Eye-Fi…It’s Wi-Fi…For Your ...
Published on Wednesday, June 1, 2011 by caryn About a year ago, I really started pursuing my passion for photography. I invested in an SLR camera (and some other equipment), read some books, and gleaned wisdom at conferences and informally through photographers I know and admire. And then I did what is probably the most important part of learning to do something...I practiced...a lot. In fact, I'm still pract... Read More » -

We still have several more weeks of winter (sigh!) and much of the country has been blanketed with snow.

{Simply} Divine Desserts
Published on Thursday, February 11, 2010 by caryn Earlier this week, I was invited to attend a Social Media Party at Divine Desserts, a local cupcake shop in our area. From my above tweet, you can see how excited I was. For some unknown reason, this gem of a cupcake shop was sitting right here in my community and I didn't even know it. Weird lighting... Lovin' the Kitchen Aid Mixers! Divine Des... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Baking With McCormick
Published on Wednesday, February 10, 2010 by caryn One of my favorite things to do is bake. My husband always encourages me to go bake when I'm feeling stressed. I like using my creativity to make something that looks and tastes good. And my son is quickly becoming the little baker himself. He is my right hand when it comes to making pancakes, muffins, scones, and cupcakes. Today, my son and I made "Love Bu... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Gift Idea: New Sweethe...
Published on Wednesday, February 10, 2010 by caryn I remember giving and getting Sweethearts Candies for Valentine's Day as a child. Now, I'm not one to advocate giving candy to children, but every now and then I allow it with my son (It doesn't help that I have a sweet tooth). If you grew up with them, like I did, then you're familiar with their fun love-themed sayings. I didn't know this, but for the last 145 y... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For the Choc...
Published on Monday, February 8, 2010 by caryn I couldn't finish my Valentine's Day gift ideas without telling you about my favorite kind of candy...chocolate! If you can believe it (I can't believe I'm admitting this), a day doesn't go by that I don't eat chocolate in some form. Hot chocolate, cold chocolate, chocolate chips, and dark chocolate are my favorite sources...but anything chocolate will suffice. ... Read More » -

Published on Monday, February 8, 2010 by caryn I always thought the phrase went something like this: "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." In all honesty, if my husband didn't cook, I don't think he'd have made it into MY heart! (I'm joking...sort of!). When my husband and I were dating, he would cook me these amazing meals. And I have to say that the time and effort he spent on those meals re... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Children...
Published on Saturday, February 6, 2010 by caryn The other day, my son asked me about Valentine's Day. He's two...and a half. And I started thinking about this day that we celebrate year after year. While I'm not entirely convinced that we need a special day to show our loved ones that we love them (since we should do this every day), it is a holiday that I look forward to every single year. The romantic mov... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Gift Idea: Photo Gifts...
Published on Thursday, February 4, 2010 by caryn Photos are the best way to display the most important events and memories in our lives. That's why our home is adorned with pictures from our time spent traveling, our history as a couple, and our gorgeous children. We live in a time where film is almost obsolete. I have thousands of pictures just sitting on my computer's hard drive...to be seen by no one. An... Read More » -

Before I had children, I spent time and resources on products designed to help make me look and feel good. Becoming a mom, as wonderful as it is, results in sacrifices.

Valentine’s Day Gift Idea: Cozy Slipper...
Published on Friday, January 29, 2010 by caryn I don't know about you, but I wear my slippers outside of the house. I wear them to get the mail...I wear them to walk my son over to our community playground...I wear them in the garage to do the laundry...and I wear them until they're worn out. Most slippers don't have enough support or traction on them to be worn outside, since that's not what they're designed ... Read More » -

Published on Friday, January 29, 2010 by caryn As a mom of two little ones, it's difficult to get time for myself. And if I don't plan time with my husband, days can go by where we get so absorbed in playing, cooking, cleaning, working and all the other day-to-day activities that we've failed to connect. I've been given a piece of advice that I have tried to hold onto, particularly now that we have two little ... Read More » -
