Full day at work + fussy kids = I need a quick dinner before I lose my mind
In my pantry I had just the right combo for a quick semi-homemade meal - STIR FRY
(chicken, pre-cut veggie mix from TJ's, stir fry sauce (sans the high fructose corn syrup) and some jasmine rice)
This first picture is before the sauce was added - I'm thinking I can do his same mix with pasta or another sauce! It's pretty isn't it?
The picture below is of the finished product (in the pan) - I just added the sauce
For my baby girl I cut the veggies and chicken into bite-sized pieces (smaller than a pea) and served I with the rice. [Note: for a creamier texture for babies between 10 and 12 month place in a mini food processor, then blend and add water until desired consistency is reached]
A yummy dinner in just 25 minutes start to finish! Although I prefer meals made from scratch the truth is that as a working mom I have to plan for times like this and that always trumps most fast-food/takeout options.

Crossbody Bags - Function Meets Fashion for Moms
Crossbody bags have been a mainstay in the "mommy" wardrobe purely based on functionality. Being hands free is a major score when the kids are in tow. One thing has changed though, they are now in STYLE - which means a win-win for mommys!
Whether you choose a petite bag packed with a punch of color, or a large messenger style bag to carry all of your essentials as a mom you are sure to draw attention as a fashion-forward mom!
Here are some of my faves to get you started:
Nordstrom - Marc Jacobs Mini Natasha Flap Bag in Blue
Lord & Taylor - Joelle Hawkins Messenger Bag
Vince Camuto - Christina Crossbody
