I’m trying to look hip. I had the pleasure of being invited over to the other side of 285 to check out one of Atlanta’s newest Live-Work-Play neighborhoods, Emory Point. I received some coupons and gift cards (and yummy food) from the vendors there but of course that doesn’t influence my opinion at all. Honestly, […]
Here’s to the day that may not always be flawless #ThanksgivingDay
For my friends who live outside the reach of the Southern grocery giant, Publix, I had to pass on their new Thanksgiving commercial. I’m not getting paid or even asked to do so but it makes me cry every time and I just had to share. Thanksgiving is not about a meal, but rather it’s […]
Verizon Wireless is NOT just a phone store + 25% off coupon #vzgaholiday
I was compensated for hosting a holiday blogger meet up by Verizon Wireless. I wasn’t asked to write this post but just wanted to share this cool information with you.

@Barefoot_Tess is the BEST place to find shoes for women with big feet
(I received a pair of shoes from BarefootTess.com to facilitate this review. My opinion is always my own.) My name is Maria and I have big feet. Phew…that felt good to say out loud. I have always had big feet. I wore a size 10 when I was 10 years old! And they didn’t stop […]
The Life of a #TeamMom
I played sports growing up. All sports. Humbly, I was pretty good at just about everything. I earned Varsity letters in three sports all four years of high school. I even earned a scholarship to play basketball at a Division I university. (Go UIC!) Now, however, I am off the field/court/track and am the Team […]
Christmas has come to Stone Mountain!
My family and I attended the media preview of a Stone Mountain Christmas this year but I was not asked to write about it nor am I being compensated for doing so. I just wanted to share. If you are looking for the Christmas spirit, go to a Stone Mountain Christmas. You will definitely find […]
Milk myths debunked by @hphood
My friends at Hood sent me some coupons for Hood milk so I could taste their product for myself. My opinions weren’t swayed but more than one cookie was dunked in the process of this review. Hood, one of the largest branded dairy operators in the US has been around since 1846. But it took […]
Three ways to make family travel FUN #waxfan
Traveling with kids is tough. No two ways about it. But when you soldier through it and go anyway, you create these amazing memories of family fun.
