An Amends and Unicorn Cakes and Strapping Young Men
Pin itI’m am SO sorry. I have not been a good web hostess. I left early-to-the-early last Thursday to attend the BlogHer Conference… and got back late last night (if you are reading this in 2022, that would be Aug. 4-8, 2011… Thu-Mon… A LONG time for mommy to be away… bless my husband’s heart… [...]
Pretty much earned my super mom cape… and a limp.
Pin itA right of passage in childhood is having one’s mom bring birthday goodies to class. Me, not being one to rob rights of passages from my children, I dared take cupcakes to Olivia’s class – Hot Chocolate Cupcakes. {recipe here} {But I used a box mix and canned frosting} {And Stacey and Nadine’s candy [...]
Make Me want to push him off the park bench… Monday
Pin itDefinitely not a Make Me Laugh Monday. Why??? BECAUSE I WANT TO VENT. So LAST WEEK smacked around my ego quite a bit. But then I met Mr. Cherry on Top. On the 5th grade field trip. Because riding 3 to a seat on a bus bursting out the windows with hormonal smelly gossipy [...]
Now I am a Dream Interpreter?
Pin itI’ve been dreaming a lot lately. There was one recently about the dad of one of my kids’ classmates… *random*…who was the Incredible Hulk and he had to hold his breath so he could go invisible so as not to scare the children while decorating cookies. ? And I had to tell him (in [...]
The Confessional: I Am Afraid of Bees…
Pin itand/or wasps and/or yellow jackets. Basically anything with stingers. Seriously. No. I really mean it.

Pretty much simply due to the fact that STINGERS STING [...]

I need a post-it to remind myself to get more post-its, but I am out of post-its, so…} {photo credit: kakachu on flickr} Today, as I opened my laptop for the millionteenth time, I [...]
Let's Take A Moment of Silence
Pin itSad Little Pumpkin The moment of silence I request is not for that sad little pumpkin. But for this one. Not that I’m sad. Nor am I a pumpkin. I’m old aging. *raises fist to the beast that is aging and the associated cost to said aging!* Tomorrow is the day that is traditionally [...]
In Which I Ask Myself, "The Heck?!"
Pin itI’m sure you know exactly what I am talking about. One day you are in New York. Just enjoying the sights on Broadway… at 7 in the morning, in a tutu… Ya know… just a simple girl doing simple, normal, everyday things… See? Normal. Totes. And before you know it, daytime turns to darktime. [...]
Christmas Finds in August
Pin itI confess. It is August and I still have Christmas decorations up. However unintentional. Last year, when I was decorating for Christmas, I found a Christmas pillow – THAT WAS OUT ALL YEAR. The other day I was doing a hardcore cleaning because I was hosting a baby shower. This time I found a [...]
Make We Laugh Monday: Tampon Crafts and a Nod to Kevin Bacon
Pin itI wonder if Kevin Bacon ever thought his name would be used in such close proximity and relation to the words “tampon crafts”. This post is really a second installment to yesterday’s post… the one about Kevin Bacon and the Easter Bunny. But it has less to do with ♥ Kevin Bacon ♥… and [...]
