Ibiza Convertible Flight Tote by Hayden-Harnett

I love a great bag. And a great travel bag? I’m so there. So when Mom Select sent me this Ibiza Flight Tote last week I was pretty excited.
In the past week I’ve gone from adoring this bag, to wondering if it would work for me, and back to really, really liking [...]

Win a Wisconsin Dells Vacation!

Wisconsin Dells is a huge vacation destination if you live in the Midwest! Some members of my family went last year & loved it. You can read my sister’s account of their trip here. I have fond memories of my trip in the late 90’s. It’s just fun.

Fun Free iPod Touch/iPhone App

I got an iPod Touch a couple of months ago. I love it! Funnily enough I have no music on it. I also don’t have any videos or movies. What I do have are some great apps- most of them free!

My Favorite Things: Moleskine City Notebooks

I love a good notebook. Though I claim to be a geek of all things “techy” there is really nothing better to me than paper and a pen. So when I found the Moleskine City Notebook for Boston I was enthralled. I now had a great book to note our explorations, thoughts [...]

Plymouth, Massachusetts: History Comes Alive

Thankfully the Saturday we chose [...]
