Most families who live in New York suddenly had to spend a lot of time with one another a few months ago and we all realized that this was the perfect opportunity to create opportunities to spend meaningful quality time together. When you have two teenagers like I do, it can be a little more challenging to do things as a family that are "cool" enough to keep teens engaged and away from their phones. If you have teens you know exactly what I am talking about! I was so excited when I learned that I would have the chance to review the ProjeX™ Projecting Gaming Arcade from New York City-based NSI International, Inc. ProjeX™ lets you blast targets such as ducks or UFOs that are projected right onto your wall like a real life video game! The best part is that all of these targets each come with its own unique sound effects! Since both of my sons are really tech-savvy and love competing against one another, I knew immediately that ProjeX™ was the perfect game for … [Read more...]

Making Healthier Food Choices
This year, I am making a conscious effort to introduce healthier food choices to my family. Being a working mom, it is often difficult to juggle meal planning and meal preparation along with my professional responsibilities. My sons are actively involved in sports and I feel that their eating habits should mirror the good habits that we are trying to instill in them with regards to physical fitness and nutrition. Breakfast has become one of the meals that we focus on because studies have shown that eating a healthy breakfast helps you to have more energy throughout the day and be more productive.
