Casual Friday with Mir---because some days are made for wearing your jeans and surfing the blogs.
Goooood morning! My family and I are off on a brief jaunt, today, so that we can say we did something fun before summer's over. I don't know...
This past weekend I went to the Blogher conference in San Francisco. This year was a little different for me than past years. For the first time, I wasn't going to just hang out and meet new people. I was going to speak on a panel about...
I'm lucky enough this week to be visiting a place where there is a beach not too far away. A beach that's not too crowded, not too hot, and, well, it's a BEACH. And I've been finding time to take walks there, meditate there, or simply watch...
Your site doesn’t show that you have a good sense of what women want -- where is all the celebrity content and diet tips?
When I read that on Nataly's great post about the upside of being a working mom, I cringed. Sure, some women want...
Today I am heading out of the office to an all day team building event. The VP of our organization invited the entire project team to her home for a day of kayaking on the Russian River. We’ve all been working incredibly hard on this...
This past week at BlogHer I had the pleasure of meeting Stephanie who writes the blog, A Year of Crockpotting. January of this year she made a resolution for the new year to use her crockpot every day for the entire year. She recently...

Considering I'm traveling this week for the annual Blogher conference, I can't think of a better time to chat about laptop bags.
Ahhh, the laptop bag - finding the perfect one can be quite daunting, right?
It seems more and more women...
Awwww yeah. Here comes the weekend. And likely another Saturday (and possibly Sunday) filled with our daughter's friend's birthday parties. And for a sugar-holic like me, I cannot wait for the cake and ice cream. (My mouth is watering just...
