In March 2010 something exciting happened to me...
I'm a Macaroni Kid Publishing Mom!
What's Macaroni Kid about, you ask?
Well, it's really exciting... It's a group of moms who come together on MacaroniKid.com and each of us publishes a family-focused newsletter for our specific region.
It really is your own business, so you can barter advertising space for classes for your kids, or you can run your newsletter like a formal newsletter and charge for ad space. Best of all, you really are providing a service to parents in your own community.
So whether you're looking for activities to get the kids out of the house or craft ideas to keep them occupied while indoors, whether you're looking for activities close to you, or family-friendly fun when visiting a new town, you really need look no further than MacaroniKid.com - for moms, by moms.
Nicki, Joyce and Eric founded Macaroni Kid and we've already been featured on BNET.com.
They are 100% supportive, as is the entire group of Publisher Moms. Check me out here where I'm loving it - http://trinidad.macaronikid.com.
Over 600 Facebook Fans and Subscribers in less than 2 months! And that's just for Trinidad!
Don't see your town? Maybe you should consider becoming a Macaroni Kid mom! For more information email Nicki at nicki {at} macaronikid.com and tell Nicole from Trinidad sent you!

In other announcements! My mother is soooo talented!
Ok, she would never say that about herself, and she's probably blushing right now! But let's let you be the judge...
This is a photo of my cousin's daughter. My mom did a digital painting of the photo (bottom right) and created the masterpiece on the left. Painted, people. Like brushstrokes and dipping into colour pots... Just using your mouse pointer instead of a paintbrush!
How talented is this woman?!
After years and years of encouragement, she's finally taken the leap of faith and started her own little business (this month!).
She does photography (bridal, portraits, etc) and she does wonders with photographs and images like that little number up there.
If you're interested in her doing some work based on your photos for you, or if you're in the Columbus/Tupelo region of Mississippi and want some photography done, email me at
and I'll send you all her contact details so you can talk business. :-)
And even if you're not looking to hire her, leave her a comment below letting her know what you think about her work. I think she thinks I'm just saying it cos I'm her daughter... ;-)
