Dear Bio Mom: 8 Things You Need to Know About Co-Parenting with a Stepmom

I realize that not every step-parenting situation is the same. Some biological mothers have passed away, some are absent. While these situations may be your situation, this post is targeted to reflect the step-mother who is actively involved with her stepchildren on an everyday basis, whether her visits are once a year or daily.

Thursday’s Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cake

If you couldn't tell between this recipe and last week's, I am most definitely a chocolate lover.  If it's chocolate, chances are, I'll probably love it.  This recipe happens to be one that I've been making for well over 10 years.  I started baking it when I used to babysit.  We'd be bored over the summer and spend lots of time baking.  When I ran across this recipe, it became a favorite, and I've made it countless times since.  We used to add icing to it, but it tends to be much too sweet (at least for my tastes).  It…
