Out with the old and in with the new. Are you watching ‘The Marriage Ref’? Oh reality programming…
This couple is arguing because each is holding onto something dear from a previous relationship. One won’t throw away her dead husband’s prosthetic leg while the other doesn’t see how owning the leather couch he used to have sex with his ex on is a big deal. Will Larry David, Ricky Gervais and Madonna have enough insight to correct the issue? Are you riding this crazy train?
In the morning, there isn’t a lot of time to get breakfast ready. Yes, I wish I was that mom that woke up an hour earlier than the rest of the house and made fluffy pancakes with freshly squeezed orange juice, but I don’t know that woman and I don’t think I ever will.
I wake up and I get to work. There’s only so much time to get the kids ready and then I have to start writing for my three websites. It’s rough. So I need something quick and easy. Cereal usually works but 5 months straight of Chex can get a bit boring.
Well I’m tipping my hat to Bear Naked and Kashi GoLean granola bars. They give me the taste I want, the nutrients I need and put no stress on my schedule. I make my tea, grab a bar and get to business.
Bear Naked bars come in three flavors: Fruit + Nut, Chocolaty Chery, and Tropical Fruit. These gems are have NO artificial flavors, cholesterol, hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup and preservatives. You CANNOT beat that.
Kashi GoLean Crunchy bars are filled with yummy goodness as well. Just LISTEN to the different flavors they come in: Chocolate Almond, Chocolate Caramel, Chocolate Peanut, Chocolate Pretzel and Chocolate Coffee Cake. Unbelievable!
Don’t limit these treats to the early morning. You can very easily throw these in your purse and eat them as a snack while on the go. My children enjoy munching on them while we run around as a family – which makes it easier for me to get my errands done.
Have you tried either brand? Which is your favorite flavor?

I am SO excited about this! Too bad my children are out of the bottle phase. While I can’t take advantage of the Pish Posh Organzier, YOU CAN.
Did you ever just want to run out of the house with a bottle, a diaper and a few wipes? You can’t really put all of that in your purse because what if the bottle leaked (and we know it always does). So what happens – you end up taking a HUGE diaper bag for just a few items.
Well, no longer.
The Pish Posh Organizer is a lighweight bag with multipockets inside and out to hold all your baby essentials – and it’s waterproof lined. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO if the bottle spills inside the Organizer, it doesn’t get all over your favorite bag.
Want to do a quick change of accessories going from morning to night? No problem. The Pish Posh easily transports baby essentials from one purse to another. LOVE IT!

Man. If only I had direct access to a designer that I know and love who could tell me what’s hot this season without always trying to push their line down my throat.
Oh wait. It’s possible!!

Liz Lange and her sister Jane Wagman just launched ‘Shopafrolic‘, a website dedicated to sharing their passion for clothing, accessories and beauty products. Each day the sisters post their absolute must have picks for their fans to check out. Sometimes they agree with one another and sometimes the claws come out. How fun is that!
This isn’t some secret affiliate marketing ploy either. It’s literally all about loving fashion and wanting to connect with their fans.
I had the chance to interview Liz and Jane while attending a Martha Stewart taping (see video here) and the girls say they constantly get asked for fashion advice while running their daily errands. It’s obviously impossible to reach EVERY woman who has a question and that’s why ‘Shopafrolic’ was born.
The site is for every woman. It covers highs and lows and shows you how to combine the two.
There’s even a Fashion Tip section that they constantly update. Here are a few of their suggestions:
