While I don’t go to airports seeking fashion inspiration, GOOD GRIEF, AMERICA!
People go about in clothing that they have no business leaving the house in!
Seriously, if I wasn’t home alone, I would even put on a robe over some of the “outfits” my fellow flyers wear in the name of “comfort”.
This is something [...]

Not long ago, someone called @YayPlanes started following me on Twitter.
The name made me laugh, so I followed them back.
Badda bing, badda boom, shortly thereafter @YayPlanes direct messaged me with an offer to review Yay! Planes, the DVD.
Yay! Planes is hosted by two sock puppets who live in a lost suitcase.
Kicking off with [...]

I like to have lollipops for the kids when we fly. I’m not a big fan of junk food for little kids, but the need something to help equalize the pressure in their ears during take off and landing.
Last trip we did organic lollipops, but this time we have CariFree Xyli-Tots Lollies, which contain [...]

I have used Bento on the Mac for a while. I was very excited to see that it was an available app for the iPad.
I mainly use Bento to help keep track of projects that I am currently involved with at work.
It is also a great way for me to [...]

If my calculations are correct, I have flown the US to Asia route 14 times.
On June 19, I did it again. With one fantabulous difference. This time. I was ALONE.
When I found out weeks ago that my husband would be flying back to the states before me, I asked him to PLEASE take at [...]

I know I am into family travel, but I secretly envy the business travelers and the cool tech gear they carry with them on airplanes.
Especially headphones; businessmen really rock them some expensive noise-canceling headphones. How cool are they? Like ice. $200 ice.
But if you aren’t George Clooney in Up In The Air, and [...]

All Natural Lollipops for Travel

A stash of lollipops has long been a standard in my carry on luggage whilst flying with children in tow.
The novelty of eating a lollipop and the relief of “popped ears” makes it a two for one deal: entertainment and a quasi-medical need met by one small lolly!
I was never discriminatory in my choice of [...]
