Real Simple has a new tv show premiering this Friday, October 17th at 8pm (ET) on TLC.  If you're a fan of the magazine, I am, it'll be interesting to see how they do the lifestyle makeovers each week.  Topics covered will be similar to the mag; like keeping the household running, getting dinner on the table, staying organized, etc, -- with style, of course.

Silicon Valley Mom: My daughter plays me

The Bloggess: Hurricanes, sky diving, orgasms, and a suggestion for protecting our coastlines

Baby Shrink: What am I doing to my baby if I let her watch TV?

Are you tuning in today for the first Bonnie Hunt Show? I think she is HI-larious. I love her sense of humor and down-to-earthiness that is so NOT Hollywierd. I had no idea that she used to be an oncology nurse.

According to The Smart TV Alliance, kid's TV viewing goes up 150 percent in the summer. Now, keeping in mind that the Smart TV Alliance would never actually tell you to turn the damn thing off, because they are, the Smart TV Alliance, not the Smart Book Alliance, or the Smart Go Play Outside Alliance, they're asking for hints of how you get your kids to watch better TV. I'm suggesting making the kids watch 24 straight hours of Hannah Montana with their eyes wedged open like Alex in A Clockwork Orange so that they develop a natural aversion to stupidity.
