Miss Lori had a terrifical time at the new family movie Ramona and Beezus

July 25, 2010 By misslori View Comments

Yesterday my show in Romeoville got rained out and I was suddenly left with a free day. The idea of spending it in my pajama’s dozing was extremely appealing to me, but not so much to my children who were getting antsy already at 830am. So instead of lying around we quickly got ourselves together and headed up to the Evanston Century Theatre to join MJ Tam, Nancy Loo and some of the Chicago Moms for a screening of the new movie Ramona and Beezus, sponsored by Tide with Acti-lift. I am so glad we did!

Ramona and Beezus was easily the nicest family movie I have seen in longer than I can actually remember. [Read more...]

Miss Lori is romanced, but not carried away, by her paramore Traverse.

May 20, 2010 By misslori View Comments

For my fortieth birthday this past weekend I got the gift of a loan. A big loan! A brand new Chevy Traverse from my friends @ChevyMissions. It arrived Early Friday morning in time for me to launch into my event filled day. It looked very nice in my driveway I must say. I kept my garage closed because I didn’t want “TC,” (my 2005 Chrysler Town and Country), to find out. I know, I know you aren’t supposed to bring other suitors to the home-front. It’s a cardinal rule. But it just couldn’t be helped. I told “TC” that I was being driven around for my birthday weekend and that I would be back Monday. I felt terrible. But not bad enough to pass up the opportunity to spend time with my crush, Traverse. [Read more...]

Good Lordy Miss Lori is turning 40. Let’s PARTY!

May 13, 2010 By misslori View Comments

Friday May 14th at 10:05 am I will officially turn 40 years old! I can hardly believe it myself. I was pondering this morning, with some fellow bloggers on tour at Peapod, about what forty looks like, (because everyone at the table said I certainly didn’t look it). I tried to remember what I thought forty looked like when I was a kid. I remember my father’s  50th surprise birthday and my mother was forty then. So I guess I could relate it to that image. However, truthfully my Mom has always looked the same to me, like my mom.

For me 40 is more about my state of mind, where I stand in the World, and where I hope to go from here. With that in mind I decided it was important for me to start this pivotal decade out on the right foot, literally. [Read more...]

Miss Lori upped the fun factor for #MomBaskets2

April 27, 2010 By misslori View Comments

Last week I hosted my second #MomBaskets party for 1800Baskets.com. No, not another Twitter party. This was something very different. Though our #MomBaskets Twitter party was a great success and more importantly a lot of fun for all who participated, I thought it was important for us to change things up a bit for the #MomBaskets2. I knew the perfect place to do just that, MomsLikeMe.com. [Read more...]

Miss Lori offers a bountiful #Mombaskets recap

April 15, 2010 By misslori View Comments

If any of you were on Twitter Tuesday night you may have noticed a flurry of activity about baskets. Not just any baskets I say, #mombaskets, crafted by the dedicated creative folks at 1800Baskets based here in Melrose Park, Illinois. The party moved along fast and furious because we had 15 glorious baskets to give away in just two hours. But we weren’t simply gathering to give away prizes. No, we were gathering to talk openly about Mother’s Day gifts, treats, pampering and that hallowed Hallmark holiday, Mother’s Day. The women and men who joined the conversation were a wealth of creative ideas and apt to share. Ideas like… [Read more...]
