Kid-free travel? Yes please! Kelly is headed to a wedding, trying on tangents, and sending all the Carpool moms well-washed car wishes this month. Kelly and Lizz want Sydney and Grayson to think they're cool, but today's millennial word 'brick' might not be the way to do it. If you're trying to impress the younger crowd, though, just whip this one out anytime you need to indicate that something is freezing cold. Kelly's crew is turning into a birthday dinner family—four kid birthdays are just too much. Both gals had a fabulous Mother's Day. Kelly's was simple and sweet and Lizz had brunch with mom, her favorite. Coffee in bed with a little whip cream on top is just the base model luxury that Kelly and Lizz need. In fact, it might just replace the Nespresso machine. The grass grows where you water it. Kelly's applying this fast lane philosophy by growing grass in one little area of her life. Goodwill drop offs, returns that 'make you money', and getting your nails done are just a few little grass growers you could add to your week. Pots and pans you don't have to put away? Yes, please.
