Mom’s Gotta Have a Great Calendar

No Comments
| For Moms

Some of you BirminghamMoms bought your 2010 calendar weeks ago (you’re the ones who you got your Christmas decorations up before the second round of Thanksgiving turkey). You probably have two versions to manage: Your portable, personal calendar and the family calendar posted on the fridge or a common area at home. I enjoy the ritual of […]

Moms are Great Vacationers

No Comments
| For Moms

I just returned from a “girls’ trip” in which nine moms slipped away from their daily routines and left the kids and spouses behind to fend for themselves. We all checked in dutifully with home each day, giving shelf-by-shelf directions on where to find clean uniforms and frozen casseroles.  We were also giddy at the prospect of being untethered to all our usual responsibilities, including those that […]

Find: Photocandy – Sweeten Your Favorite Photo

No Comments
| For Moms

There’s a place for the serious portrait, complete with gilt frame and formal background. And then there is a place for the portrait that is a bit saucier and maybe unexpected, something that conveys personality reflecting both the subject and the portrait owner. Photocandy.biz can create an unforgettable image ranging from elegant and avant guard to whimsical and fantastic. What I love is that the Photocandy artist […]

Thanx, Spanx

| For Moms, What's New

Spanx Headquarters, Buckhead It’s time to be thankful for all our blessings, big and small. So let’s take a moment of gratitude for a product that makes the big appear smaller by about one dress size: Spanx. Our moms wore girdles or underwear with panels and shapewear of all sorts, but those thick elastic bands […]

Find: Martha’s got an Easy Button?

No Comments
| Finds, For Moms

Doesn't it just make you want to sit down and start labeling? What do Martha Stewart and and Easy Button have in common? Staples, the office supply store with the tag line, “That was easy.” Ironic, no? You must beware of the vortex where the Martha/Staples forces collide to create the most dangerous aisle in the store, the […]

Go the (bleep) to Sleep – Parental Advisory

No Comments
| For Moms, What's New

Forget the comb, the brush, and the bowl full of mush. There’s no little old lady whispering hush. When you  have a colicky baby that won’t sleep, you aren’t whispering “Goodnight Moon,” you’re howling at it. You will make any bargain, pay any price, buy any product that promises to give you even a moment […]

Ultimate Mother/Daughter or Girlfriend Trip This Spring

No Comments
| For Moms

Moms, you won’t find a better one-day getaway this spring than the Diana: A Celebration exhibit at the Atlanta Civic Center. Grab your mom, your daughter, or some girlfriends and get away to our southern sister city, Atlanta, for the royal experience. Maybe you woke up at 4 a.m. to watch the Royal Wedding live along with one billion other people. […]

It’s Not Too Late to Enjoy the Beach (and Win a Beach Bag)

Be Rewarded Beach Bag for a lucky BirminghamMom A late-summer beach trip is like hitting the snooze button on your alarm clock; you get a reprieve and a chance to slip away and escape just one more time. It’s not too late for us BirminghamMoms to show some love to the coast and get our beach […]

Make a Feather Wreath – No Glue or Mess Required

No Comments
| For Moms

Turn a feather boa into a cute wreath for next to nothing. I had a bright fuschia boa I had gotten as a party favor and couldn’t bear to throw it away (although what was I going to do with it?). I thought of all the feather wreaths I had seen and decided to give the […]

Lilly Ledbetter’s Grace and Grit

No Comments
| For Moms, What's New

After reading Lilly Ledbetter's story of working years in a tire plant, all the while harassed and paid much less than her male peers, I blush to think I ever murmured when the vending machine was out of Diet Coke. Lilly Ledbetter is one tough lady – make that person – with a compelling story […]
