Meet Group Leaders Christine and Sandy!
Christine Koh is a music and brain scientist turned writer, editor, and designer. She spent a decade in academia and was about to become a professor when she decided to hang up her academic spurs in favor of more flexible and creative ventures. Christine is the founder and editor of Boston Mamas, a stylish resource portal for families in Boston and beyond, and is the self-taught designer behind Posh Peacock. Christine also is a freelance writer and editor and recently started a third blog – Pop Discourse – where she gives voice to her fascination with pop culture, the intellectually interesting or absurd, Boston life, and parenthood. She lives in the Boston area with her husband and 4-year-old daughter. Christine tweets at @bostonmamas.
Sandy Lee is a self-proclaimed typical career mom turned work-at-home, turned stay-at-home. For years she worked as a traveling neonatal nurse; moving, holding patients and especially her bladder for endless stretches of time. Now she's finally unpacked my bags in Boston, and occasionally uses her stethoscope to plug her ears as a stay-at-home mom. Tune in to her daily episodic nonsense at Momisodes.com. You may laugh. You may cry. You may even point and stare. Some days you just may do all three!

Simplifying the Holidays: The Little Black Dress, Five Ways
Audrey McClelland of Mom Generations is one of these women who is insanely busy and has a bajillion people in her life, but when you’re with her, you know you have her warm and loving undivided attention; she's a wonderful friend and I feel so fortunate that we overlap with some regularity at blogger events (I'm also sort of hoping Laurel marries one of her lovely sons someday...). Audrey’s charisma and keen eye for style have transformed her into a top fashion blogger, and I’m thrilled that today – for the third in my Simplifying the Holidays guest blog series – Audrey shares ideas for getting the most mileage out of your favorite little black dress.
Fruit Salad For Your Face
Though I’m not worried about aging per se, at some point during the last decade I started listening to my mother’s advice to stop sunning and start taking better care of my skin. I’ve heard a lot of people extol the virtues of Arbonne (including a few girlfriends with lovely, creamy skin...), but it wasn’t until late in the summer that I started using Arbonne FC5 products, thanks to Michelle Lenaghan. Read on for my thoughts about Arbonne’s FC5 facial care products, as well as for information on how to get free samples and a great shopping discount.
Road Dogging with Puppies
A few weeks ago I experienced a rather unusual night of party hopping that included seeing John Ondrasik (aka. Five for Fighting) live at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston. In addition to being utterly moved by the musical experience itself, I also was touched by John’s clear love for his family (exemplified when he explained the inspiration for various songs). Thanks to the lovely Barbara Jones, I met John after the show, at which time he kindly offered to pen a guest blog post on Boston Mamas. In particular, I was curious about John’s best strategies for staying connected with his family while on the road; an issue I discuss with many parents who travel for work. Read on for John's advice on this topic:

Hi Boston Mamas,
Bring your children to see the film that your mother brought you to. Take them on a magical journey down the yellow brick road with Dorothy, her little dog Toto and their unforgettable friends as they come alive on the big screen one last time in The Wizard of Oz 70th Anniversary Encore Event.
Because the first broadcast event in September was such a success, NCM Fathom, Warner Home Video and Turner Classic Movies have decided to hold a special encore presentation of this exclusive big screen event on Tuesday, November 17th at 6:30 p.m. local time in 324 select movie theaters.
Prior to the feature presentation, film historian and host of Turner Classic Movies, Robert Osborne, will share facts and stories about The Wizard of Oz. You will also be given an exclusive chance to see archival interviews, behind-the-scenes footage and rare musical outtakes.

Thanks so much for posting the event here Erin! That sounds great.
Hi Sher! So glad to see you here. We moved to the Boston area a little over 2 years ago from California. The adjustment has been shocking to say the least :) Hope to meet you next weekend!

- Hey Sher and Erin, thanks for commenting in! Sher, would be great to meet you next weekend (I'm assuming you are referring to the BlogHer meetup). RE: replying -- the interface is a tad non-intuitive, but to reply to a post you need to: a) be logged in at BlogHer and b) join the group. :-)

- Hi ladies! I'm wondering if I've finally found a group of women I can relate to!? Your blogs rock! I've had 3 major 'adjustments' in the last year. First came the birth of my first son about 11 months ago, which has been a totally wonderful and wacky experience! Next came a move from Baltimore to Boston, where I've been trying to find my way. Finally, I just started blogging! I'd love to come to the Boston Blog Meetup next weekend... but I can't even figure out how to reply to the damn post! My blog is http://expectingwithoutexpectations.blogspot.com. Don't laugh... I'm new at this!
