The Children of Malawi

Malawi Children

Above photo credit: @Chookooloonks. All others below and video are mine and taken with an iPhone 6. It’s been five days since I left Malawi and all I can think about are the children.

Lake Malawi Sunset

Note: I wrote this within hours of arriving to Malawi last week but never got a chance to publish it due to the chopppy internet that was available. I decided to still publish it to give context to the series of posts coming up detailing the trip. The view from the terrace in my room where […]

Ensenada beach hot springs

I so needed a vacation and some real, real quality time with my girl and husband after the crazy, beautiful amazingness that was #WeAllGrow Summit. My girl’s spring break was three weeks after #WeAllGrow, so I blocked off the whole week so we could take off as a family on a border-crossing roadtrip. El Valle […]

How We Glow at Mom 2.0 Summit and Iris Awards

May 22, 2014 4 Comments

That glow was intensified this year with the first Iris Awards, celebrating the best in the parent blogging community. This year in Atlanta was my third time going […]

Today we are connected globally at the touch of a screen. In most cases it’s so easy for our kids to grow up with a global conscious that involves an understanding and respect for different languages and cultures. This is such a new phenomenon, but fifty years ago Walt Disney embraced the vision of uniting […]

Up Close and Personal with ‘The LEGO Movie’ — It’s Awesome {Video}

February 4, 2014 Leave a Comment

I seriously was supposed to publish this last week y tenía todas las buenas intenciones de hacerlo, but it was exhausting to be in the sick house with my girl who was out bad with a virus for the full week. At least, she had the awesome memories from the weekend at Legoland for The LEGO […]

Pinning la Vida

     NYT Cooking: On the hottest summer days, this is the dish to make because it requires zero cooking. A quick marinade of lemon juice, seaweed and fresh vegetables sets up a flavorful, no-fuss ceviche that tastes like the sea despite having no seafood in it. Store-bought minced or “riced” cauliflower won’t work for this dish. You have to start by grating or mincing a fresh whole head of cauliflower — that ext...
