The small town carnival. Yes. Breathe in… can you smell the corn dogs… the cotton candy… the elephant ears… and occasionally… … port-a-potties? Carnivals. The underbelly of the Disney-like experience. The amusement park for the common man. A fraction of the price, a fraction of the safety. At small town carnivals, you don’t have to [...]

GoGosqueeZ for the Perfect Finish!

Jenny On the Spot — Tue, 14 May 2013 21:14:11 +0000

It was that time of year again – SCHOOL FUN RUN TIME! 3.1 miles of family feet pounding the pavement at varying speeds. Some kids took off – almost with fire on their heels! While others kept stride with family or friends as they chatted, cheered, and breathed a bit heavier than on a normal [...]

Like this morning. However, as [...]

I’m sorry. I don’t mean to help run this holiday into the ground with ANOTHER post about moms/mother’s day. But, here lies my contribution to the internet. My family helped me make a little video for Mother’s Day. There are no flowers. Nor jewelry. No pedicures. No fancy brunch. Nope. But it fits. With new [...]

A Case of the Mondays: In Which I Apologize to Monday.

Jenny On the Spot — Tue, 07 May 2013 18:58:32 +0000

“A case of the Mondays…” No one wants a case of THAT. But you know what? I’m going to go on record and say… Mondays get a bad wrap. And I want to apologize to Monday. It’s almost like Mondays are Mom and the weekends are Dad. Dad is wrestling with the kids and making [...]
