Tackle It Tuesday – Kaitlyn’s Room

June 1, 2010 By
Kaitlyns Room2

This is my first post for Tackle It Tuesday, a terrific weekly feature that started on 5 Minutes for Mom! We had no specific plans for Memorial Day, so while Chris & the kids were cleaning out the garage - meaning, breaking down all the boxes I had tossed in there over the last month to take to the recycling center - I decided to tackle Kaitlyn's room. At first I wasn't going to take a picture because it was just so embarrassing, and then I decided what the heck, it would be a good excuse to do a post for Tackle It Tuesday. Brace yourselves: Why yes, it DOES look like the Barnes & Noble kids' section and the Target toy aisle exploded all over her room!  Also, last week I asked Nathan to put the laundry away and he whined that he couldn't put Kaitlyn's clothes away because he didn't know what drawers anything went in. So I solved that problem for him: No more excuses for you, Mister :P I've always assumed that the goal of Tackle It Tuesday was to show how you … [Read more...]

Gosh, it’s fun to fly.

April 30, 2009 By

I'm home from Stouffer's! I have a pile of mail and packages to go through and I have to take Nathan to "Meet the Teacher" night at the school he'll be going to in the Fall, plus I'm so tired that I fell asleep on both flights home today. Speaking of my flights...I headed to the airport from the hotel this morning with Carmen, Lisa, Deb, and MJ.  Carmen was on a different airline, but Lisa, Deb, MJ and I were all flying from Cleveland to Detroit before splitting off for separate connecting flights home.  We missed our flight. We got to the gate and the door was closed, the agent had left, and we could see the plane out on the tarmac headed to the runway. An airport employee pointed us back towards ticketing where we had to go to rebook our flights. So there the four of us were in ticketing, MJ on the phone to Northwest, Lisa on the phone to Simon with Publicis PR, and miraculously, there were four unsold seats on the next plane going to Detroit which was in less than … [Read more...]

Hello from the Nestle Culinary Center!

April 29, 2009 By

cross-posted from MomCooks: Yesterday, Nestle flew me to Solon, Ohio to attend a day-long conference and roundtable discussion on the topic of Let's Fix Dinner. This morning we started out in the Nestle Baking Kitchen meeting with Jenny from VeryBestBaking.com and eating fresh-baked cookies (YUM). Then we moved into their Culinary Center which is like a huge kitchen with grills and a wood-fire pizza oven station and people chopping and grilling and mixing. There is Pecan-Crusted BACON, people. I am in heaven. We've only been here an hour and I've already been reminded of just how loyal I am to the Nestle brand. I've mentioned before that the only acceptable chocolate chip cookie as far as my husband is concerned is ones made with Nestle Toll House Mini Morsels. Other products made by Nestle include Carnation Condensed Milks, Libby pumpkin, Pria bars, Powerbars, and of course, CANDY. There's a little tray sitting in front of me with mini butterfingers and nestle crunch … [Read more...]
