Published on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 by caryn This past month has been filled with adventure, travel, and a whole lot of firsts. When I found out our ambassador team would be heading to the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, California, I was kind of in shock. To actually visit the place where future US Olympic athletes train was just beyond what I could comprehend. I'll have an entire post dedicate... Read More » -

iCapture: Epcot at Walt Disney World Resort
Published on Saturday, April 14, 2012 by caryn Of all the parks at Walt Disney World, Epcot is the most unique, in my opinion. Visually the park is magnificent and each country is represented authentically. I'd love to wake up before dawn one day and photograph the park empty because of how rich and vibrant it is. I'm currently in Orlando, and since we had a "free" day today at the parks, I spent quite a bi... Read More » -

Published on Thursday, March 15, 2012 by caryn One of my daily struggles as a mom to a child that suffers from food allergies is creating easy, palatable dishes that my son will actually eat. Because he was diagnosed when he was around 2, he still remembers a time when he could eat foods like pizza and macaroni and cheese. While I work very hard to ensure my children are eating wholesome foods, I do allow them... Read More » -

iCapture: Mickey’s Toontown
Published on Friday, March 9, 2012 by caryn It seems like it's been for-ever since I've written an iCapture post. Yesterday, we spent a lovely day with some friends at The Disneyland Resort. Because we're annual passholders, we don't often spend an entire day at the resort so yesterday was a treat! One of our favorite areas of the park is Mickey's Toontown, but we don't get over there enough. The"intera... Read More » -

Published on Saturday, January 21, 2012 by caryn I probably shouldn't admit that while I'm writing this post, I'm finishing the last few bites of an Artie Lange cupcake from Crumbs Bake Shop...the remnants of my birthday celebration. I'll have to work out at least double time this week to counter the butter, chocolate, and cream cheese that make this cupcake so decadent. And speaking of working out, it's the new y...

The film is phenomenal and I can't wait to share details a... Read More » -

The Ins and Outs of Living With Food Allergie...
Published on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 by caryn It was 8:00 and we'd just finished dinner and story time. Daddy was on his way upstairs with the kids for their bedtime routine and I was headed off to the kitchen to start baking. You may not know this about me, but I find baking incredibly relaxing. It's what I do to unwind, relax, and regroup. Alone. Just thirty minutes prior, I had set butter out on the cou... Read More » -

Published on Friday, December 9, 2011 by caryn As for New York City, it is a place apart. There is not its match in any other country in the world. Pearl S.
