Shop Black Friday Deals Online

Black Friday is one of the most hated days in my family. I just don’t understand the point of people camping out or cutting their Thanksgiving holiday short just to get a good deal on a TV. I get it, you could save hundreds, but is it really worth fighting the horrific crowds or possibly getting trampled to death? No thanks, I’d rather shop Black Friday deals from the comfort of my couch while watching Football or a movie, recovering from my food coma. Luckily, most stores have already started their Black Friday deals, and you could get them online!…

The Children’s Place: Petite Stylist Edition

Disclaimer: I was given a gift card in return this experience. All thoughts and opinions are my own as always! On a recent trip to The Children’s Place, I couldn’t help but go absolutely crazy and pretty much buy half the store! The new holiday and winter styles for girls absolutely took me to an icy wonderland as I combed through the glitter, pastels and glamified racks. I couldn’t wait to get my finds back home to my little shopping buddy who sadly missed out on the shopping excursion because she was in school. To my surprise, when she looked…

Easy Thanksgiving Side Dishes

I can not believe Thanksgiving is in 2 days…TWO! It is one of my favorite holidays to spend with family and enjoy being gluttonous! My family typically makes a million side dishes, because lets face it, the sides make the meal! Everyone has their favorites and if we don’t make them, someone will be mad! A few years ago, my mom didn’t make one of my favorite side dishes: biscuits (Only the Pillsbury kind)! She subbed it for a different brand of biscuits and I almost threw a tantrum – the kind a three year old throws when you don’t let them have…

Thanksgiving Books for Kids

Since November came in without any warning, I wanted to get my kids out of the candy-craze that Halloween brought and into the glutenous delight of Turkey Day! Last month, I shared our favorite Halloween books with you and since I can’t get enough of my kids love for books.  I had to get them excited for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday with some classically awesome Thanksgiving books! Our bedtime routine typically ends with cuddling together on the rocking chair reading Pete The Cat, The First Thanksgiving, Who Will Carve The Turkey This Thanksgiving, Turkey Trouble and Sofia the First. The girls get so…

Rent The Runway : My Favorite Plus One

Rent The Runway : My Favorite Plus One

I’m sure by now most of you have heard of Rent the Runway. It is a site dedicated to renting hot, high-end fashion dresses to the public. For someone who doesn’t typically have a gala or red carpet event to attend every month, I don’t see the point in buying a 200-400 dollar dress for one occasion every year or so. That is why I love Rent the Runway – I can get a dress that is in style, for fractions of the price. For the past couple of weddings we had to go to, I was bored of my go-to…

Fried Turkey Marinade

Fried Turkey Marinade

Fried Turkey > Roasted Turkey. Yes, you read that correctly. Fried turkey is abundantly superior to a boring old oven roasted turkey. For the past 2 years, we have been frying our turkeys. My husband ran out a week before Thanksgiving 2 years ago to buy a turkey fryer and I thought he was insane. All you hear about are the explosions, fires and horror stories associated with turkey fryers. I made it perfectly clear to him that I would not be going near that thing, nor will it be in any close proximity to our home. He yes’d me…

How To Clean Your Shower Glass

The dreaded shower glass and the grimy spots that appear on it makes me want to rip my hair out! There is nothing that I dislike more than cleaning my shower glass. I don’t know why, but I’d rather scrub every toilet bowl in my house 10 times then clean the damn shower! I have tried using a squeegee after every shower to help eliminate those gross grimy spots, but they still appear. Sure, you can buy different kinds of cleaners to get your glass sparkly clean but who needs all those extra chemicals in your house. I have a little cleaning…

After a few weeks of kids being sick and traveling, my husband and I were long over due for date night! We headed to Bonefish Grill in Coral Springs for some cocktails, Bang Bang Shrimp and to try their new Fall menu we had been hearing about. Bonefish Grill is one of our favorite spots and you can always count on great service with exceptional food, every time. That is what keeps us coming back for more! We headed there on a Wednesday night and to our surprise, the entire restaurant was bumping! Packed with tons of patrons all enjoying…

Healthy Chicken Salad Recipe

Healthy Chicken Salad Recipe

  There was a time when I ate chicken salad almost every day. Sure, I may have been pregnant and it was one of the only sandwiches I could eat but that stuff was my jam. Even though I was lazy and pregnant and ordered it from deli’s or Publix most of the time, there were a few instances that I actually made my own. When I did, I tried to make this healthy chicken salad recipe as opposed to the mayo-packed crap I’d get. Needless to say, 10 months of chicken salad pretty much made me take a long…

SoCozy Kids Hair Products

Posted by in November

Being a child of a hairdresser, I have always had an affinity towards all kinds of hair products. I could spend hours in the hair care aisle trying to figure out which new shampoo to try out or which straightener I wanted next. Now that my girls are getting older and getting away from the typical baby washes, I started paying more attention to what is better for them. It is like a whole different ball game and honestly, just because it has Dora the Explorer on it, doesn’t mean it’s the best for their little tushies and locks. I was…
