I have to admit that during my pregnancy I've had some pretty ridiculous thoughts:
Why isn't my baby drowning? I mean she is living in water, will she be a fish?
Why does she kick me all the time, am I already a bad mother?
When is she going to come out? Why does she prefer to be inside the dark and creepy womb for all this time?
However, last night won the prize, took the cake, was a 10 out of 10 freak attack.
I woke up to find myself sleeping on my back (a big no, no in the world of 9 mos pregnant women) and had a moment of panic which lead to a total freak out.
I always knew that there were secrets about pregnancy that even your worst enemy would not tell you.
I once had a girlfriend summarize birth as 'just turn around and walk into the hospital backwards, that's all you need to know about having a baby'.
However, now that I am on the precipice of having my first baby, I have figured out the first secret that my dearest friends have only begun to admit to.... the last month is awful! I realize that mother nature probably made it this way so that we want our babies out as much as they want to get out (wait, I hear they don't want to come out and are pretty pissed off when they do.)
No one warned me when I was an innocent, naive and joyous newly expecting mommy that things would look or feel like this! Where were all those truth telling friends of mine? I assume that they were just trying to shelter my happiness from the realities of pregnancy.
I have found it refreshing that there are still some decent people out there in the world that are more than happy to help out a pregnant woman. My experience reveals that the greatest concentration of them exist at Whole Foods in Mill Valley and the lowest concentration reside on any airplane (yes, that includes flight attendants who stand there and stare at you while you try to get your bags up into the storage bin.)
However, there was one ridiculous granola crunching schmuck at a Whole Foods SF who saw me struggling to pick up some candy that had fallen to the floor and instead of offering to help me with the recovery, asked if he could cut in line ahead of me instead. Now that doesn't feel like peace loving, kale eating, Birkenstock wearing behavior.
Oh yeah, and all you gals out there who tell your pregnant sisters that you 'only gained 15 lbs' during your entire pregnancy, guess what, that doesn't help or feel good to anyone (except you of course.)
Focusing, focusing.... back to my initial point, I am on to all you life giving ladies out there. You are so excited when someone new gets pregnant because then you will get one more member of the feet swelling, back aching, stretch marking touting and varicose vain sporting club. I get it, I wouldn't have told me either. But once you are pregnant, what are you going to do about it anyways?
When I complain about the side effects of being pregnant to my mother she asks me 'what did you think was going to happen?' I guess that is the crux of the problem. When I found out I was pregnant I didn't think about me. I thought about the joy of bringing a little person into this world who is full of hope, optimism and joy. Ah, but that seems so long ago (after all, haven't I been pregnant forever by now?)
So ladies, let's have our 'honest moment' now. What else do I need to know about pregnancy or giving birth? What surprises are you all keeping from people like me, birthing virgins? I'm ready to hear it all. Keep nothing back. After all, it is far too late to do anything about it now.
As a kid, one of the best parts of getting out of school each day was the 'After School Snack' awaiting at home. I have to admit that I didn't always pick the healthiest of snacks, Spaghetti O's was always one of my favorites. Of course, apples and peanut butter was always a close second (just in case my mother comes across this blog.)
However, today there are just so many more options for healthy snacking. We all know it is important for kids to have a mid afternoon nutritional snack to keep their energy and focus going until dinner time. Yet, how do you pick a 'snack' that is more than a 'treat' (think high in sugar and fat) that makes both parent and child happy?
Here are 10 great healthy snack recipes, courtesy of Everyday Health that are fun to eat and help boost kids’ nutrition:
As the new school year creeps closer, we at Honeys &Heroes always realize how fortunate we are to have such nice things to wear and wonderful schools to attend.
Unfortunately, not all kids are as lucky. They don't get new clothes or new shoes to wear every year. In fact, many kids in our community don't even have homes to return to everyday.
That's why this year we are thrilled to be helping out the community with our 'Back-To-School Cool' clothing drive. All clothes donated at the Palo Alto store location will be donated to Palo Alto's Shelter Network.
