I have to give it up to her she’s been pretty consistent and is keeping her readers in on everything from second guessing her wedding dress choice, what she should change her name to and hair and makeup tips.

Love and respect are two key ingredients for a successful marriage. While TheDad and I were travelling back to MD from the ATL I listened to a lot of talk radio. This drove TheDad crazy.

Yesterday we ran a story out of LA where the City Council has just passed a law banning any new fast food restaurants from opening up for at least the next year. The law was aimed at encouraging sit down restaurants with healthier menus to open in the area.

This can’t be more true than when you’re running around with the kids, don’t …
