The school year is winding down all over the country. The temperature is rising. Are you ready, moms?
I reached a near panic the other day when I realized my kids would soon be out of school, with plenty of free time to fill. While they may prefer hours in front of the TV, I am determined to fill their summer with activities- preferably the free or cheap kind!

Have you discovered Groupon? I recently joined Groupon myself and am amazed by the money saving potential this site has to offer. Basically, Groupon features something new each day in select cities at an unbeatable price. It may be a hot restaurant deal, or something fun to do or see with your family.
Often, these prices are too good to be true! But they are actual prices, at deep discounts thanks to the collective buying power of Groupon's thousands of members.

Between scheduling doctor's appointments, paying bills, and re-connecting with old flames on Facebook (ok, so it was Billy Murphy from the 4th grade- you minx, you!), it may feel like one more thing online is the last thing you need in your life.
But moms are turning to Twitter in ever-increasing numbers for a quick hit of connection, often with strangers who they may never meet in real life, but with whom they might share a common interest or merely a passing "tweet," or update, in 140 characters or fewer.

Renee Zellweger, Rachel Roy, Hilary Rhoda (in Rachel Roy), Sienna Miller and Alexa Chung hit up the premiere of The September Issue, the new Vogue/Anna Wintour documentary. Those are some interesting looks! We love Hilary's Rachel Roy dress, but what's going on with those shoes??

I’m not sure there has ever been a more successful product placement than the Kids Crooked Houses, as seen on Jon & Kate Plus Eight. The Kids Crooked House company has received an overwhelming amount of PR and orders after being featured on TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8’s much anticipated episode this past summer, in which the couple announced the sad news of their pending divorce. I didn’t even watch the episode but heard about the Crooked Houses.
