Where Unique, Chic and Organized Meet
This story is not an easy one to tell, but there is a happy ending because Fresh & Easy saved the day with their affordable shopping. The story begins on a weekend where we started out with little food in the house, but unfortunately my husband ("R") and I were broke. Yes, broke! However, I had just received my $50 gift card for Fresh & Easy to do some shopping. I told R that we … [Read more...]
I remember when I was younger my parents buying boxed wine, and it was not good. They bought it to make wine spritzers and I wondered what they were buying it for if it wasn't "good". If only they had Black Box Wines then. When my Black Box Wines showed up my husband gave me the "are you kidding look?" Then he tried it and it was all over. Those boxed wine stereotypes have been broken with their … [Read more...]

Next week is Cinco de Mayo. I love Cinco de Mayo because the decorations are so festive, and the food is so delicious. The best part is that I have an excuse to drink Margaritas all day long. This year I had the opportunity to try the Sauza-rita featuring Sauza Tequila. As someone who grew up in Southern California [and yes I speak Spanish fluently], Cinco de Mayo is something that we … [Read more...]
I may be organized in many many ways, but meal planning I cannot seem to get my head wrapped around. I've tried method after method after method. I think my hatred of cooking may have something to do with it. I can cook, and I'm good at it, but don't like doing it. It doesn't take me to the zen place that so many claim to go, so of course meal planning just seemed like a chore. All of this stopped … [Read more...]
On a recent Saturday afternoon I got in my car with my good friends Romy and Kim and we drove just under 2 hours south to Carlsbad, CA to check out the brand new Luxe Lounge at the Spa in La Costa Resort & Spa. It's almost 2 years ago that I first discovered the La Costa Resort & Spa, but they just opened up the Luxe Lounge in the spa. So let me tell you about the Luxe Lounge at the Spa … [Read more...]
We're about to embark on teaching our kids the art of financial strategy, and I can thank Virtual Piggy for helping me hammer this home for my kids. As an on-line allowance, wish list and Virtual Piggy bank my children are heading into 2013 learning to manage their finances. I finally finished creating our chore/behavior chart system that will revolve around credits. For every 20 credits … [Read more...]
You may recall that I posted about getting to test out an Acura ILX for a week. I had such a blast with the car, and I have to tell you that I didn't even go through a whole tank of gas in that week. Yes, you read correctly less than 1 tank of gas, and I even took a little road trip with my husband. That's the great part about having the Acura ILX Hybrid. In Los Angeles NOTHING is 5 … [Read more...]
I grew up in a house of car lovers. That's an understatement to be honest. My older brother always had car posters on his walls, and we had every car magazine show up at our house regularly, so it rubbed off on me, and I love cars too. I love sitting in a new car. I love test driving new cars. I really find myself to be a little bit of a new car snob. So, imagine when I was asked to spend a week … [Read more...]

By now everywhere you turn you see a BlogHer '12 wrap up. I thought I wasn't going to do one. To be honest I thought there would be so many out there mine would get lost. I thought I'd take the fashion approach and tell you the great and not-so-great of BlogHer '12. You may be asking why even discuss my fashion, because on Tuesday night I went to Sears with my $200 GC for winning first prize in … [Read more...]
With all of the travel and moving around we are all doing these days packing snacks and food is a necessity. If you're like me and have children having snacks and food for them is the key to ever lasting happiness. When I received the eBags Crew Cooler II in Blue Yonder I was so impressed with how compact it was. It seemed that eBags thought of everything when it comes to traveling with food. … [Read more...]
