About The Publisher: Angela

Hi there! 

I’m Angela Scollar, a proud mom of 2 and 2 bonus kids (they came to live with us when my sister passed away a few years back), community cheerleader, and the founder of Totes and Tangles, a playful online shop full of quirky purses and hair accessories. 

When I’m not running my business, I can be found hanging out with a squad of axolotls at Easy Little Plants, my daughter’s charming plant store, where she hosts workshops for kids and adults alike.

My family moved to Rockville just before my dad retired from the army when I was 4 and I have lived here all my life minus a few post-college years in Atlanta working at CNN. 

I’ve been involved in local community projects for years—serving as PTA co-VP, president of the Wheaton Arts Parade board, and supporting education initiatives with a mix of public, private, and homeschool experience. These roles have given me a deep understanding of the challenges families face and I have always had a passion for helping parents discover the best local events, activities, and family-friendly gems.

As the publisher of Macaroni Kid, my goal is simple: to help families find fun, ease the daily juggle, and make lasting memories. Whether you're looking for a weekend outing or just a little inspiration, I’m here to bring the best of Rockville and Olney right to your inbox.

Let’s make memories without the stress—or at least with a cute bag and a quirky hair claw or a backpack and a collection of killer Dad jokes!
