If you are what you drink…

Dunkin Donuts is in the Coffee Business

Pin itUPDATE: Fact: I don’t have a Dunkin Donuts near me. Fact: As far as my bent toward not being able to reisist baked-goods goes… this fact is probably not so bad. Fact: Dunkin Donuts is also in the coffee business… Dunkin’ Donuts Coffee at Grocery. Fact: You can find it at your local grocery store! [...]

My Favorite Holiday Tradition Happens in the Kitchen

Pin itMy favorite holiday tradition is baking. I love baking and/or making sweet treats with my kids. Wait. I should qualify “with my kids”: Their *help* in the kitchen is rarely all that helpful, and at times it can be a bit messy and/or/and SLOW. However. I am realizing my kids’ favorite tradition is making [...]

Me and Coffee and My Public

Pin itI am picking myself up. Dusting off my knees. Moving on from my last post. Hugs and love to those who commented, texted, emailed and FB messaged. I am blessed to have such lovely people in my life… So. Here’s a picture – to stand in the gap as I dust myself off and [...]

It’s safe to come to my house for coffee again.

Pin itLet me tell you something about me: I don’t “do” fat free nor sugar free. Well, sugar free with the exception of Coke Zero. I’m all over Coke Zero like stir-up pants on legs in the 80′s. Otherwise… gimme fat and sugar… and also muffin top. *holds up sword of principles* *arms jiggle* But [...]

Storytelling: Looking for Inspiration in the Everyday

Pin itI am a firm believer that stories are everywhere. But sometimes – and more recently - oftentimes… life gets so full, or chaotic, or stressful… the stories are hard to see. Writer’s block exacerbated by life chaos? Perhaps. I wonder, though, if it is more a general mind-block… Mental (or creative) constipation, if you will. [...]

We’re saving trees!!! (A.K.A. Pasta stir sticks)

Pin it A local coffee house provides a green-alternative to those tiny black (and sometimes red) stirring straws… pasta noodles (linguini?)! Recently, I took my children and a couple of their friends to the coffee shop with the pasta stir sticks. The kids started grabbing almost-handfuls full. Of course they did. I chided, “Kids. Stop. [...]

The First Day of School: Like I wouldn’t write about it.

Pin itI know, I know… the internet is abuzz with “the first day of school” updates. You have probably had your fill. But I just feel I would be remiss if I didn’t join in on all the bragging news-sharing. I mean… my kids. They are CUUUUTE. You try and not post about such cuteness. [...]

Nail Polish, Hand Soap and Subtraction: Just Another Friday [Video]

Pin itIt all started innocently enough… I stood at my bathroom counter and faced a question… get one hand fully nail polished, or half-way complete two hands. And I wondered, what would my people do? And then I thought – I’ll make a video! But first I need to refill my hand soap… and this [...]

I Want to Walk on The Clouds!

Pin itI remember when I was a little girl. I DREAMED of being able to dance on the clouds. To prance and swoosh and spin in the light clouds. It never occurred to me that were I to step out of a plane onto a fat, white cloud… I would fall to a certain death. [...]
