When I first got wind of the Kickstarter for Peanut Gallery Comics , how could I not smile? The idea is so simple and smart -- commissioning one of four illustrators to create an original comic strip or frame of some funny, quirky, wonde…
Each year I have the best time scouring the web for the funniest Valentine's Cards . I was just never a fan of those long, poetic prefab cards written in wedding script. I guess if I have something sentimental to say I'll say it myself. …
It's not like I was thinking of you when I laughed my head off at this I survived another meeting that could have been an email coffee mug . I mean, even if we do conduct business together, and we do have conference calls that seem to go…
There's really not much you can do to make a baby cuter at the holidays, because the tree, the lights, the adorable little red sweater and well, it's a party full of screaming ovaries. But add in the Santafier pacifier , and you might pe…
We figured this was a pretty good time to start looking around at some great -- and effective -- books about manners for kids. I'm sure you feel me; my family calendar is already so booked over the next couple months, which means lots of…
The team at Cool Mom Picks always makes fun of me because of my strange aversion to nail art. (Seriously, do you see any nail art on our Pinterest boards ? Exactly.) The way some people hate feet, I'm a little weird about close-up photos…
First, you have to laugh at a shop called Wool and the Gang . (Take a sec...okay, there you go.) But when you look at their amazing selection of hand-knit accessories, and the knitting patterns you can buy, it turns out it's a massive re…
I laughed so hard when I found this adorable Mama said there'd be days like this onesie from Little Adi, inspired by the Shirelle's popular song lyrics. Was there ever a more perfect song chorus that's applicable to those early baby mont…
It may not be fair -- or the best system -- but I admit I give out a little more candy to the kids who come to my door in creative and clever themed Halloween costumes. And when they're cool sibling Halloween costumes that work together,…
This post is brought to you by Hulu Welcome back to fall, parents! If you're like us, this is the time of year you start diving back into the series you missed over the summer -- and realize just how many you've always meant to start wat…
What's making me happy right now? Totally randomly, I'd say really good tart lemonade, extra daylight while we still have it, an available outdoor table at my favorite local Italian place, the 80's station on Sirius/XM, the latest episod…
I'm pretty sure that artist Emily McDowell is inside my head, because every single thing she makes I find myself nodding and smiling, maybe laughing, and then laughing some more. And that's the case with her newest crop of funny coffee m…
This post is brought to you by Hulu. So by now, you all may know that we are pop culture junkies to varying degrees around here. We are also unabashedly nostalgic. Which is why our newest sponsor Hulu (yay, Hulu!) is pretty much making o…
It's that time of year when we dig deep, get picky, and track down funny Father's Day cards that really do make us laugh. And hey, that's harder than it looks! I don't know about you, but when I think of my dad, I don't think about mowin…
Some days are just...yeah. That. You know what I mean. And maybe a glass of wine will help, or maybe even an empty one --at least if they're these fantastic Rough Day Wine Glasses . Come on, you know you want to laugh. They're like the p…
We're so happy to be back with our third #UnguiltyPleasures video episode ! (Can you tell we're having fun?) This time we're talking about food. More specifically, the foods we love -- but maybe we're not supposed to love quite as much a…
Today's rules: 1. If you're a kid, don't forget to take care of your mom. 2. If you're a mom, don't forget to take care of yourself. 3. That mess in the living room/kids' room/kitchen/front hallway? It can wait. Ideally until someone els…
Each year for the last few years, we've been tracking down our favorite funny Mother's Day cards. Of course humor is subjective, but I always try to stay away from the cards that reduce her to a laundress/cook/taxi driver. Also all the M…
If you've parented toddlers, you're probably familiar with Todd Parr's children's books, and his distinctively child-like illustrations. Well, my interest was piqued when I found out about his free new ebook that happens to be for parent…
Kimmy Schmidt fans (Me! Me!) will rejoice at the discovery of embroidery hoop art featuring my own favorite quote of 2015 thus far: Hashbrown: No Filter . Hey, can't beat an Instagram inside joke making a hot new Netflix series. Oh, and …
If you are as obsessed with House of Cards as I am, please take a few minutes out of your day to watch House of Bricks, the hilarious Sesame Street House of Cards parody, because it is pure genius. I have barely come up for food or air--…
Suddenly I get all of Delilah's posts about making coffee with a Chemex and how every drop of effort is worth every drop of coffee you get; at least ever since my unexpected turn (if you ask those who know me best) from K-Cup coffee drin…
This year was a pretty serious year for the Oscar nominating committee, if you consider the likes of Selma , Gone Girl , Birdman ...you get the picture. Or pictures. But of course, there are always clever artists out there willing to tak…
Hope that whatever you're doing today, whomever you're with, and whatever you're listening to right now makes you very happy. No judgments. [ Valentine's Card : Debbie Draws Funny]