"The Shelter Network is committed to providing housing and support services that create opportunities for homeless families and individuals to re-establish self-sufficiency and to return to permanent homes of their own. The Shelter Network operates thirteen programs, has more than 50 full-time staff, and thousands of volunteers. The Shelter Network is the Peninsula's principal provider of housing and support for homeless families and individuals."
This season we are offering you a chance to help Honeys & Heroes help those kids at The Shelter Network. From August 15th to September 15th, when you drop off your 'gently used' clothes at Honeys & Heroes we will happily give you 15% OFF on your Back-To-School shopping purchase.
Come on, we know there are things in your closet that you never wear or have outgrown. Why not take this opportunity to clean out your wardrobe and help other less fortunate kids in your community while you do it!
Make it a competition and challenge your friends and neighbors to a 'Back-To-School Cool' competition. Which one of you can donate the most?
For those customers who do not live locally, please post a picture of you donating to a local organization on our Facebook page and we will send you a special coupon to use online to receive your 15% discount.
Help all kids go 'Back-To-School Cool' this year!
Thanks in advance for your contributions,
The Team At Honeys & Heroes
As much as I loved summer camp as a kid, I never would have thought there would be something as glorious as being able to go to fashion camp.
Luckily for the girls and guys out there today who love fashion and design, these camps now exist.
A recent article in the NY Times talks about what is probably the greatest hands on fashion camp around, Fashion Camp NYC. This 5 day program in the heart of New York's fashion district offers their campers the most hands on experience for those youths who know they want a career in fashion.
There are many other programs throughout the country that are less expensive and more convenient as well. Just a few minutes of research will find you programs in Texas, Colorado, California, Washington and more...
Why send your daughter or son to fashion camp? There are multiple reasons. Personally I believe that fashion is one of the first places that a child learns to define their own unique personality. As we see in the store everyday, kids love to try new styles and looks to figure out what suits them best.
Boys love trying new accessories like our forever popular Gunnar Fedora by Quiksilver. I can't tell you how man guys have fallen in love with this hat and begged their mother's to buy it for them.
Girls, especially in the size 7 to 14 range often need to spend extra time trying on multiple outfits to figure out what is best on their ever changing bodies. This trial and discovery period helps them to not only feel comfortable with themselves but also explore sides of their personalities that have yet to be discovered.
So, for all those 'nay sayers' out there who think that fashion and fashion camps are a waste of time, I would say wrong! Let your little loved one enjoy design and fashion and be sure to get out of their way while they do it. The confidence and pride that kids develop when they are excited and comfortable in what they are wearing pays off in spades. They become more confident, happier and even a bit more independent.
If you don't believe me, come and hang out with us at Honeys & Heroes one afternoon and witness it for yourself.
As a kid who loved summer camp more than anything, my whole school year was spent dreaming of the day I got to climb back on the bus and head off to Skylake Yosemite Camp for the summer.
As I help kids in our store to stock up for summer every year, I always become nostalgic for the many days I spent at Bass Lake and all the special friends I made over my many years at camp.
Of course it also helped that camp meant the only time I would be served Pop Tarts for breakfast and tatter tots for dinner (much better than granola and broccoli when you are 8 years old.)
However, one of my favorite things about camp were the nights by the campfire when we made S'mores. Nothing beat hunting for that perfect stick to roast your gooey marshmallow on.
I was never patient enough to get that perfect golden brown crust on my marshmallow. Instead, mine always ended up burnt to a crisp, but who really cared, it was all about sticking the gooey inside into a sandwich made of graham crackers and chocolate.
So, for all of you summer camp loving 'kids at heart' out there, here are some of my favorite S'more recipes for you to try this summer. All taste fantastic whether your marshmallow is roasted to a golden glow or charred to perfection!
As we sit here in our lovely air conditioned store and watch all the kids run around in their summer gear, we are reminded of our childhood and the things we loved most about being a kid in the summer time. Perhaps some of the things on our list will bring a smile to your face as it did ours.

