I love receiving a birthday card in the mail, but when it’s my time to send them out, I usually resort to a hastily typed email. Forgive me, but taking three kids anywhere near a rack of greeting cards is just asking for a headache. I have fewer excuses now that...

Since I’ve got a house full of kids, it’s a safe bet that my holiday cards are going to feature photos of those kids. But I still want those cards to reflect my taste–which means no cards with ice-skating penguins or dancing candy canes.The...

Out of consideration for my post-baby figure, I rarely bake any more. It’s just one of the sacrifices I make in the name of vanity. But at holiday time, my no-bake resolution goes out the window (and takes my willpower right along with it). Send me a...

Not that Yom Kippur is a Hallmark holiday or anything, but oh, how I am sending this Yom Kippur e-card out today to all my friends and observant family. It, along with a whole slew of other atonement-themed cards (seriously), comes courtesy of someecards, which makes...
