School’s Out and It’s Time for New Traditions: #LMDConnector
School Is Out. Wahoo! Do a Little Dance or a Little Jig in Your Head. Truth is this year I have never been happier. I like having the kids home. They worked hard all year and it wasn’t an easy one. Too much change for little people can be strenuous and exhausting and this year, too many personnel at school changed over. Consistency was not the rule and my kids were stressed out. I am tired of Mommy taxi duty, and lunches, and I am more than tired of the need to advocate all the time for my children with special needs. So I say let’s celebrate!! So this morning…

Cooking With Kids
Cooking With Kids feature is ready to go. This week we are healthy again. I know, I know, what’s up with that? Well relatively healthy anyways. My kids love cauliflower, but mostly they love it cooked this way. Call it cauliflower casserole, if you want. My kiddo loves to grate cheese and the two girls could honestly eat a whole casserole dish of this stuff. No joke. Here’s the recipe: 1. Head of cauliflower. (Boil it 5-10 mins.) 2. Drain. Grate cheddar or mozzarella cheese – 1 cup 3. One cup mayonnaise and 4. One tsp of dijon mustard 5. Mix it together and bake about half an hour. 325…

Oxy Sweepstakes, Win an IPad and Skin Stresses
Well, here it is the last day of school and I have to tell you, the heat, stress and extreme increase in my workload has wreaked havoc on my skin. It’s like a trifecta of skin care stress. The perfect environment for breakouts. I have never had oily skin, but I do have breakouts like every other person on the planet. They are unpredictable for the most part. But this past month I have had a couple of big events to attend and you know what that means, right? Not going to show you a picture of my skin right before the big Toronto PR event I went to with…

Toiletree Travel Kit: Review
How cute and perfect is this for the summer months? I am always on the prowl for things that make travel simple, organized and enjoyable. The Toiletree kit does just that. A spot for everything and everything in its spot. Designed for organizing all your essentials when you travel, this kit has multiple separate compartments and a mesh pocket that keeps potentially wet or fragile items in their own space. I, personally like it for men or women. It’s water resistant and easy to clean. While it is perfect for men, it could also be a makeup bag or medical kit for either gender. I like that the containers provided…

Five Tips For Talking Money With Your Aging Parents #sandgen
Is tax talk taboo in your family? Is your Mom mum when it comes to sharing information about money? Some families have a difficult time sharing important details about finances and wills. We are often told from a young age that talking about what people make or asking questions about money is impolite. So no big shock that some families guard their estate secrets closer than the royal jewels. But waiting for an emergency or a health crisis to hit is not the way to manage an estate or carry out a loved ones retirement or health care wishes. According to a financial service representative in London, Ontario, there are…
