I just got a puppy and can't seem to figure out how to get around town with him. He's already 20 lbs.. Is there such a thing as a pet car-service?

Try Pet Taxi. They'll pick up your pet and deliver him to the vet, the groomer, your country house...with or with out you.

I can't seem to find sneakers to fit my 10-year-old daughter. She's in between kids and ladies sizes. Any suggestions?

Alyssa had a huge fight with her daughter before they got to Lady Foot Locker. The thing is...they have both larger children's sizes and smaller sizes for women. A size 3.5 children's is the same as a women's size 5.

What should I do when I find bugs in my kitchen that I have no idea where they come from, who they are and how to get rid of them?

So sorry!! Before you call an exterminator, see if you can ID the whatever. Warning: look at this on an empty stomach! We like 21st Century Pest Elimination in NYC.

Just started going to the gym again and all the girls seem to have the cutest workout clothes. I'm still wearing my husband's college t-shirts. Where can I buy some new stuff?

Unless you are in pretty good shape, you don't want to look too cute! Lululemon makes really great (ie:flattering) workout clothes. They are available online, in their NYC shops and some department stores. Equinox carries Lululemon as well as Hard Tail, Splendid, Stella McCartney, City Lights....

tip o’ the week: Super Easy Mac 'n Cheese

April 27, 2009 4:46 AM Filed Under: RECIPES TIP O' THE WEEK

Last year Hilary bought Alyssa's daughter a cookbook and Annabelle has spent the better part of the year perfecting the cookbook's macaroni and cheese recipe. Here's her version--the first one the children like that doesn't come out of a box and doesn't involve some sort of flourescent orange substance. The topping is our own special addition...but be forewarned: you won't be able to stop at one bite! [see more]
