a mom's night out with mojo

Mama Bootcamp is presenting its first ever Mama's Night Out benefiting children from Sacramento area nonprofits!

Come join the fun as Lorri Ann and her team put on the best Friday night workout you've ever had! You'll break a sweat mid-court at Arco. All proceeds will allow children from local nonprofits to attend the Sacramento Monarchs vs. the Houston Comets on August 30th—something they couldn't do without you! It's open to women of all ages, bring a friend and get ready to work out for a great cause!

Lori Logan will share her childhood experiences from the Sacramento Children's Receiving Home and tell us what Mama Bootcamps have done for her as an adult. Also, Sara Gergis will share with us how she lost a close to 120 pounds. On top of all that, you'll get an awesome workout.

Find your mojo, get a great workout and help local children! Visit bodybycode.com to download a reg form to print and bring with you along with ten bucks to donate to the cause, a yoga/fitness mat, one set of 5 lb weights and your best sneakers!

just between friends...

Sacramento's Just Between Friends Sale is just 1 week away! Consignors are creating tons of tags for the sale and there are LOTS of great bargains coming. Bedroom sets, double strollers, book sets, Gymboree and other name-brand outfits, cribs.... you'll love the prices! JBF will have it all!

There's still time for you to join to consign if you haven't already. Last season I was able to clear a ton of stuff out of the garage, and made enough cash to buy my favorite hobo bag I'd had eyes on!

Gather up your outgrown kid's clothes, overstocked toys, crafting supplies, scrapbooking items and recycle them thru JBF for CA$H. Consignors shop before the public on Thursday (best deals, best selection).

Unable to consign this time, but still want to shop the Presale?  Consider Volunteering at the sale or check out SACMOMSCLUB.com for a chance to WIN a JBF PRESALE PASS! They will be holding a drawing this week for 10 lucky members to attend our exclusive JBF Presale event. Good Luck!

so much for the 5-second rule: food detectives

Check it out...Ted Allen and Popular Science Magazine answer burning food questions on a new and fun-to-watch-with-the-fam Food Network program, Food Detectives. Viewers send in questions, and they conduct experiments to get to the bottom of things. Recent episodes have tackled such mommy-brain stumpers such as: Does celery really have negative calories? Does ginger help motion sickness? Does double-dipping really spread germs? Why is the sky blue? Okay, they don't cover that last one, but a recent episode did tackle our old standby, the 5-second rule. I won't go into too much detail, but long unfortunate story short, the 5-second rule is a bunch of hooey. (What am I gonna do now?) Watch out especially for more porous or sticky items that are dropped (like french fries)—the petri dish results are not pretty. Watch for Food Detectives on the Food Network.
