Sugardaddy: Dave Grohl Rocks My World

babysugar — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 10:00:47 -0800

Rock stars often have inexplicable sex appeal. Maybe it's they way they jam on the guitar or toss their tousled hair from side to side, but for me Dave Grohl's appeal is directly linked to the father factor - how adorable he is with his 21–month–old daughter, Violet Maye.

Quite the family man, he and wife Jordyn Blum, are often seen hanging out at the park and farmer's market with their wee one.

The rocker, who just turned 39 this week, doesn't show his age a bit. This is surprising since the hard worker has been a musician and songwriter for more than half of his life.

To see why I have a crush on this Sugardaddy, just read more.

Grohl got his start with the band, Scream before he hammered away on the drums for the grunge groundbreaking, Nirvana. After Kurt Cobain's death, Grohl formed the Foo Fighters and soaked up the spotlight as lead singer and guitarist. He also collaborated with musical stars from various genres, including actor Jack Black and his band, Tenacious D.

Aside from taking darling Violet out for jaunts around town, this sweet daddy also finds time to help strangers in need. According to the BBC, in 2006 Grohl made good on a promise he made to two miners in Australia. After hearing that the trapped miners who had been involved in an accident wanted an MP3 player loaded with Foo Fighters music to keep them company, Grohl sent an email that said,

"Though I'm halfway around the world right now, my heart is with you both, and I want you to know that when you come home, there's two tickets to any Foos show, anywhere, and two cold beers waiting for yous. Deal? Looking forward to sharing them with you . . . Come home safe, and we'll see you soon. Dave Grohl.""

The miners survived and took Grohl up on his offer. Sounds Iike he gives the best, the best, the best, the best of himself.

Strollin': Bugaboo Bee

babysugar — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 05:00:40 -0700

If labels make you happy, but prices let you down, the Bugaboo Bee may be an option you can't resist. Celebs like Matthew McConaughey, Gwen Stefani and Dave Grohl probably didn't bat an eye at the $530 price tag, but it's a luxury many of us can't afford. The attractive pushchair does have a fair number of sleek features that many parents find worth the investment.

Crafted by the same makers as the Bugaboo Cameleon, the Bee boasts many of its characteristics and makes a name for itself with some significant differences. To see what the "buzz" is all about, read more.

Falling into the lightweight category, the Bee weighs significantly less than the Bugaboo Cameleon or Frog at 17 pounds. Much to my surprise, the Bee easily collapses in one fell swoop without having to remove a bassinet or toddler seat, making storage and lifting a cinch. The stroller, however, only comes with one seat, which is reversible, reclining and extend-able. For parents wanting to use the buggy immediately, there are adapters available for various infant car seats. After that, toddlers up to 37.5 pounds can enjoy the posh set of wheels.

Parents find themselves flying down busy streets with ease, which makes errand running efficient. The basket underneath the seat allows for ample storage space and easy access. In keeping with the stylish Dutch brand, the Bee is available in five fabulous fruity colors.

Tell me what you think of the Bugaboo Bee!

We will be finishing off our mini season of original stroller reviews with a special giveaway in October. Stay tuned for more details.

Trendtotting: Maclarens Get Fancy

babysugar — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 11:00:43 -0700

Almost anything can be upgraded for a price. Born in 1965, Maclaren is one of the oldest and respected brands in the stroller land. Celebs like Michelle Williams, Dave Grohl, and Melania Trump all chose the British-based buggies to tote their loved ones. While some opt for the less-expensive versions available at Toys 'R' Us, others pay a pretty penny for labeled versions.

Melania Trump pushes Baron in a pimped-out leather Maclaren ($3,800) and Geri Halliwell gives Bluebell a ride in the posh "Life Is a Bed of Roses," especially created by fashion designer Lulu Guinness. Lacoste, Burberry, Kate Spade, and others have also added their name to the list of specialty makers. When people are easily spending $900 on competitive brands like Bugaboo and Orbit Baby, the $300 Kate Spade buggy starts to look doable.

Maclaren Lacoste 2008 Ryder Stroller ($400)	Maclaren Kate Spade ($300)
Maclaren Burberry Stroller ($690)	Maclaren Lulu Guinness Stroller Life's A Bed Of Roses ($300)
Maclaren 4 Seasons Stroller ($425)	Maclaren Shanghai Tang Quest ($326)	Maclaren I Love Lulu Guinness Baby Stroller ($300)
