two small children and a tightly packed schedule, I don't have time to pull a head of lettuce apart to make a salad. And the fact is, I've always preferred bagged salad over a head of lettuce. It makes it so much easier to toss in all of my "extras" in jus... Read More » -

Simple Steps…Plant a Tree…Or a Ga...
Published on Saturday, April 10, 2010 by caryn My son is still too young to understand concepts like global warming. So most of the eco-education I do is based on modeling and hands-on learning. I want him to view things like recycling as a normal part of everyday life. I want him to grow up with a reverence for our environment and it's precious resources. We've planted flowers in the past, but he was too... Read More » -

I Love The Way…
Published on Friday, April 9, 2010 by caryn You scoot to snuggle with me at night...despite the fact that I put you on your back to sleep between daddy and I. You turn over on to your belly to sleep (just like your brother...and your mommy like to sleep). You can be asleep peacefully next to me one minute and bright-eyed the next, the moment I wake up. You squeal every morning for about 15 minutes in s... Read More » -

Private Chefs of Beverly Hills
Published on Friday, April 9, 2010 by caryn My husband and I tend to be foodies, only in that we like really good food. My husband does a majority of the cooking and both of us are always looking for new, interesting recipes with a bit of flare. Most nights, after the kidlets are in bed (and American Idol or Ugly Betty are not on), we watch a variety of shows on the Food Network. Everything from Iron Chef... Read More » -

Simple Steps…Recycle
Published on Friday, April 9, 2010 by caryn "Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without." Proverb My husband and I live in a community that encourages and makes it relatively easy to recycle. We have a "recycle" bin that gets taken out every week along with the trash bins. All I really need to do is sort the trash into that which is and isn't recyclable (paper, plastic, cardboard). I have to s... Read More » -

Disney’s Food & Wine Festival
Published on Wednesday, April 7, 2010 by caryn Last year, around this time, I was pregnant...and sick, sick, sick! I had aspired to take my husband to Disney's California Adventure Park to experience their Food & Wine Festival, but never actually made it. This year, I am definitely planning on leaving the kidlets with my parents for a couple's day out! This is the fifth annual Food & Wine Festival... Read More » -

Bat (Rain) Gear!
Published on Wednesday, April 7, 2010 by caryn It's days like Monday that remind me it's still rainy season! We don't get a ton of rain in Southern California, but when we do, it's like we don't know what to do with ourselves. For many states, going out in the rain is normal. They just don their rain gear and do what they need to do! For our rainy days, we've outfitted my son in some very cool Batman... Read More » -
