Lots to share this week my friends! I'M SHARING First up, a little Valentine inspiration. If you follow me on instagram, then you know I woke up earlier this week with my brain yelling at me that "paint chips = arrow hearts". I reached out for advice and people seemed to dig it... but I was too lazy to get around to doing anything with the idea. So today I turn it over to you! What can you do with this simple concept of making hearts and arrows out of paint chips? Instagram or tweet … [Read more...]

I've got a brand new Valentine tutorial up on the mom channel at eHow and - I must say - I'm pretty excited about it. It's a jumbo, and much healthier, version of the classic conversation heart.

Modern Kid Art: Valentine Graffati
Last Thursday morning I was standing in the kitchen dealing with two delimmas: The natives were getting restless and I'd yet to make a plan for entertaining them. Our fridge, which is not enclosed and thus has a big, ugly exposed side, was making me twitch. (This is actually an ongoing dilemma, not especially specific to last Thursday but it was extra annoying that morning... possibly because I've recently given up my morning iced coffees?) As I saw it, I had two … [Read more...]
Friday Share: Toydozer Giveaway
I've now been back for nearly a week from the mega-blogging conference, Alt, and guess what - I'm brimming with new ideas and goals for MPMK. All of which I want to institute, like, yesterday! This week I've been starting with goal #1: Increase the Conversation. I know, I know - we all love our social media these days and we're so busy chatting it up on Instagram and the like that no one has time to actually comment on a blog anymore. Nevertheless - I've realized that compared to all of … [Read more...]

Traveling Utah: Alt Summit & Sundance
Hi friends... how are you? Before whisking away to Utah last week, I scheduled everything ahead of time and I didn't get much of a chance to check-in while I was away. I've missed you all. Now that I'm back, I thought I'd provide a glimpse of the whirlwind that was Alt Summit and Sundance. If you follow me on Instagram you've already seen the majority of these photos (and may very well be very sick of #altsummit at this point - so sorry for that, more variety to come, I promise). … [Read more...]
LOVE-ly Valentine Reads for Kids
Have you guys noticed that holidays have become a much bigger deal post-kids? I used to only give much thought to the big ones, mainly Thanksgiving and Christmas. For everything else it was more like, "It's Halloween/Valentine's Day/4th of July next week? Huh." But now every holiday is a chance to make a memory, teach my kids something, or create a tradition. One of my favorite ways to do so is through books. Which is why I love putting out holiday book lists for the littles. To that end - … [Read more...]

Click through for that idea plus a few more of our favorites. … [Read more...]
Learning to Eat for Energy
Not to be overly dramatic, but have I told you guys I'm doing something sort of life-changing right now? See, about a week ago I found out about this amazing new online course being put on by a pair of awesome nutritionists, Katie and Megan, and they graciously offered me a complimentary spot - despite the program being, literally, hours from beginning. In their words, "New Year: New Rules is a 15 day program that tells you what foods work, what foods don’t, which habits are the hardest on … [Read more...]
