I can’t believe National Pie Day only happens once a year. But this is the day, January 23rd. I’m working on a pie crust tutorial for you but just in case it isn’t done in time, here are some recommendations for a few pie-influenced things: Waitress is hands-down the best pie-related movie out there. It’s […]

I swear Facebook will be the death of me!  I keep thinking that I’m writing private messages, only to have them slapped right up on the main page. And they can be a bit gossipy.  And a little on the snotty side.  I’d better just keep everything pleasant and superficial before I alienate everyone. Including […]

Have you ever had fabric that was just a little too white?  Maybe you’d prefer an item to be ivory or off-white and it’s stark white instead? Or maybe you want something to look a little more antique than it currently does. This happened to me and I looked to traditional fabric dye but there’s an […]

Mister and I have some good friends* who are going to Hong Kong and China in June and invited us to come along. Actually, we invited ourselves to come along because it sounded fun and we have a ton of frequent flyer miles that are about to expire. So we were all set to make […]

I haven’t done much with Makeup Monday in a while because I really haven’t used anything lately that’s rocked my world. A couple of months ago I went up to Dallas for a conference and as I packed to leave, my kids came in and out of my room a jillion times and completely distracted […]

Suffering from a completely fried brain due to the eighth straight week of 98º+ temperatures, I took my children to Target this evening. Not all of them. Just five. (York is on a scout campout with Mister.) But five is easier than six, right? If the one missing is a toddler, most definitely. But York […]

Have you been hearing all the brouhaha about the movie American Sniper and how the US military referred to the people in Iraq as savages? I don’t even watch TV and I keep hearing about it. To me this is very interesting because I’ve known loads of Iraqis. I grew up in Detroit which has […]

I really love rain; I have my whole life. Then I got married and moved to Oregon, and like a candyholic who works in a chocolate factory, I got completely and utterly sick of it. It’s really awful to have children who can’t play outside for months on end (unless you count all the jillions […]
