USA: Cooking with Kids

Ewa Samples — Fri, 13 May 2016 05:00:57 +0000

Cooking with kids is one of my favorite activities. I have to admit, I don’t do it often enough. Mostly because of the limited space in our kitchen where two is a crowd. My parents would let us kids into the kitchen as often as they could. We were cooking family dinners at very young […]

USA: Call me MOMPRENEUR, I don’t mind.

Ewa Samples — Fri, 04 Dec 2015 06:00:00 +0000

Sometime ago, I opened my email and saw this subject line in my inbox: “Mompreneur. Worst word ever.” At first it made me kind of irritated, and I almost moved that email to the trash without reading it. Then I actually read it. I wanted to see who and why would say that a word that […]

CALIFORNIA, USA: When “Beauty” Products are Killing Us

Ewa Samples — Fri, 20 Jun 2014 05:00:01 +0000

Four years ago I bought my last body lotion and body wash. Two years ago, for several months I went “no-poo”. Around that time I also threw all my deodorants in a trash can. The only thing I have gotten back to is the shampoo. I do, though, try to make it myself every now […]

CALIFORNIA, USA: Time flies by so fast; Let’s cherish what’s NOW

Ewa Samples — Fri, 21 Mar 2014 05:00:51 +0000

All parents agree, once their first child came into their lives, everything changed. Our life routine changed, some of our friends changed, our clean house no longer stayed clean, the term “empty laundry basket” became an abstract thing, our plans for the future changed…even some of our dreams. We no longer sleep, we no longer […]

CALIFORNIA, USA: Homemade Gift Idea – Coconut Oil Body Butter

Ewa Samples — Fri, 20 Dec 2013 06:00:40 +0000

Christmas is around the corner and some of us are panicking about last minute gifts. Sometimes we don’t have the time to get gifts. Sometimes we don’t want to go shopping because we don’t like the crowds elbowing around the mall, all looking for a good deal. Sometimes we simply don’t have a clue what […]

CALIFORNIA, USA: I could have been anything, but I am a mother first

Ewa Samples — Fri, 06 Sep 2013 05:00:52 +0000

I am a wife. I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am an aunt. I am a friend. I am a blogger. I am a photographer. I am a glass half empty. I am Polish, I am an expat, I am a coffee lover, and I am more than that… I might have […]

CALIFORNIA, USA: Family + Puppy = Happiness?

Ewa Samples — Fri, 12 Jul 2013 05:00:29 +0000

A few months ago, while waiting in our laundry room, I saw some magazines left on the table. I picked one of them and started flipping through. Being in a not so very happy period of my life, one article drew my attention: Give yourself a happiness makeover. Beneath the title: Longevity expert, Dan Buettner […]

As many of you know, my passion for taking pictures is tremendous. For the last year there wasn’t a day in which I didn’t take at least one picture. I decided to put my passion to work by opening a photography business. I haven’t been this excited in many, many months! The idea of me […]

POLAND: (Self)Portrait of a mother(hood)

Ewa Samples — Tue, 04 Sep 2012 21:00:46 +0000

A few months ago, my parents had their 45th wedding anniversary. Our gift to them was a photo book. In this one book, my sister (as she was responsible for putting it all together) was able to squeeze almost their entire life and the most important events from their kids lives: our baptisms, our 1st […]
