Our office is divided. Some of us will be rooting for the Seattle Seahawks on Super Bowl Sunday; others are getting pumped to cheer on the Denver Broncos. Neither championship team is from New York, so most of us don’t have much stake in who wins or loses. Either way, we’re looking forward to the […]

The Olympics are coming! Ice skating, slalom, hockey and more will be all over the TV in a matter of weeks. Of course it’s cool to watch, but why not up the wow factor with some homemade fun? Click through the slideshow above for Olympics crafts and treats for kids that are easy to make and will teach

An organized desk space is essential to getting your work done well and efficiently. Sitting down at a cluttered, disorganized space can lead to spending the majority of your time looking for files, paperwork, pens, staplers, and more, rather than actually getting your work done. An clean, beautiful desk might just provide some inspiration and excitement to getting the

Our newest City Guide is taking us once again to California–to “The O.C.” as we’ve come to know and love it. Known for a laid-back, family-friendly vibe, Orange County has a lot going for it. Situated right on the Pacific Ocean with mountain backdrops and enviable year-round weather, not to mention boasting Disneyland and gorgeous beaches, it’s no wonder

The key to throwing the most indulgent celebration of the year all comes down to two elements: food and drinks. But laying out an impressive Super Bowl spread doesn’t have to drive you insane. Here are some dos and don’ts to live by. Do stock your kitchen with all the celebratory fixin’s you can buy ahead of time (tortilla chips, chicken wings, beer) to avoid

  I once thought I would eventually turn into my mother, but now I’m not so sure. I’m 37 years old, and even though I just bought a pair of shoes specifically for doing Zumba (not sorry!), I have yet to succumb to three trappings of middle age that I thought were inevitable: being baffled by young

Winter means long days and night cooped up indoors. And if you don’t want your little one sitting in front of a screen playing video games or watching TV all season, you need resources to keep your kids occupied. What better way to spend a cozy evening as a family than with classic board games? From the oldie-but-goodie Candy Land to revamped versions

If the holidays left you believing that your family is insane, sit down and prepare yourself for a whole new kind of crazy in August: Osage County. When their father runs away, Barbara (Julia Roberts) and Karen Weston (Juliette Lewis) return to their childhood home in Oklahoma where their abrasive mother and aunt still reside. While

When we think of how to create a game-changing menu for our Super Bowl party, one of the first things that has got to be put on the sidelines is powder-mix dip from the supermarket. Not that pre-packaged mixes weren’t great in our college days as an easy Super Bowl (or anytime) snack, but nowadays, we

We’ve started the new year by clearing out the clutter and thankfully, some of our favorite stores have done the same. You know what that means: sale time! It may be counter-intuitive to fill up the newfound space in our closets and storage rooms with more of what we’ve recently gotten rid of, but we all knew that extra room wasn’t going to be
