Make Me Laugh Monday – Facial Fitness?
Pin itIt is Monday again. Ya know, it happens every week. Every. Week. It’s like the moon or the tide or anything that keeps returning… like a boomerang. In an effort to offset the typical “whatever” that comes with a Monday, I offer Make Me Laugh Monday as a regular feature… a place not only [...]
Chocolate Milk… It Does a Recovering Body Good!
Pin itI can now check “run 15 miles” off my list of things to do by tomorrow, on account of the fact that — I. Ran. Fifteen. Miles. Today. I’d say, “You may bow”, but I think some of you might just think I’m nuts and will want to hold an intervention. Besides I don’t [...]
An Xbox Cake
Pin itI will start this post with honesty. I did NOT make an Xbox cake. Sure… I could have made it… but I didn’t. My sister-in-law made it for my nephew’s birthday last week. I am pretty sure, though, that somehow that cake was inspired by me. Pretty sure. One thing I am certain of, [...]

The Confessional – A Row of Cake
Pin itI confess. A few weeks ago, I was feeling weak. Very. Very. Weak. I wanted cake. I wanted me some moist yellow cake with yummy chocolate frosting. I tried to be a good girl for the first several days. I tried to make substitutions for this very specific craving… a few chocolate chips… an [...]
My Son's Newfound Love of Alliteration
Pin itOh dear. I have ruined my son. My son is made out of Awesome. He is just like his mother. Not only does he crave order, controlled chaos, predictability… (but not cake — what’s that all about? I digress…) — he also loves alliterative titles…. Just like his Mama. You know this about me… [...]
Sisters and the bond of love…
Pin itI love my sister. She is bolder and sassier and not older… and taller, but I’m not bitter. I like being the shorter, older sister. Every girl’s dream… Incidentally, she and my alter ego get along famously… like melted butter on warm banana bread. What? I have no idea… My sister and I used [...]

Pin itOh dear. That title sounds very wrong. Ah. It’s late. No it isn’t. It FEELS late. Also most of my brain cell has been exhausted due to this, that, and a whole lotta whatnot. A day. It’s been a day. So, instead of cleaning up my title so as to keep ya’llseses minds outta the gutter, [...]
Happy New Year, friends!
