2013 Chevy Malibu - The Grown Up Car!

2013 Chevy Malibu - The Grown Up Car!
Last month, I had the amazing opportunity to drive the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia in the new 2013 Chevy Malibu.  F-A-B.  Keep in mind, I am the small, hatchback queen.  My wheels have always been low to the ground and small.  Returning from a few days behind the wheel of the Malibu have left me singing the clown song from the circus every time I get in my go-kart car.  What I Liked!I loved how the car handled.  So smooth.  You can't tell whether you're driving 50 or 150 km/h.  Just so smooth.  My car starts to shake past...

I love my husband.He is a good man and an amazing father and if I had to do it all over again I'd choose him in an instant. One of the things I love most? Traveling with him fits me like a glove. We've been together for over 20 years and over that time we've found a rhythm that works well for us on the road. For example: Years of travel - including our most recent one away - have taught us that when it comes to road trips, our marriage is best suited when we have a driver and... More »

What's cooler than a mom in a minivan?Five moms in a minivan!This past weekend we loaded up the Dodge Grand Caravan for an epic road trip to a weekend retreat with some of my closest girlfriends.

The ride was smooth and fast as we left our kids behind, looking forward to a little getaway together, filled with time to let loose, recharge and rest.The van was a hit with all the ladies...

Open Sesame!
Three backpacks, a diaper bag, a gigantic purse, a briefcase, a travel mug and a toddler on my hip. That's what I carry to my van, in one fell swoop, each morning. (This photo is staged. Normally I am hauling double the gear.)The Dodge Grand Caravan has this amazing feature that makes my experience as a mule so much easier: with the touch of a button, the hatch opens up, meaning I don't have to set down the 36 bags of gear I'm toting before loading them into the van.Open Sesame!It might not seem like much, but every little luxury really...

Who needs a lift? I've got room.
I have an overwhelming urge to buy a table. Not just any table but a long one. Or one that comes in multiple boxes. If not a table then I want to carpool. I want to drive all the kids in the neighbourhood somewhere or maybe just have a car party where we never actually go anywhere but have a good time doing it. These are the things that are run through my mind, every time I climb into the Dodge Caravan Crew. I'll be driving along normally and then I'll check the rear-view mirror and have these random thoughts... More »
