Being a "SuperMom" is hard *work*--a full-time mom to 2, a wife, and career woman--where do I find the time to write my own blog?

To quote Jeremy Pepper "I'm semi famous now, in a blog"

An exerpt:

"Now, I am biased toward The Gift List - I have used it, and it has proven its worth to me by landing articles in publications I would have not likely had found, or thought of, to pitch clients and clients' products. But, I also knew of a colleague who had been contemplating using The Gift List and I kept bugging her telling her that she needed to get it.

So, I pinged Katherine Rosin from Kampfire PR. Rosin specializes in entertainment publicity and consumer goods - and was looking at The Gift List for one of her clients.

Via an IM interview the other day ...

Me: you're the one that got gift list media, right?
Rosin: yes
Me: you liking it?
Rosin: yes, it’s fabulous!
Me: cool
Rosin: the list is a great help...as there are some deluxe consumer interest items on there - those who want high end products.

Plus, in talking with Rosin today - after using The Gift List for a week - she's landed a hit in a top women's health publication."

Thanks Jeremy!

Our Name Is Mud Sells Retail Stores
New York — Ceramic and pottery wholesaler Our Name is Mud sold three of its Manhattan-based, do-it-yourself pottery stores to the private equity firm Goode Partners. Our Name Is Mud owners Lorrie and Kip Veasey, and partner John Nelson, will concentrate on the wholesale market while maintaining the company’s fourth retail location, at Grand Central Terminal, in order to test consumer reaction to new product. Launched in 1995, the retail outlets, while successful, were “very customer intensive,” according to Kip Veasey. “We didn’t see doing it long-term.” Veasey also noted that Goode Partners sees an opportunity investing in craft, paint-your-own pottery, and other, mostly independent, children’s entertainment outlets. Goode Partners previously invested in The Children’s Place clothing stores and Tommy Bahama, before taking them public.
