Weekly Chronicles: Disney Edition

Saturday I attended Type A Parent Boot Camp at the Disneyland Hotel. It was a blog conference with a little bit of magic. I’ll share more about it in a separate post but ironically my blog was down virtually all  weekend so IF anyone wanted to take a look at my blog they saw this:

So not fun! The payoff hopefully is a faster site with the new host once we get past these migration issues. Now on to some of my favorites from the blogosphere this past week.

Around the Web

I have one more blog conference for the year and it’s coming up in 10 days. I’ll be at BlogHer for the fifth year in a row. My recap from last year is include in a roundup of perspectives from 17 bloggers at Midlife Boulevard.

Witty, Worried and Wolf brings up the trade-offs many working moms (including myself) experienced including no lemonade at the office.

I’m always looking for new ideas on protein packed snacks. The World According to Eggface shares a dozen and I can’t wait to try the cucumber sandwiches.

The Gracious Pantry has a recipe for clean-eating, low carb tacos I want to try. Add tortillas for family members who aren’t low-carb.

If I wasn’t too lazy, I would use these gluten-free trail mix recipes at Gluten Free Best Friends. They look easy!
