Last week my 10-year-old son and I went on a mother/son date to see Space! at the Center for Puppetry Arts. Space! is a rollicking romp through the solar system: if you’re looking for a fun day in Atlanta with your child and a great learning opportunity, too, it’s a good choice for a trip [...]

The “Good and Good for You Challenge”

January 28, 2012

I‘m trying to lose some weight using the 30 Day Shred, however it’s apparent that my diet needs to improve, too—a win-win prospect for both me and my family. Lean meat like pork provide the protein we need with less fat. I’m participating in the National Pork Board’s “Good and Good for You Challenge” during [...]

Concerts Done Right: Straight No Chaser

December 19, 2011

I occasionally apologize to my kids about the music of their generation, where popularity is garnered by bad behavior instead of talent, by style rather than substance. My parents reminisced about artists who wore suits on stage and whose dress and behavior showed respect for their audience. Even today’s talented artists sometimes fail on the [...]

Daily Lunch Dilemmas and a Solution from Healthy Choice

November 30, 2011

Feeding a family our size provides a constant challenge. Breakfast is fairly easy (cereal or bagels anyone?) and supper requires some planning, but it’s really lunch that sneaks up on me most days. We get busy and before I know it it’s early afternoon. Everyone wants something different and we usually have sandwiches, pancakes, Ramen [...]

November 28, 2011

Last year was the first time our family saw A Christmas Carol at the Alliance Theatre, in a beloved production which celebrates 22 consecutive years this season. The Dickens classic begins with greed, selfishness, and hatred and concludes with forgiveness; love for your neighbor; loyalty; and compassion. A Christmas Carol remains fresh year after year, [...]

Create a Timeline of Your Family’s Memories with LiveOn

November 22, 2011

I started this blog 5 1/2 years ago on the weekend of my mother’s birthday, two years after she passed away. I missed her wit and wisdom—her words—and wished they’d been recorded in more than recipe cards and stray notes. Blogging provides a means of capturing my family’s history in both word and image, something [...]

Our Perfect Road Trip to The Relevant Conference

November 7, 2011

Initially I’d planned to fly to The Relevant Conference, alone. However, my 16-year-old son created a bond with the folks from DaySpring in January when he traveled with me to BlissDom and worked with them in January. They wanted him to go and he wanted to go, so it was settled. Unfortunately, I delayed buying [...]

Where Everyone Knows Your Name

November 3, 2011

My bunch absolutely cannot do without community. We love family time, but getting together with friends—where the moms can share, the kids can play, and the dads can bond—is a must. Hanging with our Moe’s gang on Kids Eat Free night gets me through the hump in the middle of the week. Although we arrive separately in [...]

Wednesday evening eight of us attended opening night of Disney on Ice Dare to Dream at Atlanta’s Philips Arena. Dare to Dream combines story lines and characters from two new movies, Tangled and The Princess and the Frog, and one classic, Cinderella. Not to steal another Disney title, but enchanted we were. We met Rapunzel [...]