Of course the absolute worse thing about summer is going back to school. But who wants to think about that when the sun is shining and the days are full of freedom.
Please share with us your 'favorite things about summer' we'd love to hear what made your childhood summers so memorable.
1. There are almost as many noises come out of your bottom as your top.
2. Your brain thinks it is working but seems to be misfiring without you even realizing... like using your remote control as your cell phone.
3. You walk by store windows and wonder if you will ever be able to wear something with a waist again.
4. You wonder why your husband can't understand why frozen yogurt and Pop Chips don't make a balanced meal... hey there is some dairy and a tiny bit of vegetable somewhere in this diet plan.
5. Your overly sensitive sense of smell kicks in. Everyone at the gym has that sweaty 'haven't washed my clothes in 2 workouts smell'...disgusting!
6. Getting dressed is the hardest part of the day... what will fit today?? Bye-bye favorite jeans.
7. Realizing every morning is it's own adventure. Will I be sick? Will I be nauseous? Will I need prune juice? How big will I be when I wake-up?
8. You can't stop wondering about that little miracle growing inside of you. What will he/she look like? Will he/she look like you or your husband/partner? Why does he/she kick all night? Why can't he/she sleep when you are sleeping? Why did you just kick me in the ribs?
9. Your mother keeps asking you to register somewhere... anywhere! What's the big deal? My child will be here for a long time, you can always buy him/her something later on, like a college education!
10. The weeks turn into months and the months turn into years. Why do these 40 weeks feel like the longest weeks of my life? Oh yeah, so I can suffer through, I mean cherish, every moment of being pregnant.
The time has come for me to make my big announcement. I will be having a baby girl this Fall. Yippee!
While having a baby is exciting, there is only so much you can do that bonds you to your baby before they arrive.
As a result, I've chosen to focus all my maternal (or burgeoning maternal) excitement into making the coolest room possible for my little Yum Yum.
My vision for her room is to make it stylish and unexpected, but not too mature or bizarre. Make it fun and youthful but not too sweet and cliche.
I want it to be a room that we can all enjoy hanging out in but not have that ornate and over the top '1st baby' feeling.
Unfortunately, I'm sure she won't care a bit about how I hard I struggled over the perfect paint color or how I scoured the Alameda swap meet to find that perfect dresser. However, I believe that since this is the first real introduction to my baby, I want her room to convey her parents (by 'parents' I mean me) personality and style.
So far I've spent countless hours scouring the internet for ideas but I have found the best inspiration in Susanna Salk's book, "For Room for Children: Stylish Spaces for Sleep and Play, (Rizzoli, April 2010). This book is full of inspirational ideas for nurseries through teen bedrooms. I love the modern farmhouse look nursery not necessarily for the 'farmhouse' but because it shows how a room can be young and charming while feeling cool and not too babyish. This room can easily be transformed into a kids or young adults room as a child grows.
Another fun idea that I am in love with came from this image from the Pottery Barn Kids website, http://www.potterybarnkids.

Last week Honeys & Heroes had the first meeting of our ‘Style Advisory Board’. This board is made up of young girls (otherwise known as ‘Tweens’) ages 8-13 who are creative and love fashion.
We gathered in the store after closing for some food, chit chat and fun. While none of us knew exactly what to expect from the experience, we can assure you that a good time was had by all.
There was so much to learn from our ‘Tween’ board. The girls talked to us about their love of surfing online, shopping dreams and fashion preferences. Boy, did these girls have a lot to say!
After we were done with the pizza and ‘girl talk,’ we had a blast creating personalized tote bags. It was so much fun to watch how creative the gals got. Some drew on their bags graffiti style while others preferred our ‘bling’ machine and went crazy with the decals.
The girls were also able to spend time trying on clothes and putting together their favorite outfits. It was fun to see what they looks created for themselves. Guaranteed, each girl has her own special style.
