I had the opportunity to work with Activia on their new Selects product line. I love that they have come out with a Greek yogurt. Being of Greek nationality, most of our dinners are Greek, and yogurt is a very prominent ingredient in many of them. If you have been following my blog for a while, then you know that I make my delicious tzatsiki at least twice a week (in large batches so it lasts a few days) and Greek yogurt is the main character in ...

Beautiful Fall Flowers from Teleflora
It is no wonder why I decided to get married in the fall - I LOVE fall! From the colors of the leaves changing to the pleasant weather, there is nothing I don't love about the fall season. For my wedding arrangements, I chose an assortment of fall flowers in colors of creme and orange to stand out. For the centerpieces, I decided to go with short square vases with floating flowers on each side of a larger short square vase which had a fun yet ...
Bloom Maternity Review and Giveaway
When I was pregnant I didn't want to spend a lot of money on an entire new wardrobe that I would wear for only a few months. I was able to get away with my pre-pregnancy clothes for most of my pregnancy, since I was at my largest in the summer months when I lounged in flowy dresses. Bloom Maternity must have heard my gripes about maternity clothes when they came out with their maternity line. With options that you can wear throughout your ...
Cover Me Strap Review
I always say that the best baby products are created by moms who had a need that was not fulfilled, so they created the perfect product that would work for them. This is so true for the Cover Me Strap. When I nursed my daughter, I did not have a fancy nursing cover and thought that a simple receiving blanket would do the trick. I never took into consideration that my infant would decide to pull the receiving blanket off, or at a certain ...
MAM Baby Review
Before your baby is born, it is not uncommon for you, as a new mom, to be on information overload about caring for your newborn. Walking into the baby store can be daunting at first – which bottles do I buy? Do I want to introduce a pacifier? What kind of diapers will I use? I heard of MAM products and I even tried their pacifiers on my daughter when she was an infant. It seemed that EVERYONE was using MAM pacifiers and their bright packaging ...

Best strategies for de-cluttering and organizing toys #WallTracks
The amount of clutter that is accumulated once you have a child is insane! From clothes to gear to toys, there is just not enough room to fit everything! When my daughter was about a year old, I got her a toy chest for the living room. Once it was full, no more toys were allowed in there. If she wanted a new toy, an old toy would have to be retired to the playroom. I tried to leave the living room decluttered as much as possible - so that we are ...
