NNJ Family: Family Guide to Living in the Northern Part of the Garden State

Welcome to Northern New Jersey Family! A new blog with a daily tip for living your life better in the northern part of the Garden State.

Come back each day as NNJ Family offers advice on saving money, local day trips and outings for the family, recipes that make life easier and so much more. 

Money Monday: 

Each Monday, we'll share bargains you can find locally. We'll also run features on saving money in general which is a bonus in these tough economic times.

Tuesday Trips:

Not sure where to head with the kids this weekend? Do they have a half day and you are looking for a quick outing that doesn't cost a lot of money? Every Tuesday we'll feature a different destination for family fun.

Wicked Wednesday: 

Looking for a quick guilty pleasure read? Need an awesome calorie-laden treat to bring to Bunco or Book Club? We won't tell your book club and we'll look the other way as you pass up the literary classics to snag the chick lit. We definitely won't rat you out at the gym and tell them how many candies you had at Bunco.

Thursday Thoughts:

Families face many issues — how are other local parents handling them? Should you let your nine-year-old play Call of Duty? What's the right age for a cellphone? When should your daughter be given a key to your home or be left alone for the first time? Visit NNJ Family on Thursdays to see what your friends and neighbors think.

Friday Feast:

Looking for a new recipe? Tired of making the same dinner week in and week out? Check out Friday's recommendations and recipes for great dishes to add to your culinary repertoire.

Welcome to NNJ Family -- we hope to see you again soon!
