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 […]
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 […]
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, […]

In case you’re new to this blog, I’m pretty religious. But I’m not goofy about it (I hope!) It’s a big part of my life so I talk about it here on my blog. And of course if it weirds you out you can unsubscribe. Or just come back when I write another snotty post […]
