The Name of the Game is Organized

By SavvyMom / March 13, 2007

What’s the name of the game? Spring cleaning!
How do you play? Fast!

Why do you play? To get organized!

With references to ‘thumping’ university drinking games aside (call it our misspent youth), the point we’re making is that we just don’t have the time to spend on spring cleaning that our moms and our moms’ moms used to. As with most aspects of our modern lives—efficiency rules the day.

The Proverbial Traveller

By SavvyMom / March 6, 2007

Got plans to get out of Dodge yet? Whether it’s a ‘winter’s almost over but it seems like it will never end’ getaway or a ‘must visit Grandma for Easter’ trip’, we have a feeling that planes, trains or automobiles (or some combination thereof) are in your future.
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step (packing of course). So take our proverbial advice and check out some of our old faves and new recommendations to make your travels more of a break this spring.