We ended the evening with some yummy cupcakes and a smile.
If you or someone you know, ages 8-13, might be interested in joining us for our next ‘Style Advisory Board’ meeting. Please email us at customerservice@
We’d love to meet your fashionista !
Who doesn't love to see their kids looking stylish and sharp? We all appreciate a fun dress, a hip graphic tee and of course a fedora or beret to complete their unique look.
However, as much as I love clothes, there is one part of an outfit that can easily get overlooked, the shoes.
After being around kids shoes for the last 8 years, I have come to realize that getting the fit right is essential. I have learned there are several important elements to fit that can be easily overlooked. Unfortunately, there are many children shoe stores out there that don't provide the sufficient training to their employees to insure that they are fitting your child properly.
Here are some of my favorite tips that I have gathered over the years. Hopefully these will help you be sure that your child is walking out of the shoe store with most appropriate shoe for their age and the best possible fit.
· Wait until your child starts walking to buy them shoes. There is no need to jump start the process. In an ideal world we'd all go barefoot for the first 3 years. Unfortunately, since we all don't live on deserted beaches where there is no rubbage, I suggest wearing Nowalis at this stage of development. They are soft soled, comfortable and they won't kick off their feet.
· Once your child starts walking, make sure you put them in a shoe that is light weight and has a flexible sole. This combination will insure happy and healthy foot growth. Remember, baby and toddler feet sweat more than adult so it is especially important to put them in either natural or very breathable shoes during the early years.
· Every time you go to buy a pair of shoes, have your child fitted. Not all salespersons know how to measure correctly! (Amazing but true.) Having them fitted at different shoe stores will give you confirmation of the correct shoe size. In the first 3 years of their life, a child's foot averages a .5 inches of growth every 3 months. Your child will grow out of their shoes quickly so be proactive about monitoring their growth. At this young age, they are not always verbal enough to let you know that their shoes are too small or too tight.
· When trying on shoes, make sure your child always stands up right and puts both feet side by side. Sitting down or leaning to one side can dramatically change the fit of a shoe. Numerous children think their shoes don't fit properly until they are standing up straight... it's a miracle!
· Shoes should never be handed-down: just because they fit one child well, doesn't mean that they'll work for another, not to mention that it is not a hygienic practice.
· Always have your child try on both shoes. Feet come in different shapes and sizes, even when they belong to the same person. Different brands are sized very differently. Don’t’ assume just because a size 8 fits in one brand doesn’t necessarily mean it will translate to another brand.
· Be sure to have one great (not just good) pair of sneakers. These are the shoes that your child will wear everyday. Poor quality shoes will not be supportive or last long once your little playground romper starts bouncing around.
· Don't wait too long to get them to learn to tie their laces. The invasion of velcro in the kids shoe market has resulted in way too many youths avoiding the inevitable task of learning how to tie their shoe laces. Do not let this be your child! You had to learn at an early age and so should they. After a certain size, all the cool shoes have laces.
· A good pair of sandals is invaluable. I love Keens because they are all weather and all terrain.
· For older kids, if a shoe doesn't fit exactly, you can always go to your local drugstore and pick up some shoe inserts. (Flats for girls are notoriously hard to fit but can be easily adjusted with a little help from Dr. Scholls.) They are the easiest and cheapest way to make the minor adjustments that are sometimes necessary.
· Lastly, a quick jog, hop or skip around the shoe store will speak volumes. Right away you will be able to tell if your child is comfortable, the shoe is staying on and if they like, love or hate the shoe. No use in buying something they won't wear. Remember, no returning worn shoes.
When I think back on my childhood one of my favorite activities was cooking in the kitchen with my mom.
Actually, I could have skipped the cooking and gone straight to baking.
My skills started off small (Rice Krispy Treats) but by my tweens I was pulling off some amazing cakes and innovative cookie recipes.
