Mom Central was invited to a press event by Cooper Tires. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
Last week, I was driving along the freeway with all three Ms (my boys all have M names) in the car. I wasn’t following too closely, I had my eyes on the road, and both hands on the wheel. I was doing everything right, and we were all buckled in safely. All of a sudden, the cars in front of me started swerving to get out of the way of something in the road. Before I could think, the tangled, five-foot-long piece of metal that would certainly annihilate my car if I drove over it was in front of me. I had just enough time to swerve to the left and missed the object by inches.
I swerved right back into my lane. The whole incident happened in less than 10 seconds. My boys were a bit freaked out, but we were all grateful no one was hurt and the situation wasn’t 10 times worse.

I love working with vegetarians! When TX Bar Organics contacted our vegetarian business development team in Mom Central’s New York office, they knew the opportunity to review their 100% grass-fed, organic beef would certainly appeal to one of our Boston office carnivores. Lucky me! A 10 ounce bone-in rib eye, a six ounce New York strip and four quarter-pound beef patties arrived frozen in time for my first outdoor grill session of the season.

Having always donated outgrown clothing, I had never thought to donate my bras, often opting instead to toss them out. BreastOasis, a non-profit organization, provides women in shelters with this much-needed undergarment through the donations of new or lightly used bras—a perfect example of women helping women. Since its inaugural year in 2009, 135,000 bras have been collected and donated to battered women’s shelters, teen and rape crisis centers throughout the nation.
For many women, we find ourselves collecting bras that just sit in our dresser drawers—having either outgrown them or shrunk them in the wash—or often just dissatisfied with their fit. BreastOasis makes donating these bras easy. From sending you a certified package envelope to send your gently used bras in, to setting up drop-off locations in various states, donations can be made at your convenience.

Mom Central received samples of Blaze’s Balsamic Glazes in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
I’ve always turned to reduced balsamic vinegar to add delicious bite to otherwise bland foods or dishes—from breakfast eggs to grilled meats. Acetum’s Blaze Balsamic Glazes prove the perfect addition to spice up any dish or salad.
With a variety of flavors ranging from fruity strawberry and fig, to truffle (my personal favorite) and porcini mushroom—blaze glazes boast balsamic flavor with zesty, fresh flavors that add just the right amount of zest to traditional dishes. Preparing a flavorful, gourmet meal proves simple with the help of these ready-made glazes. Their thick consistency makes them perfect for marinating chicken or steak, and adds delicious flavor to a fresh salad as an alternative to heavy dressings.
