The Struggle is Real…FUNNY with JIF and Neil Patrick Harris #Sponsored #JIFPowerUps Thumbnail The Struggle is Real…FUNNY with JIF and Neil Patrick Harris #Sponsored #JIFPowerUps Thumbnail

I absolutely loved Neil Patrick Harris on How I Met Your Mother. His character, Barney, had a sharp wit and a comedic sense of timing that could not have been played by anyone other than him. Recently, thanks to JIF and The Moms, I got to meet him in person and witness that wit and humor [...]

My evenings used to look like this: a mad dash home, battles over homework, dinner preparation, and maybe a load of laundry or two, while answering emails, calling the kids to eat (once, twice, three times the charm!), then the dreaded dishes, [...]

Avocado Toast with Tomatoes on Rye Bread Avocado Toast with Tomatoes on Rye Bread

I'm a shoe snob. But I have to admit, I've jumped on the ugly shoe trend. They're comfortable and that's high on my list of shoe must-haves. I'm just not the same Latinalicious lady when my feet are unhappy. Thankfully, ugly sneakers have been on trend for a while, because it's an ugly trend that works. Tracee [...]

In Pictures: Students Protest Gun Violence during #NationalSchoolWalkout Day Thumbnail In Pictures: Students Protest Gun Violence during #NationalSchoolWalkout Day Thumbnail

In some areas, entire schools joined in the protest, while in others only one student participated in the walkout. I personally want to applaud the students who joined the National School Walkout. Their voices and bravery are powerful [...]

I use to multitask. all. the. time. I thought it was the only way I could get things done. So I juggled every waking moment, stressing myself out as I tried to manage my workload and home life. You see, multi-tasking was not helping me. Instead of feeling accomplished at the end of the day [...]