I believe spending time in the kitchen teaching your child to bake is invaluable. Not only is it a great opportunity to spend some 'quality time' together, it is also a place to learn things like math (what is a teaspoon vs a tablespoon ?), reading (can't screw up those baking directions or you will have a messy disaster on you hands) and self-control (don't eat the entire batter or there will be nothing left to bake...such a sad lesson to learn.)
One of my favorite things to make were muffins. Muffins are both a breakfast staple and a great afternoon snack. They take practically not time to make and homemade muffins are always more healthy than those big heavy ones you buy at the store.
Please enjoy one of my favorite muffin recipes. It is easy and fun to make with your kids. It's up to you whether you want to add nuts... but I prefer straight bananas and chocolate chips. Yum Yum!
Enjoy!
OK- I know I'm late to the game but I just discovered Sibby's cupcakes in San Mateo. (Don't laugh, I'm not a cupcake person and I live in San Francisco.)
As a birthday request for Lizzie, I made a special trip to Sibby's to pick up her dream cupcakes.
It took me a couple attempts with my GPS to actually find the location but once I was there and walked into their 'store front', my eyes almost popped out of my head. Not only was the bakery wafting with delectable smells but the cupcakes looked delicious.
The nice gals working there politely asked me my name for my order..... WHAT ORDER???? Somehow in all the birthday excitement no one told me that Sibby's is a pre-order only bakery. My heart suddenly broke in two because not only did I now desperately want to try one of these gems, but I also wanted to surprise the birthday girl.
As my smile turned to a disappointed frown (were those tears in my eyes?), the employees quickly came to my aid and asked how many I wanted. When I told them that four was all I needed, they quickly stepped up and offered to help me by selling me some of their over flow.
Ahhhhh (can you hear the music?), the heavens opened and the sun shined through once again. I gladly accepted the four of any flavor and thanked them profusely.
Having been in the customer service industry for the majority of my adult life, I still always find it amazing when someone elevates them self and goes out of their way to help a customer in need. I have been witness to so many awful customer experiences (of course there are some customers who bring it on themselves) and in comparison so few wonderful ones.
I was more than ready to walk out of Sibby's empty handed. I own my actions and it was definitely my naive fault that I did not pre-order. However, the wonderful feeling I felt when the employees at Sibby's saved my tushie and sold me the four cupcakes instantly made me a loyal client to their business.
The point is, all it takes is a little bit of extra effort to change a negative customer experience into a positive one. Why don't more people realize this fact?
In the end, the cupcakes were wonderful, Lizzie was thrilled and I have already told 3 friends who live in San Francisco about these cupcakes.
Thanks Sibbys!
Do you know a girl ages 7 to 13 (a Tween') who loves fashion? If so, please send her our way so she can join Honeys & Heroe's new 'Style Advisory Board'. This group of savvy and stylish young gals will meet quarterly at Honeys & Heroes for an evening of chit chat, fun and fashion.
At these meetings we hope to get honest feedback about what Tweens are looking for in fashion, what is missing in the market place and how we at Honeys & Heroes can be the best 'Tween' store around.
Our first meeting is this May, 2011.
Please contact us at 650-326-1899 or Alanna@HoneysandHeroes.com so that we may include your stylish gal on our team.
Do you like to read? How about your kids? Are they fans of reading?? If so, we have found a wonderful organization to introduce you to, Reading is Freedom. Reading is Freedom is focused on helping children in East Palo Alto, CA improve their reading skills and develop a love of reading during their elementary school years. According to research conducted by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, 6.6 million low-income children in the US, ages 8 and below, are at risk of failing to graduate from high school because they won’t be proficient readers by the end of third grade. Reading is Freedom was founded in 2010 to help reverse this trend. The organization matches adult volunteers with students at Brentwood Academy Elementary School. The students and their reading partners spend at least one hour per week during the after school program reading together. Reading is Freedom is recruiting additional volunteers. For more information about Reading is Freedom, please contact Maren Christensen at marenjc@yahoo.com.
