UMIGO.com Is A Kid-Tested, Mother-Approved Website For Your Little Math Lovers

Over the past year, my 6-year-old son has really blossomed in math. I was talking on the phone to my husband about a delivery with my son present. "It's going to be an additional $50 with a $59 delivery charge," I told him. "They're charging you $109 dollars?!" my son Thomas asked, his eyes wide. My husband and I looked at each other. When did he learn to do math like that in his head? We … [Continue reading...]

Bonefish Grill Review: New Menu Warms Up Your Winter Taste Buds

Disclosure: I was given a $50 gift card to review a dinner at Bonefish Grill. All opinions are my own. One of the New Year's Resolutions my husband and I made as a couple was that we needed to be more intentional about our relationship. Spending time together (sans kids!) needed to be more of a priority. Too often we get busy with our individual lives that we're not cultivating a joint life. … [Continue reading...]

[Date Night] “Beyond The Lights” Brings Love Back To The Big Screen

I'm a sucker for a good love story. Show me two people falling for one another, helping each other grow and evolve, and I'll show you a woman who is swooning. Gina Prince-Bythewood, director of both Love & Basketball and Disappearing Acts, knows how to write incredible love stories. So I knew I was going to go see her new film, Beyond the Lights, as soon as I saw a trailer earlier this … [Continue reading...]

#Blackish Episode 4 Recap: “Crazy Mom” – Nailing The Truth About The Mom Life & Gender Roles

I was a little skeptical when I first saw the trailer for ABC's new comedy, "Black-ish." It looked a little corny, and I wasn't sure how much Anthony Anderson I could take weekly. He's a funny guy for sure, but would the material be his style? Would it work? Episode four of Blackish is what sealed the deal for me. In this episode, "Crazy Mom," marketing executive dad Andre (Anthony Anderson) … [Continue reading...]

REVIEW: AlternaVites Powdered Multivitamin & Minerals

I can't swallow pills. Well, I can, technically, but I have to get practically a gallon of water and they have to be super small. I've tried everything. Putting water in first, tilting my head back, doing it super fast, trying to swallow with food. It's just a nightmare. I was in tears during my pregnancy trying to take those horse pill-sized prenatal vitamins. Yuck. I was delighted when I was … [Continue reading...]

REVIEW: Layers of Me Coconut Shea Body Butter

2014 has been a year for me to stop just "playing like a grown-up" but actually becoming one. I'm upgrading my life in all the ways that matter and carving out the space for me to determine what a adult Tara really enjoys. One thing I'm getting back to is taking better care of my skin. In my teens, I had this elaborate skincare routine that kept me looking impossibly young and acne-free. I can … [Continue reading...]

Try The Bold New Menu At Bonefish Grill #HelloNewMenu

To say "my husband and I don't get out much" would be an understatement. For one, we're busy. He works incredibly long and strange hours and I handle most of the childrearing while bringing in a hefty paycheck of my own, so we're constantly negotiating when one of us will be home to watch the children. Time together without the children is rare. So rare, that when Bonefish Grill asked me if I'd … [Continue reading...]
