With all the awesome Black Friday sales online today, I've had the best morning avoiding the crowds at the stores. I've been cuddling up with my girls, watching the Mahna Mahna video for the zillionth time on you tube, and jumping online…
Now that I'm expecting baby number two, accessories are the only fashion items I will allow myself to indulge in. I mean, who knows what form my figure will take after I pop out this little dude? To that end, I will certainly be hitting …
So you've got a little girl who likes pink? Shockingly, I have one, as well. She loves purple, too, of course. And I admit freely that there are times I wish she'd wear any other color. But if you can't beat 'em, join 'em --on your own t…
First I was excited about boot weather. But now that I'm firmly settled into my kickers, I'm ready for the next stage -- scarf weather. Even though I've got a killer line-up waiting in my closet, like any good scarfaholic, I always need …
Is there a single mom who isn't stressed out by holiday cards? Like I don't already have enough to do, let alone trying to find one picture where everyone in the family looks halfway decent and then praying that the photo cards we order …

The temperature is dropping, and that means I must face my daily terror: Five Minutes of Goosebumps. You know-- when you get out of a hot shower and spend five minutes freezing and fumbling as you slather your skin with lotion? The good …
I love the idea of giving out a little something more than a holiday card to my friends and family. Of course, I wish I could give everyone a gift, but since money doesn't grow on trees, here's another idea. [don't miss a great offer aft…
It's quite possible that I might never set foot in an actual store again. I mean why bother schlepping outside when everything you could possibly want is a few clicks away? When I say everything, I mean the most gorgeous French designer …

When I first discovered Abe's Market last year, I thought of it as an online Farmer's Market - goodies like small batch natural soaps, handmade baby blankets, organic vinaigrettes, and pretty much everything I love about our local Farmer…
I'm not what you'd call the decisive type. When I shop online, I put my almost-purchases in the cute little cart icons and let them rest there while I construct (and reconstruct) mental pro and con lists as to why I should get them. (Yea…
We're board game freaks around my place, and now that I have kids old enough to play, we usually have game night at least once a week. That is, if we have all the pieces to them these days. Well hallelujah for a new event that's letting …
I more than happily paid full price for my Rockin' Baby Sling, and considering I wore it almost every day for six months with two out of my three kids, it was well worth it. But they're currently selling all their stock for an exciting r…
I love this time of year. Now that it's not grossly hot, I feel inspired to do fun activities with my kids outdoors . But in a few months when the temperature dips? Yup, it's a long winter and there are only so many times you can walk ar…
I am not going to mince words here, so let me just say it: I hate that this site is named " Gaggle of Chicks ." Truly. I am not a chick, I am not part of a gaggle, and since when are great deals only for moms? C'mon . So, yes, if you nee…

Though I'm definitely smitten with some of the pricier kids designer clothes, I'd much rather pay last season's prices . Or less. So, if you're like me and aren't so concerned with what season your kids' clothes are from, then I've got a…
If I could, I'd spend all day shopping for home decor. But with a gaggle of kids, that whole bull in a china shop analogy springs to mind. Thankfully, I an lean on the membership sales sites like One Kings Lane and their crazy mad discou…
An Orlando vacation is pretty much a requisite at some point in your life once you've had kids, right? It's like you hit the L&D ward and they give you breastfeeding advice, a swaddling tutorial, and coupons for Sea World. While an Orlan…
