One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Remember Kids Will Be Kids

At Atria's I have SO many incomplete blog posts that it's laughable. They're incomplete because I'll start writing them and then life happens. They're incomplete because in between my inspiration for the post and editing it, I realized that I had a sponsored post to complete. They're incomplete because some national event took precedence.

There are so many explanations about why they're incomplete that I could devote an entire series of posts to that.

Wednesday Wisdom: Celebrate, even if you have to coordinate it yourself!

 Memorial Day fashion

On Memorial Day, I decided to have a cookout that I would organize myself. Usually, when we host cookouts, I make the sides, season the meat and Andre grills it. However, this year, he had to work. So, I decided to proceed on my own. 

 The food was good.
Indeed, I managed to make veggie burgers, homemade guacamole, homemade chip dip, two kinds of chicken, hot dogs, pasta salad, grilled asparagus, fried corn and broccoli salad. Doesn't that chicken below make you salivate?! 


However, I am most pleased that I managed to cook it all and not get anything on my white jeans. Pure talent (and lots of luck)!
