Thirty-six year-old wife and mom to BJ (8) and Mia (4). I'm the editor at the Sisterhood, a Feingold mom, I really love to run (really), read, cook amazing things, and photography is my fledging passion. My motivation is motivating other people to realize they can do this whole weight-loss and exercise thing. I'm living proof!
Sorry, but there are no tweets right now.

The 80s were an amazing musical decade. In that decade I went from 5 years old to 14 years old, and that’s some pretty informative years. I had a young, hip mom, who made sure I had an appreciation for all music (even some I probably had no business listening to!), so I’m giving you [...]
Oh, boy. It’s the day after Easter…..please step away from the Peep and no one will get hurt! Along with Valentines and Halloween, Easter is one of the sweetest holidays of the year. Why do we think it’s okay to steal candy out of our kids baskets when they aren’t looking? And you over there [...]

This article was first published in December of 2009, and we felt like it deserved another spin, so take it away Heather! I would be willing to bet that if I sat down to dinner with almost any one of you, I’d be finished with my plate before you had a chance to cut your [...]
