I'm a mom of three, so you know I've seen it all. One of the funniest parenting experiences I have had was the pleasure of introducing my babies to solid foods. 

New parents sometimes ask me: "How do you know when your baby is ready for solid foods?" Trust me, you just know. Babies go from oblivious, cooing non-participants to eagle-eyed gluttons who will snatch greedily at your fork...

You gals know, I like me some food. I love to eat. I have an insatiable appetite and I am not picky. One of my favourite things? Snacking. Nothing like having a sack of chips right beside me while I work. I've recently become addicted to Kellogg's Special K Cracker Chips and yup, the box was pretty much empty by the end of the day. 

So, since I am currently out of snacks, I thought it an...

I am not exactly what you might call "sporty" or "athletic" or "able to lift something", though I do appreciate the Olympic season. While the summer Olympics are great for getting your fill of eye candy (hello men's diving), I actually prefer the winter Olympics. There is something about being oh-so-cozy indoors watching someone ski while the snow rages that makes me feel good about life. In the...

If part of your New Years' resolution was to eat healthier, then you can appreciate just how hard it is to keep this up. Staying away from temptation is one of the hardest things I've personally had to do. I mean, just going by that McDs and the smells wafting past me........ excuse me while I wipe away the drool.

Who else woke up with a splitting headache on January 1st? Fess up and raise your hand. We've all been there. January 1st was mostly spent in bed for me, with a brief break when I crawled into the kitchen to scavenge for food and then back to bed. Think bear in hibernation mode.
