One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

Following Instagram posts can make you feel like other moms are either made of money or have sugar daddies funding their lifestyles. I can assure you. I have neither. There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be. It's not because I lied about having a sugar daddy or have a trust fund.  It is because I am frugal. Indeed, being conscious of expenditures is integrated into my lifestyle.  I know that it is gauche to discuss money and yet, I feel compelled to share some thoughts.

National Ice Cream Day!

As a working mom, it is hard to keep track of some of the more obscure holidays. So, I have decided to share them with you.

This Sunday is National Ice Cream Day!


Most people love ice cream. My daughter loves ice cream in a waffle cone, even though she just eats the ice cream and discards the cone. My friend Amanda used to say that she couldn't see someone eat an ice cream cone without having one herself.

And the funny thing about ice cream is that it makes us smile! If you would like to celebrate a holiday and enjoy a sweet treat, enjoy an ice cream cone, a bowl or a sundae this Sunday.
