I don't know where my head is lately. I was so busy preparing to go to the Type-A Mom Conference that I forgot to blog about something really cool that happened to my kids. We won VIP tickets to meet Reed Alexader, the actor who plays the evil Neville on the Nickelodeon show ICarly! I won them from my friend Beth's blog, Plus Size Mommy.

Reed Alexander was promoting his new cook book at the Giant Eagle Market District at Robinson, so we all piled in the van the weekend before the conference to go meet him. We were treated to a breakfast by the wonderful Market District staff, where Reed stopped by to say hello to us all. Then the kids got to go and meet him, one group at a time, to ask questions and get his autograph.

Here's the kids getting their chance to chat with Reed!

And here he is signing their picture.

Reed Alexander is doing a number of media tours lately to to promote his yet-to-be-released cookbook and website, KewlBites. At the Market District appearance, he demonstrated some of his recipes. He's personally working toward a healthier lifestyle and showed the audience how to make some really tasty and healthy foods.

I highly recommend checking out his site with your kids. It's got a lot of fun activities and fabulous recipes. I can't wait to try the chicken nugget and smoothie recipes he showed us at the event!
