Winging to Winnipeg

Friday, October 1st, 2010

I’m going to be heading out to my old home town, Winnipeg in October, where I’m proud to be receiving a spot on my high school’s Wall of Fame.  (Yes, my children did ask what it was I was supposed to be famous for. They’re not coming with me.)

While I’m there, I’ll be stopping into BreakfastTelevision on Friday, October 8th, to talk with the lovely Pay Chen about Shut Up and Eat and tackling Mom’s biggest school year nemesis – the dreaded School Lunch Box. Tune in if you live in the are.

Picture This

It’s been a few weeks since my launch party for Shut Up and Eat, and frankly I’m still getting over the whole “I’m not at a party that’s all about me?” feeling.  Luckily, I have some very cool friends who caught the whole wonderful experience on video, and in pictures.

If you didn’t make the party – first of all, start planning for the next one (I’m writing! I’m writing!), and secondly, check out the video on Erica Ehm’s Yummy Mummy Club site.  While you’re there, check out all her other fabulous features and bloggers too – many of whom came to my launch, and who share their secrets for getting their kids to Shut up and eat, too.
