    The barking dog spray sounds amazing – if you’d like a laugh, I thoroughly recommend reading the first review on Amazon.com. Made me laugh (discreetly!) in the office!

      The spray is amazing. We gave a can to our neighbor, who has a labradoodle puppy, and they would probably give us their first born if I asked for it, they were so grateful.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth).

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us.
