Tiffany (whose sunroom I’m very jealous of) had this great thing on her blog a while ago and it has intrigued me to no end. It’s called formspring and the whole point of it is to ask people questions anonymously! How thrilling! So if there’s anything you’ve ever wanted to ask me, now is your […]
Finn: “York told me that there’s a Chupacabra in the scriptures.” Me: “Realllllly. I don’t recall reading that part.” Finn: “Wait, maybe it’s a Kraken that’s in the scriptures.” Me: “Still not ringing a bell.” Me: “Sounds like you and your brother need to go to Sunday School twice a week.”
I’ve been browsing a bit on etsy lately. It’s very addictive and I can find all sorts of non-useful things that I really must have. Some favorites: This monogrammed Queen Bee canvas: This cake platter is perfect for me; I love cakes, I love flowers, I love mosaics. I wonder if I could make something […]
I fell in love with a skirt that I saw on Dana’s blog (she is mightily creative and a fellow Austinite). It’s for a little girl, but I altered the pattern and made one for myself. I don’t know why I like sewing when most of the time it ends up frustrating me to no […]

I needed to pick up some little bowls with lids so I stopped by the baby department at Target yesterday thinking I might find some. I haven’t been through there in a while. The baby bowls are right next to the sippy cups so I thought I might pick up a few, seeing as how […]
I was amused to read this article about Ford’s development of an ultra-safe inflatable seat belt. When are car companies going to realize that providing more safety is only backfiring? Drivers feel too safe; too cocooned in their cars. People are feeling invincible. Ford has gotten it all wrong. If you want drivers to be […]
I hate that saying because making pie is really complicated. Maybe that’s what the phrase is supposed to mean. That something is very complicated and time-consuming. I don’t really care much for pie; particularly fruit pies (why would someone want fruit in their dessert–unless it’s lemons?) But I do make a few great […]
Yesterday I finished painting India’s bedroom. It’s cute, but still too messy to take an “after” picture. The bathroom next to India’s room is the main floor bath, and I couldn’t help but notice how boring and ugly it is. The color on the walls is the same beige that is in a lot of […]
Our family, like many others, eats pizza a lot. It gets expensive but who can resist a nice hot meal that you don’t have to leave the house for? Eventually I decided to learn to make it myself. It’s so crazy easy (and cheap!) that we haven’t ordered out for pizza in forever. This tutorial […]
Would someone please tell me how I could possibly have a fourteen-year-old? I mean, when did that happen? I lucked out with this girl. She’s the best child a mom could hope for. Love you India! Happy birthday!

Today is my anniversary. Or rather, my anniversary with Mister. We have been married for twenty years. That is a really long time. Although I look fifteen I was actually 21. At the time I felt rather grown up but as I look back I realize what an absolute child I was and what business […]
