X-Shade Car Sunshade Review

Posted on Feb 6, 2015

It is awful getting into a car that has been transformed into an oven from the sun. Here in Malibu, that happens often. So when X-Shade contacted me to review their Car Sunshade, I was excited.

Loops In Bloom

Posted on Jan 30, 2015

Recently a business associate of my hubby’s here in LA had a baby. We wanted to send something unique and personal. I instantly thought of Loops In Bloom. Loops In Bloom is a shop on Etsy that makes and sells handmade crochet baby items, most of which can be ordered in organic cotton (score!!). I like the organic cotton options because regular cotton requires the use of enormous amounts of pesticides to grow it – bad for earth, bad...

How to Rent a Timeshare #FamilyTravel

Posted on Jan 27, 2015

Back in the mid 80’s my mother discovered a timeshare out on Cape Cod. I remember my parents taking us there to check the place out for a weekend and how much fun it was. We had a spacious room with many of the comforts of home. They had this amazing pool on the beach that was completely encased in glass for year round use. Super cool, right? Then they told us that not only were we able to use that resort, but trade in our time for...

This Sunday in Malibu

Posted on Jan 26, 2015

Sunday was a kite flying kind of a day here in Malibu! The weather forecast had us in the 80’s so all other plans were abandoned and we quickly packed up for the beach. Chairs, beach toys, towels, surf boards and food all got thrown into the love bus. There was a nice breeze out so hubby tossed the kites in too and off we went. It was a lovely day of my favorite kind in Malibu. There is something about being at the beach. Yes, I know...
