Interviewed and quoted in article, "Mommy Blogs Are Gaining Visibility" and launch of New Jersey Moms Blog for local newspaper on NorthJersey.com.
Newspaper: The Record http://www.northjersey.com/betterliving/family/18393069.html
Elizabeth is a stay-at-home Mom (an oxymoron, really, since she is found in her minivan running errands more than she's at home) and enjoys writing about the trials and tribulations of raising 4 children, a rambunctious lab and killer dust bunnies.
Mom to an artistic teenager (Thing One is 13) a drama tween (Thing Two is 11) a female version of Jim Carey (Mini-me is 6) and The Boy (he's 8) there's plenty of blogging material, trust me!
She has essays published with Nurturing Magazine and Writers Digest Magazine, waxes poetic on her blog, This Full House (a charter member of the BlogHerAds Network and Top 100 Mom Blogs) and hosts a bi-weekly blogging carnival on her review blog, This Full House of Product Reviews.
Liz is a columnist for The Imperfect Parent, contributing blogger for New Jersey Moms Blog (SV Moms Group), Green Mom Finds and Parent Bloggers Network, and has submitted essays as a contributing editor to BlogHer.org and Moms Speak Up.
She is also one of the Parenting Team Advisor Board at Disney's Family.com and featured mom blogger for Wondertime.com.
A native Jersey Girl, Liz is a first generation American - her parents immigrated from Hungary in 1956 - along with her twin brother, Army Dude, and is an avid genealogist, who will forever be thankful that her grandmother taught her how to speak, read and write in Hungarian.
Liz lives with her husband, Garth (not his real name) and writes in New Jersey.
