Visit Whirlpool on Facebook – I’m a featured mom!

by barb December 28, 2012

Call me crazy but ever since the beginning of August 2011, when I received my Whirlpool Frontload Duet Washer & Dryer, I haven’t complained once about having to do laundry. In fact, I actually look forward to the days when this “chore” must be done. But to be totally honest, I don’t even consider laundry [...]

#KotexMom – It was so much fun being a part of the group

by barb November 20, 2012

Getting your period, yeah…not the world’s easiest conversation to have with your daughters…especially when you still look at them as babies.

This summer ended up being one of the better summers we’ve experienced. John and I were actually able to take some time away from work to take the kids to visit family, the beach, a water park, and a few downtown summer festivals. And needless to say, not one of us – thanks to Coppertone [...]

Share a Story and Share the Love [@CesarCuisine]

by barb November 6, 2012

I haven’t been a dog owner for long, but we’ve been gifted with his presence long enough to know that life just wouldn’t be the same without Jäger. Now mind you, Jäger is not the gentlest of souls (still teaching him to stop biting) but he makes us laugh, smile and spend more quality time [...]

Let’s Talk Floor & Decor

by barb November 5, 2012

John and I are now in the market of buying our first home. It’s a time I’ve been waiting for, for a very long time. The girls can’t wait for a backyard and I can’t wait for a house to call my own. John and I have decided to buy a nice ‘fixer-upper’; one that [...]

by barb October 8, 2012

Sweetie is my neighbor’s dog…the cutest, and feistiest, of poodles I’ve ever known. She is given the world…in love – care and food – by her owner, Mrs. Melba (an 86 year old woman that puts my energy to shame). J Sweetie has been a Cesar Cuisine Fan since she started eating solid foods; many [...]

Being A #KotexMom has been Awesome

by barb September 26, 2012

Getting your period- it’s actually the worst part about being a girl…but luckily it’s not the only thing. Girls get to wear makeup, shop for shoes and wear the prettiest outfits. I’ve been discussing the “P” word with Patience and Piper, for a few months now, and though they’re not excited about the day this [...]

by barb September 24, 2012

I did. I survived. And I liked! I just completed my Skype only 7-day Challenge. I have to admit though – I had a tough time in the beginning (hints the reason for my “first” attempt on September 2). It was a little challenging at first (forgetting to use Skype instead of the norm) but [...]

My Life – Simplified

by barb September 22, 2012

My to-do list has grown substantially, especially with a new pup in the house. It seems like there’s more laundry to be had, more cleaning to be done and more pressure on me in order to keep up with it all. I’m just thankful to have two great dishwashers (Patience and Piper) and an amazing [...]
