It’s an event my family has talked about for months…Festival of Bacon! Last year we went to a Bacon Festival in Orlando which was basically bacon cook-off between food trucks. It was pretty awesome. This was the first year for the Festival of Bacon, held in Festival Park in Downtown Orlando. Gates opened at 11…
We had a great day one and planned a pretty busy Saturday. It involved exploring along the Blue Ridge Parkway. We basically had to be at a wedding at 1:30- and it was a good hour plus from our hotel. We decided to take this scenic route and make lots of stops to take a…
On Saturday, more than 300 bloggers and brand strategists gathered at Orlando’s Full Sail campus for the 2013 Florida Blogger and Social Media Conference, also known as FLBlogCon. This was my second year attending the conference, and once again, my brain is still trying to figure out where to start in disgusting all the information.…
I know I’m becoming *that person* but I can’t help myself. I discovered this fabulous gem after watching the Season 2 finale and then going back to watch the very first Newsroom episode. Then I became a super dork and created these graphics because I love it so.

It’s that time of the year again when I get all my trashy magazines in order and set up my DVR schedule. Here’s at look at what’s ahead for what I think will be a promising 2013 Fall Schedule. Below is not the complete schedule – but what I plan to watch and/or my editorial…
It’s back-to-school time for my kids! Are they excited? NO. They are excited to see their friends. But that’s about it. I did ask them what they were wearing to the big day and they looked at me like I’m crazy. “The same thing we wear everyday, mom.” To which Brendan added, “I hope the…
I know my last post promised to be very long. But as I approached the reunion part of our trip, I realized that I was going to need to dedicate an entire blog just to this topic alone. So I apologize. As you should totally know by now, we are a Michigan State University household.…
We planned a one-day visit to Cedar Point into our vacation. This was a great thought because: We had the time. Aside for my husband, none of us has ever been. Both boys are tall enough to ride most of the rides. I scored free tickets by using my hoarded Coke points. We really didn’t…
So tired… This will be a marathon blog post people, so grab a glass of wine and settle in. We are home. It was a wonderful vacation. I wanted to blog more along the way but there wasn’t time and there wasn’t great internet. And frankly, I was exhausted. You can read Part 1 and…
