Tiffany Raiford is a lifelong Floridian, wife to my high school sweetheart and mother of four littles (two girls and boy/girl twins...no, they are not identical and yes, I'm sure). My kids love to whine, so I love to wine. My loves include nap time, bed time, date night, travel and evenings and weekends when my husband is home because he handles all diaper changes.

The Kardashian’s do it. Brad and Angelina do it. Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa do it. The seven dwarves did it (they are brothers, correct?). Working with family is nothing new.

Getting dressed each morning is a problem for many women. In fact, most women find it difficult to choose an outfit that makes them feel comfortable, and confident all at the same time (if only yoga pants were acceptable for every occasion…).

In-laws: Aren’t they just the icing on the proverbial wedding cake? Some might say their in-laws aren’t so bad (I love mine) while others shudder at the mere thought of theirs (my husband…I’m only kidding mom and dad). Actually, it doesn’t matter if you love your in-laws or you wish run face first into a […] More
Being highly organized is a great way to live because it’s simple. Maybe not everyone feels the same way, but I certainly do.
