Dick Clark was long known for his departing catchphrase, “For now, Dick Clark…so long,” delivered with a military salute, and for his youthful appearance, earning the moniker “America’s Oldest Teenager.” I remember watching American Bandstand as a child, and listening to Dick Clark occasionally hosting the American Top 40.

Summer Skin Care

Published on 2012-04-14 12:59:31

Having been born, raised and still living in Florida I’ve had my fair share of the Florida sun. Growing up we spent many weekends, at the beach, pool, and on our boat soaking up the summer sun. I don’t remember using anything with sun screen, or protection from the sun. I’d spread out my blanket, turn on the radio, grab my book and bask like a butterball turkey in the hot sun. After becoming a mom I became more aware of the damages the sun can do to our skin and health. I’ [..]

Entertaining Your Family

Entertaining your family can be tough at times, especially if you have little ones, or if your budget doesn’t permit pricey family outings. One of the common choice of entertainment is the movies. But with young children it’s not one of the choices mom’s like to make. When my children were younger it was hard taking them to the movies, and movies aren’t really baby friendly.
