I haven’t posted for a while. I’ve been in New York! Without kids! Do I even have to tell you how wonderful it was? Mister, who you may or may not have heard, was not terribly excited to go at first (I did write a spiteful blog post about it, but deleted it the next […]
You guys! How could I almost have forgotten? This week is my two year blogiversary! I can’t believe I’m still around writing all this crap. I guess I am not a quitter. Actually I have the opposite problem; I stick around long after I should have gone/quit/stopped. Which is good news for my husband, […]
So, Austin is hot. And hot places have one thing in common: there are lots of critters. It only makes sense since it rarely gets cold enough to kill all the bugs and snakes. Yes, there are scorpions here. If you live in a house less than a year or two old, there will still […]

Today for Fess-up Friday we’re going to talk about kitchen disasters. My biggest disaster had to do with an egg. A hard-boiled egg. I made several in a pot of water for my kids and I. When I peeled the first egg I realized it wasn’t quite done. I’d heard that you shouldn’t put eggs […]
A couple of weeks ago one of my readers,Tiffny, pointed out that my blog has been really gross lately; weevils, lice, rats . . . Yep, I’m most definitely guilty. It’s a strange thing when you blog; there is the group of bloggers who feel like they should present a really lovely, wonderful life because […]

There are a lot of kids around the country starting school soon. Mine are, including Jasper–the last of my six babies–who is heading off to Kindergarten. It really signifies the end of an era. The end of me being the mother of very little children. This is what it boils down to: I have had […]

I’ve been devoting all morning to these. They are totally not worth the effort, by the way (but let’s hope the third graders in Arabella’s class appreciate them.) In case you’re super insane and want to make these, here is the easiest way to do it: –make a white cake mix (I usually substitute melted […]
