Rock Star on the RoadL Rand McNally's Car Karaoke

I'm packin' up!

Oy. For those of you who have never seen a Woody Allen Movie, gone to hear Barbra Streisand perform, or had grandparents who remind you of Billy Crystal when he does his old man schtick, “oy” is “oh boy” with a Jewish accent. It pretty much describe the way I feel right now. There are [...]

Sleepaway Camp for Families? You Bet.

Posted in Travel on May 23, 2009 | 1 Comment »

So last week on Traveling Mom.com, I wrote about camping.  Or, to be more honest, about NOT camping.  It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just that — well, I don’t know how so I don’t want to. So this week, I started looking for alternatives.  And here’s what I came up with: Family [...]

Only in New York…

This past Wednesday, I had a day that could only happen in NY.

If you’re from the Northeast -and maybe even if you’re not – going to Florida means one of two things: going to the ultra-hip, cool, and trendy South Beach, or going to see your Grandparents. Of course Grandparents-in-Florida means a lot of things: – polyester pants – canasta by the pool – early bird specials [...]

Posted in 23andMe, Diet, Travel, Weight, tagged , , , , , , on January 22, 2009 | 10 Comments »

I’ve been back from my 23andMe super-secret-special-project extravaganza trip for some time now.  I’ve been basking in the glory that was four days away from household chores, drop-off, pick up, and frigid temperatures.

Virgin America is, quite simply, the best airline I have ever flown. Clearly, the people at Virgin Airways do not know that in order to be an airline, you must be rude, inefficient, overcrowded, and have an aesthetic sensibility from 1972. No – these people greeted me at Kennedy Airport with a smile….and not from [...]
