I spent a few hours at the Marin County Fair yesterday with my 4 1/2 year old and my husband. Just past the gates and before the first food truck there was a healthy-kids zone to encourage fitness and movement in kids. This booth is great every year and the best thing is they give …
Thumbs Up For the Library!
Summertime brings our family to the Marin County Free Library on a weekly basis. My 4 1/2 year old normally picks out books from the big kids' section on trucks, cars and other things that go or most recently, a kid's book about the Statue of Liberty. My 10 1/2 year old loves …
Tip of the Week
Don't mistake eating out with a celebration. Your birthday, anniversary, graduation or special achievement is one of the events that I think you can celebrate and let the calories fall where they may. A meal out with the kids, your parents, a girlfriend or business colleague is just that, a meal. Distinguishing between the two …
App Attack!
Admittedly I'm a little slow on the technology uptake. I wanted the Iphone but we're not an AT&T family so I ended up upgrading my old flip phone for the HTC Hero. This was in December, sadly it took me about 5 months to realize there was a "market" icon where I could download apps. …
The 3 R’s of Fitness – Rest. Relax. Recharge.
I just returned from a 4 day camping trip to New Hogan Reservoir with my family and a bunch of friends. I think we topped out at 45 people. It's only a 2 and a half hour drive away but when we get there it feels as far from home as you can get. We …

An Ode to Push Ups
And I'm not talking bras, although and ode to the Wonderbra is probably out there! Nope, I'm talking the old-fashioned, face first on the ground, he-man power move. All hail the mighty push up! Push Ups are a complete upper body exercise. You are firing your chest, back, arms, shoulders and core with a single …
Happy Father’s Day
Wishing all the Dads out there a Happy Father's Day. If you are lucky enough to still have your Dad around give the gruff old dog a hug and tell him you love him! If you are married with kids, give your husband a hug and remind him how much you appreciate the things he …
What Friends Are For
Ok so I watched the Real Housewives of New York's 3rd reunion show and I have to say it was a waste of an hour. Many hours in truth as I sat each week and watched each hour long episode. The bickering, the arguing, the back-stabbing and nastiness was just over the top. Oy. I …
Spin For a Good Cause
In the fall, my friend Jessica will be a part of the Best Buddies 100-mile bike ride from Carmel to the Hearst Castle in San Simeon . While it will be a beautiful ride and a great endurance event, she's raising money for a very worthwhile cause. For those who are not familiar with Best …
