Four Days of Giveaways from Grow Modern Organic Kids: Day Two

November 2, 2010

As much as I can, I try not one to sacrifice the way I look and the fashion and style I love for the demands of motherhood. (Why are you not surprised?) Four years ago, when I had my first son, I bought products that fit the modern look of my home and the fashionable [...]

How to “grow” a modern organic family!

October 28, 2010

First g-d parted the sea so the Jews could leave Egypt. Then g-d made Peapod. In my rush home from a vacation (where, it can be noted no kids slept and I didn’t let them cry it out), I have had no time to do my yearly pilgramage to shop for Passover food supplies. But, [...]

Bravo for Bravado

March 1, 2010

In a change of events to my personal plans (read: need sleep, stop nursing), I can no longer use the awesome nursing supplies provided to me to review by the ever so generous folks over at Bravado. But, as the saying goes, my loss is your gain. If you’re nursing and can tell me your [...]
