One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

on
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.

The Secret To A Successful Super Bowl Party: Great Snacks!

on


Working moms like to party like everybody else, perhaps even more if the portrayal in “Bad Moms” is accurate. (If you’re curious about that, here's a link to post about my recent trip to Miami!) That said the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons are playing in the Super Bowl on Sunday night, which is effectively a school night. For that reason, most working moms will probably be watching the game at home instead of lugging their kids through the cold, disrupting their routine, and making their Monday morning hell.


If you choose to disrupt your schedule in pursuit of Super Bowl fun, no judgment.
 If you’re like me though, excited about the game but reluctant to disrupt your kids’ schedules and aware that grown up parties with kids are not always that much fun for the grown up, stay home and have a little Super Bowl Party of your own. My son thinks fun parties require cool snacks! I think that cocktails make the party. And my daughter thinks the day isn’t complete without desserts. So, as a tribute to all of us, below are links for all three!

NOTE: Just because I live in Pittsburgh, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers doesn't mean that I have to boycott the game. I can cheer for the Falcons! 😉
