Moms are talking about candy. It's the candy their kids are bringing home from school that's causing a big fuss.

Should teachers take a tougher stance on curbing gumballs and taffy or should parents be helping teachers with alternatives, by stocking classes with stickers?

I've seen more and more little ones who are wearing glasses. What are some early signs for a mom to watch out for?

Allergies are driving me crazy. My daughters also are sneezing and up late a night. Anyone know of natural, alternative remedies rather than grabbing Benadryl?

I call it the culinary advenuture with my kids. For example, my girls and I try a different restaurant now and then trying to find our best spot. There has been no match for our favorite: Pho 777, which reopened with its original owners across from Harrah's.
We eat/cook/experiment at home most of the time. But it's fun to explore a new restaurant, especially one that specializes in Thai, Indian, Italian or Mexican.
Any recommendation? Undiscovered hot spots, hole in the walls and family businesses are great.

The first of three 2007 MS Walks is this Saturday at the Sparks Marina.
Registration and check-ins begin at 8 a.m. The walk ceremony is at 9 a.m.
The MS Walks are not competitive and there are many rest stops along the route complete with food, water and bathroom facilities. There are vehicles that can drive walkers to the finish line if they get tired.
Three MS Walks are scheduled for Northern Nevada.

In an age of extreme makeovers, Botox, nip and tucks, it's no wonder people are putting a lot of money in their mouths.
So, it begs the questions: How white is white and how far would you go to get those pearly whites?
Exceedingly bright, white teeth are all the rage. Often times, the white on the teeth has become so blinding, Hollywood stars have been given sunglasses after each treatment. Celebs include Hilary Duff, Jon Bon Jovi, Oprah Winfrey, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Jessica Simpson, Nick Lachey, Britney Spears, Cheryl Hines, Eva Longoria and Tom Cruise.
