The past week has been a tad hectic here at Crunch HQ. I wear a few hats in my social media/blogging/mom life and they all sort of happened on the same week. I was thrilled that the event I put together for Women in Biz Network with Mom CEO and Entrepreneur Mom Now went […]

Missed Bliss
During her panel at Blissdom Canada, the amazing Jennifer Reynolds, Editor-in-Chief of Canadian Family magazine put out the challenge to those in attendance to submit a pitch for a 700 word article that she would pay a dollar a word. Everyone was very excited. I immediately started mulling and note taking. However, life jumped up […]
Where’s my “I Went to Blissdom Canada & all I got was…” Shirt?
I can’t believe it is the Wednesday after the conference already. I can’t believe I made it, survived and had fun…and now it’s back to reality. Diego is shrieking in the background and the house is the usual mess. Home sweet home. I love reading post conference wrap ups and analysis, even when I haven’t […]
Birth Fest – A Community Event For Parenthood
I discovered Birth Fest when I was pregnant with Tara.

Little Blogs grow into Big Blogs
I will probably be struck of the mom bloggers Christmas list because of this, but here goes…. As I lay awake in the wee small hours waiting for Tara to make up her mind if she was going to sleep or scream a little more, I was perusing the Twitter stream on my iPhone. Someone….I […]
Spring in the Air
So this might not be perfect WINTER Olympic weather, but I am loving it. Any day when I look up on the way to the park and see an eagle soaring over my head in a clear blue sky is pretty groovy to me. Any day when I can get me, the baby and the […]
Cool Sites and Cool People..
Well, cool ( I am sure ) but cool now to me because they showed an interest in my little site. This rather hip and gorgeous chick emailed me asking to do a ‘interview’ for a site called Canada Blog Friends. I checked out both sites and thought..’yay more Canadians to get to know!’ and […]