Have you ever shopped on Milo.com? Neither had we until a couple weeks ago. We were introduced to Milo by a good friend of H&H. He suggested we get ourselves on their site because it is the shopping vehicle of the future. Milo is local shopping made easy. They search your local store shelves in real-time to find the best prices and availability for the products you want to have—right now. That way, you can find everything in your area and not have to wait for shipping. We love it!
Milo shows you what's in-stock where, and tells you how much it costs at that very moment. They also offer detailed product information and user reviews, so you can be confident you're getting a product that fits your needs. In short, they make it easy to access the best of both online and offline shopping worlds—all in one place.
Milo was recently purchased by eBay so you know these guys are serious.
Check it out yourselves at Milo.com. If nothing else, their dog is sure a cutie!
I don't mean to be obsessing about earthquakes but after receiving this email from my mother this past weekend, I decided it was worthy of sharing with all our friends.
Having grown up in the Bay Area I have had my share of earthquake drills. Now it seems all our 'duck and cover' training might not be the only safe course of action.
As our trusty Gail pointed out, there are some points in this article that the Red Cross disputes. However, both parties agree that the Triangle Of Life is the important and should be taken into consideration given your environment when the earth starts shaking..
Please read both article and draw your own conclusions. Either way, you will end up being more informed and prepared when an Earthquake arrives.

I look at the disaster in Japan as nothing less than a major wake-up call for all of us in California. We need to take what happened in Japan seriously and get ourselves prepared for our disaster. As much as we like to ignore or deny the facts, we are destined for some sort of trembler.
While some of us are lucky enough to live in modern up to code buildings, there are plenty of others who reside in beautiful and historically older structures. Realizing that my 1927 building may not be totally up to surviving the 'Big One', I decided this past weekend that I needed to get my family prepared. I have heard the wake-up call and I am finally listening. Luckily for me, it is not too late. However, I believe that if at this moment we don't take the steps to get prepared, we may all pay the price when the big shaker comes.
Therefore, I am taking time in this week's blog to provide some recommendations and leads that will help all of us prepare for an emergency.
I have scoured the internet for the best lists (in my opinion) of what makes up an optimal Earthquake Preparedness Kit. While there are plenty of websites out there willing to sell you a survival kit, I believe that the best kit is the one made by YOU your family. This way it can be tailored to your specific needs and requirements.
The Essentials: Water, Food, First Aid Supplies, Extra Clothes, Blankets, Shoes, Flashlights, Important Documents and Sanitation Supplies are a must. Make sure you pack a supply of any medications that may be specific to your family.
This article from the SF Gate gives a comprehensive breakdown of each of these categories:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/earthquakes/archive/ready.dtl&ao=all
For an interactive site that helps you prepare for everything, from your dogs to your gas range check out 72Hours: http://72hours.org/index.html
This interactive site took a little of the stress out of the preparedness process and allowed me to be more specific as to the needs of my family.
Lastly, the most comprehensive and dare I say retentive list I found was 'Equipped to Survive':
http://www.equipped.com/earthqk.htm
This list includes things like mosquito nets and pocket chainsaws. It may be a little overboard but better safe than sorry.
I highly recommend that you review all 3 sites and create a kit of your own based on all the recommendations.
Store your Survival Kit in a plastic container in your basement or somewhere accessible in case of an emergency. The plastic container will keep the rodents from getting inside as well as water or moisture from getting in.
Most importantly, remember to update your kit once a year with fresh supplies. Remember, medicine and food go bad. It would be a calamity if you went to retrieve your kit only to find that the food went bad and your asthma medicine has expired.
I hope this not so exciting or fun email helps someone out there get a little more prepared for a disaster. Of course you know how these things work, the more prepared you are, the less chance of anything happening.

We are so lucky to have a wonderful store to work at everyday and homes to go to every night but lately, the gals at Honeys & Heroes have been feeling like we are missing something. We see so many happy dogs come through our store each day that we have begun to wonder if H&H needs its own loving pet. Shall we say, our own 'Honey' or 'Hero'.
