My first Brandcation was Brandcation Pigeon Forge, Tennessee in October, 2011. I was a very last minute attendee and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. I knew Jen from Life with Levi on an internet-personal level. I knew that Mickey from A Helicopter Mom was going to be there and that I had…

Fruity Kombucha Jello Bites
Hey, all! I feel SO blessed to have Jackie from The Paleo Mama guest posting today.

Recalls Plus – Recall Information at Your fingertips
Recalls! The bane of every concerned parent’s consumeristic existence. That IS a word, right?

11 Years Changed My Life
12 years ago I didn’t think I wanted children. I was content to be without kids for a really, really long time. I was 19, for goodness sake! (Yes, that makes me 31 – good job on the math). I wanted to finish school, enjoy going to parties with my friends, and enjoy LIFE. I…
