Moving can mean literally getting your stuff and heading to a new city, or could just be transitioning to a new phase of your life. Both are equally tramatic, if you don’t have girlfriends to help you through it!

TIP TUESDAY #28 – Girlfriend Advice for Beating the Summer Heat?
July 29, 2008 – 10:59 am
So, girlfriends, we need your advice. (And isn’t that the great thing about girlfriends – free advice?!) This week’s TIP TUESDAY question is:
How do you beat the heat in the summer? What are your tips for reducing your cooling costs or advice for August?!
Me first. I do find cool places to visit – this lobby, mid-day movies or malls, outside dining. I love having dinner in the shaded part of our deck and getting up early in the morning to walk the dog while it is still nice outside (for him and me).
What advice do you have for our girlfriends? How do YOU deal with the summer heat?

May 28, 2008 – 8:21 am
Summer arrived right on time. Memorial Day snuck in a little early this year but Spring got the memo and left just in time for white shoes and colorful gardens (but not together!).
With the new season comes the obvious need for gardens filled with vibrant flowers and appropriately placed greenery. To someone like me, this [...]

TIP TUESDAY #24: Hey girlfriends – what’s your favorite hobby/passion?
May 20, 2008 – 11:15 pm
I’ve heard that if you look back to your childhood, before boys had an impact or peer pressure was in it’s teen madness, you’ll find the things that you genuinely love to do. Maybe it was acting, drawing, talking, cooking or even dressing up. When we were eight to ten years old, we did whatever [...]

TIP TUESDAY #21 – Are you a locavore girlfriend?!
April 29, 2008 – 10:02 am
Right there on the front cover of our local weekly publication CityBeat was my old roommate and girlfriend, Valerie. So fun to see a familiar face on this newspaper and very cool to read about her and what’s she’s up to. Valerie is a ‘locavore’ – a person committed to eating food grown/produced within a [...]

TIP TUESDAY #20 – How can we girlfriends dress ‘green’?
April 29, 2008 – 9:43 am
Have you changed over wardrobes yet? Packed up the sweaters and brought out the shorts? I just did and it was a reminder of all the clothes, shoes and ’stuff I have that I don’t use or wear on a regular basis. Do I really need all this? Do I really need more stuff??
