In 2024, Easter Sunday is March 31. So it’s early this year. You can expect to find all of these Easter markdowns starting…
Chances are college students use a dorm packing checklist whenever they move into university housing. This is a checklist with all of their dorm must have essentials. Truth is, whether you’re moving out of your dorm for the semester, the summer or forever, it’s always a good idea to have a checklist to work from….

These financial pressures are prompting many to seek creative ways to save money, particularly in the kitchen. Classic cooking methods, long revered for their simplicity and cost-effectiveness, are returning to the kitchens of many modern families, including ours. Some…
Do you enjoy finding hidden gems in the US as much as I do? It’s always fun to figure out the coolest places to visit that many people don’t know about. For example, now that we’ve moved to Maine, we’ve discovered all of the Maine beaches where we can take our dogs. That’s the kind…
Yesterday, I took one of my favorite Disney Peloton classes. Again. It was Jon Hosking’s 20-minute Outdoor Disney walk. I’ve been taking it nearly every morning because, frankly, the music just makes me smile. Also, Jon’s wittiness makes me laugh. It’s not the first time I’ve taken one of Jon Hosking’s Disney walks. Nor is…
If you’re wondering if the best heart rate monitor for Peloton is the one that comes with your bike or Tread, this blog post will answer that question. I can tell you that when we first got our Peloton bike in 2016, I strapped on the Peloton heart rate monitor and started working out. However,…
It wasn’t until one of my first visits to the Peloton Studios in New York that I’d even considered looking for Peloton bikes in hotel gyms. However, back then, I was in the city because I’d booked a 60-minute ride with one of my favorite instructors, Christine D’Ercole. The next day I was riding with…
When it comes to phone protection cases, I’ve yet to find a warranty like the Otterbox warranty. Otterbox truly stands behind its products. Since purchasing my first Otterbox with my first Smartphone more than a decade ago, I’ve only had to use the Otterbox warranty twice three times. The first time was way back in…
I’ll never forget the first time I took one of those Peloton scenic rides. I decided to “ride” through Las Vegas. It’s a place I’ve never visited but hoped to one day. Why not take a “tour” of Sin City while keeping my Peloton streak alive? Well, if you took some of those old Peloton…
A lot has changed since I attended the media preview in June 2022 for the reopening of Peloton Studios NYC for in-person classes, the soft opening later that summer and then my return trip in October 2022. I’ve since been back one more time in December 2023, so this update is long overdue. In this…
I’d never experienced how GoPuff works until I was staying with my daughter in Pittsburgh. She was recovering from knee surgery and needed medicine. However, because it wasn’t safe to leave her alone, I couldn’t just run out to the store. That’s when she suggested we use GoPuff. What is GoPuff? I’d heard both of…
From my research, I feel confident saying that Marriott hotels have one the highest number of EV chargers of chains in the United States. Sure, Hilton, Radisson and even Holiday Inn promote offering their guests EV charging stations. However, in researching this article, I found that Marriott properties seem to consistently offer the ability for…
Today, I got an email from Bombas warning about dupes or fake socks that people might be selling online. I guess copycat Bombas socks have shown up on Amazon and in other places. And if people were looking to give Bombas items as gifts, the company wanted to tell customers like me to know what…
As someone who came of age in the 1980s, it is both fun and sad to reminisce about the defunct stores that no longer exist. I’m talking about the retailers where my friends and I would visit while hanging out at the mall sometime in the 80s decade. Also, this could be the old department…
The very first drive in movie theater in America opened in New Jersey in 1933. The concept of watching movies outdoors from your car was so new and novel at that time that opening night drew people from at least 20 states. At one point, drive-in theaters reached this peak popularity in the 1950s. Then,…
Last fall I took a girls trip to the Caribbean. I really hoped that the resort where we would be staying would have Peloton bikes on site that I couldn ride. Sadly, they did not. However, it inspired me to write this post on Caribbean and Mexico hotels and vacation rentals with Pelotons. Because maybe…

Yes you can.In fact, I’ve learned that subscription boxes can help you for all sorts of occasions. Did you know that there are shoe subscription boxes? There are also sock subscription boxes, loungewear or lingerie…
During Summer 2022, when there was one of the newest Peloton programs called “Get Hooked: Peloton Boxing,” I gave it a whirl. Then last year, when we received our Peloton Row, I went through two Peloton programs about learning to Row. Since getting our Peloton bike in 2016, I’ve always followed the programs when learning…
