Before Stitch Fix, my biggest clothing problem was finding jeans that fit. So I was amazed when I got a pair in an early fix that slipped on like they were made just for me!

Now, thanks to SF, I have a handful of pairs I adore. Did I mention they’re styling for plus sizes too?! Check out all the details here.

When asked what curriculum I’d recommend for new homeschoolers, I often mention Oak Meadow!

In our early years OM gave a lovely blueprint to our days, offering both gentle structure & flexibility. Their creative, holistic curricula goes from PreK-12th, w/ an optional distance school to join, and this fall you can get to know them a bit by signing up for one of their virtual open houses!

Have you heard about Epic, the “Netflix of kids’ books” yet?

It’s a digital library for kids 12 and under–where they can access and read over 25,000 books, including top award winners and audiobooks. Learn more and try it here for one month free!
