When I first saw the ad for The Croods from DreamWorks Animation, I was skeptical. Cave men aren’t really my thing. But having seen the full trailer and read some reviews, I’m kind of excited to take the kids. It looks like a fun movie (it opens on March 22). And what better way to…

Fall Back in Love–Fun, Fondue, and a Giveaway

Romantic Dinner at The Melting Pot

Big Guy and I have been married 8 years. We can’t decide if it feels like more or less, but it is what it is. We’re not big “date night” people (we’d both rather just stay home with the kids off to visit grandparents), but every year we try to do a weekend away together….

Since the Disney Store helped me celebrate my 40th birthday last year, it seems only fitting that I help them celebrate their 25th. I remember the first time I was able to visit a Disney Store – I thought I had stepped into a dream. For a Mickey Mouse fan living in Massachusetts at the…

Romancing the Introvert Year ‘Round #Giveaway
