When Cricut wrote me back in December and told me that I was one of 45 influencers selected to participate in a super-secret product announcement, I was over the moon. You already know my love for Cricut runs deep — from their Explore Air…
If I had to pinpoint one thing in my day that makes a schedule tricky to come by, it would be virtual school. The timing can be somewhat unpredictable and with random nap times and Zoom calls thrown into the mix, it’s not always…
Crafting is one of the things keeping me sane as we stay inside for this extended period of time. Last fall, the Cricut Explore Air 2 entered my life and inspired me to turn my basement into a full-fledged craft room. I swear, it’s…
When it comes to anything tech-related, I usually leave the expertise to Tyler. But when it comes to monitoring my baby boys, I take the reigns and dig thoroughly to make sure it meets my extremely high expectations. There’s no room for error when…

I’ve been living in this outfit lately. It’s so easy to match with our ever-changing Los Angeles weather these days. I’ve still been getting fixes every month even though I haven’t shared in awhile, but instead of keeping all 5 items I’ve been…
My husband likes to joke that puzzle games keep our marriage thriving and I have to agree! I play them often and always recruit my husband to help me along the way. They’re fun for the whole family and keep my mind sharp. The…

A couple weeks ago my husband and I experienced a celebrity sighting and it jogged a conversation between us: which celebrity would you want to bump into in Hollywood? Mine was a no brainer: Pamela Adlon. Although she’s been acting practically her whole life, I…
I received a bunch of questions about the tableware I used in yesterday’s post: it’s from a brand called Re-Play Tableware! These products are made in the USA, BPA safe, and FDA approved. Plus, they’re made out of milk jugs. Seriously! Here’s a quick…
