When Alycia first contacted me about writing a post comparing baseball to relationships, I thought, ‘Cool! Why not?’ Then I realized that she would be writing about the Yankees. Bleech. I’m not much of a baseball fan, but if I had to choose, I much prefer the Mets over the Yankees. But how is this a […]
Guest Post: Baby Budgeting — Childcare
Our next post comes from my friend Donna, who has been a tremendous help and support throughout this pregnancy. I had been hoping that a guest blogger would volunteer to do a post on budgeting for a baby, so when she brought up the idea I couldn’t be happier. Donna will be doing a three-part […]
Guest Post: Geeky Halloween Costumes for Babies
I had considered dressing Claire in a fun geeky costume this year for Halloween (this Yoda costume comes to mind) but a newborn who can’t even support her own head takes some of the fun out of the process. Luckily, Stephanie came to the rescue — last time, she enthralled us with geeky Halloween costumes and she […]
Guest Post: Walking a Fine Line
I’ve found that most of my readers, or at least the ones who comment regularly, tend to be women. As such, I was THRILLED to receive an email from Nick who expressed interest in submitting a couple of guest posts. Even better, Nick is an extremely talented writer (just check out his bio — wow!) […]
Guest Post: Does Facebook Kill High School Reunions? My PoV.
Elyssa has been a loyal reader since my Weddingbee days, and when she showed me her own blog I couldn’t believe how great it was! I did not attend my own 10-year high school reunion for two reasons: (1) I did not like high school and did not need the reminder; and (2) it cost $88/head […]
Guest Post: How I Got Out of Debt
Our next guest post comes from Fabulously Broke, one of my favorite lifestyle/personal finance bloggers. I always found her story inspiring and asked her to write a special post on how she managed to clear $60k in debt AND build a respectable net worth. Enjoy! Background I am a twenty-something consultant who was $60,000 in student […]
Guest Post: Geeky Halloween Costumes
I’ve never been a huge fan of Halloween (once again, laziness plays a big part in this) but I know that many of my readers cherish this holiday. So when reader Stephanie offered to do a post on geeky Halloween costumes, I enthusiastically agreed and looked forward to the post with anticipation. And as you […]
Guest Post: Geeky Etsy Finds
I like to compare Etsy to New York’s Century 21: much loved by many, but too overwhelming for myself. As such, I was delighted when Jen offered to do a guest post on geeky Etsy finds, as this is a topic that I would never be able to tackle by myself. Enjoy! Hi guys, it’s […]
Guest Post: Friendship vs Marriage and Babies
Our first guest post comes courtesy of devoted reader JessicaMayLords. She has decided to tackle a topic I have covered a few times here at Geek in Heels — maintaining friendships after marriage/babies — and gives some great advice for people on either sides of the fence. Enjoy! “A true friend is someone who thinks […]
