About Me

I’m a writer turned mom trying to learn to cook real food without burning our home down. Recent accomplishments: three wonderful children and a shower. Former accomplishments: author of 52 Fights (Penguin/Berkley), a consultant on its ABC pilot, and a firm stomach.
I’ve written for MORE Magazine, Parents Magazine, MORE.com, YourTango.com, Babble.com and The Star Tribune.

Just had to post something…a FB friend had a link to your blog. I loved the Dr. Phil spot! My family and I live in Ithaca and moved here two years ago. We moved from Minneapolis. Kind of the opposite of you…I think you live in Minneapolis and are from Ithaca originally. Small world! I miss Minnesota, but Ithaca is very similar in many ways to our old neighborhood in Minneapolis. I enjoyed reading your blog. Thanks!
Hahah – you and I completely have the same goals!
Hi, just tried subscribing to your RSS feed and it wasn’t working. Good luck (I have no idea how to fix those)….let me know b/c I think I’d really like finding you in my inbox!
And thanks for coming by my blog.

I forgot to tell you what a sweetie you have there!
I can’t have children biologically but my God sized Dream is to adopt one day!
Give that little one a big hug for me from God.
Hello, Jennifer, I’m sharing news of a new book designed for those in the midst of a break-up/divorce and I wondered if you’d be interested in taking a look author Nan Cohen and an electronic copy for a possible story. Ms. Cohen has been on the air in Pittsburgh with shows including “Dealing with Divorce”. Now, she’s posing the hard-to-ask questions–back by her personal experience and insight from working as a consultant with clients–in a guide and journal being released this week. Nan has also reinvented herself–having been shocked when her first husband asked for divorce–to find a niche helping others experiencing a change in their realtionship path. If Nan’s story and book is of interest, I’ll be happy to send details and a e-copy. Your blog is great–much needed–and I’ll look forward to discussing how our agency New Place might provide what you need.
Best regards,
