Cyber Monday emails have nothing on...
Fashion newsletters
Beauty product launches
Charity partnership projects
CES invitations
Publicists are maniac emailers! My inbox is like this daily. I’ll tell you, probably one out of every 50 gets posted because there is so much crap out there.
Two new fashion blogs emailed me today that have gotten notable press, but neither function properly and both are built on templates. So...
There's no denying Christmas is here...
I’m not a Scrooge, I just don’t have much to get excited about.
During the last year, I’ve spent time with my family and high school friends, attended local events, and eaten at Carrabba’s more than I have in the last decade.
My favorite part of the holiday is actually finding gifts I know people will love. The budget this year is slim which makes it not only not as...
Can you repeat that please?
Friend/Family: So when is the new MoreThanMary launching? Me: When the programmer finishes. F/F: When is that? Me: Whenever he’s done. F/F: Oh.
Sorry it’s taking so long! The real reason the new design has taken forever is the fact that I didn’t want to just throw something up I didn’t love. This new design is more me and reflects a lot of the feedback I got from you...
Wherever you go, you can take fitness with you.
Fitness, is also a state mind, so you don’t NEED a gym to continue your training. Cheesy I know, but very true.
I’ll admit that finding a workout while traveling you have to be inventive and motivated. Not easy while on the road and you’re tired from other activities. It’s easy to say, “the hotel gym stinks” or “I don’t have time,” but...
P.S.
I’m thankful to not have wifi today.
My gift to you this holiday season.
After all of the requests for Papa’s ham sauce and my chocolate pie, I’ve decided to post my favorite family secret recipes in time for Christmas dinners. Spread the sugar right?!
It will be my gift to you and your family. I’m over gift guides. The key to gift giving is putting thought into it, not the price tag or what’s trendy.
Look forward to: Grandma Harper’s...

Family Traditions: Thanksgiving Edition
With the exception of one, every Thanksgiving, my mom and I have traveled to South Texas (where she is from) to spend the holiday with my grandparents and my grandmother’s family. Unfortunately she passed away over a decade ago, but we still gather together to celebrate.
The comfort in my family and our rituals is one of the things I have been most thankful for my whole life.
So, if...
For me, it's the shower.
When I created the “C.L.I.C.K.” bag concept and the name Moe, I was in my Weho apartment taking a shower.
I thought it was fluke, but ever since, I’ve come up with some really unique concepts while in the shower.
It’s not like I get in with the intention of brainstorming, but for some reason, my mind wanders with the running water. Then BAM - brilliant idea! Ok,...

Core condundrum: basic setup, challenging...
Being friends with a trainer is always beneficial and frustrating. He throws out these seemingly simple exercises that end up kicking my butt. But! He will be the first to tell you that I’m the one who keeps him going in our workouts.
Here is our ab exercise today - Straight leg crunches.
15 reps per position.
IT’S CRUCIAL YOU KEEP YOUR CORE ENGAGED AND BACK FLAT ON THE FLOOR.

A truly herbal rub down

Great idea for an at-home massage! Use unscented oil and fresh herbs.
Who knew our favorite herbs - rosemary, thyme, and basil - are not just for cooking. In my pre- facial foot bath at the Capella Pedregal Spa, Rosie is...
