Whoo hoo! It's countdown to summer camp. Kids are just as excited about the activities and daily pancake breakfasts as parents are about having some quality time alone.

Do you find packing your child's bags for camp stressful? There are so many “Do’s” & “Don’ts” that you have to consider! Will she be embarrassed if I pack her Disney character underwear? Deet or Deet-free...

My heart beats a little faster every time I walk into the specialty cheese aisle at the supermarket.

During my last pregnancy, I was briefly lactose-intolerant even though I craved cheese like I'd never ever see it again. Creamy Bries, spicy Jalapeno-Havartis, and smoky Goudas were all I could think about. Thankfully, after my son was...

We all know we're supposed to get a full eight hours of sleep every night, but how often does that really happen? Some of us are moms of night-owl toddlers, while others have demanding careers or irregular sleeping patterns. A restorative eight-hour night is like a mythical unicorn: we've heard of it... but does it really exist?

It's called beauty sleep for a reason because nighttime hours...

My family hails from the Caribbean and I have been fortunate to visit frequently. Don’t hate! While I enjoy this access to natural Vitamin D, the fact is that the sun and I have a bit of a love-hate relationship.

Growing up, my sunscreen use was not so frequent and I now have many freckles that bear witness to it. When you’re a child, the last thing you think about is waiting...

Most of us have to deal with blemishes during our teen years: anything from occasional breakouts to more serious afflictions of acne seem to be part of almost everyone's experience - and we have the yearbook pictures to prove it!

There can never be too many bridal cake & dress reality shows on TV, right? I can't be the only one here who has been guilty of binge-watching these overplayed reruns on weekends...

It all started off as a Harry Potter-esque smudge descending from just left of my widow's peak. Being the middle of summer, I blamed it on a sloppy application of facial sunscreen resulting in a unique sunburn. A little BB cream was more than sufficient to cover it up at first.

After a while, my distinctive lightning bolt became more pronounced and I started to see a few new darkish spots...
