What Am I Thankful For
What Am I Thankful ForWEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 2010 As I look back over the last year, the things that I am especially thankful for have remained the same. I call them my 3 "Fs" - faith, family and friends.
2. My family: What can I say? I hit the jackpot. I both love AND like my husband and two sons. (You know that it is possible to love someone and not really like their character, right?) Anyway, I am happy that I get to start and end the vast majority of my days with them. See how much my sons made me smile for Mother's Day 2010:
3. My friends: As I get older, I appreciate my true friends so much more. Age teaches me the difference between good acquaintances and true friends. I am fortunate to have many of the former and a special few of the latter. People who know me completely, but love my unconditionally/in spite of me - I cannot ask for more. There are few greater gifts than that.

Thankful
ThankfulTHURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2009 I am so fortunate that I get to write a post that goes live on Thanksgiving Day. This year has been an amazing journey with the normal ups and downs that are a part of being alive. Overall though, I can’t/won’t complain. My good moments have outweighed my bad moments. I definitely have so many reasons to be thankful. Rather than write about the latest fashion, beauty or other type of product, today I just want to focus on gratitude. As such, here are the top reasons that Thanksgiving 2009 is special for me: 1. My faith: Sometimes, when I read the news (i.e. about little Shaniya Davis) or hear of random things that happen to wonderful people (i.e. Anissa) it makes me depressed for a moment. If I did not think that there was more to life than this existence here on earth, I truly believe that I would be a very melancholy person. 2. My family: What can I say? I hit the jackpot. I both love AND like my husband and two sons. (You know that it is possible to love someone and not really like their character, right?) Anyway, I am happy that I get to start and end the vast majority of my days with them. 3. My friends: As I get older, I appreciate my true friends so much more. Age teaches me the difference between good acquaintances and true friends. I am fortunate to have many of the former and a special few of the latter. People who know me completely, but love my unconditionally/in spite of me I cannot ask for more. There are few greater gifts than that. Now it is your turn…who (or what) are you most thankful for this year?  Kimberly Coleman, a wife and mom of two sons, writes and speaks about parenting in the NYC Metro area.

Small Kitchen Appliance with a Kick
Small Kitchen Appliance with a KickTHURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2009 Today, I’ll be attending a “meet and greet” and luncheon with Food Network’s Chef Robin Miller at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. I’m excited because along with the gourmet cuisine (yes, I’m a “foodie”!), I’ll have the chance to see a sneak preview of some new house ware products.
The item that has been getting the most pre-event “buzz” is The Ninja Master Prep, a new food and drink maker. I’m not someone who loves to cook, so I’m happy whenever a product can make that job easier. From all reports, the Ninja Master Prep will do so. Since I’m someone who needs visual examples, it will be good to learn how to use the product from Chef Robin Miller. I looked on the site for recipes and I’m especially interested in learning how to make healthy blended drinks. School has only been in session for a few weeks and I’m already out of ideas for quick breakfasts! I’m also interested in learning how to make marinades. In an effort to eat better, we have been grilling most of our meats, so I would love to learn how to make them even tastier.
So tell me…which small kitchen appliance currently makes your life easier?

Mineral Lip Gloss Makes Me Feel Like A Trophy Wife
Mineral Lip Gloss Makes Me Feel Like A Trophy WifeTHURSDAY, AUGUST 06, 2009 I don’t wear a lot of makeup. I really don’t wear a lot of makeup when it’s hot outside. I have to do a little something with my eyes. (I’ve written before how my husband and sons have been blessed in the brow and eyelash area. Me – not so much.) Fortunately, my skin is relatively clear. Also, I have nice lips – a little gloss or lip color and I’m good to go. My lips are where I have fun with makeup. In the summer, I love lip glosses. It’s the ultimate hot weather beauty pick-me-up. I’m constantly looking for new ones to try out. My current favorite is Eyes Lips Face’s “Trophy Wife” http://www.eyeslipsface.com/products_minerals.asp?dept_id=1396. I like the name. (I’m my husband’s “trophy wife”. Okay, I’m only his wife, but I just like the way trophy wife sounds. I am a prize. He is too.) I like that the mineral formula is smooth when I apply it to my lips. I like that the gloss looks good alone and on top of my other lipsticks. I like that it gives my lips a nice shine without being too greasy looking. (I hate when lip glosses make me look like I’m wearing Vaseline or like I just finished eating a bucket of fried chicken!) Most of all, I love that it makes my lips look luscious - something that my husband especially appreciates!  A BIG KISS
