Yesterday was my first day back at work. I actually couldn't believe how quickly it came up. I LOVE my job, but daycare has been a scary issue for me since I've had The Boy.

The McMoms are on the Case
Whenever I surprise my daughter with a mother-daughter lunch and tell her she can pick the spot she always, without fail, picks McDonald's. As the world leader in fast food there is an overwhelming amount of information swirling around about them and it is virtually impossible to get to the bottom … [Read more...]
