The one thing that I want you to learn about make-up is to be open to change. We all knew those women when we were growing up who looked like relics of the sixties and seventies because they were afraid to try something new and go for a more modern look. We don’t want to […]
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 […]

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 […]
The perpetrator (also a victim of his own crime): Goodbye hair. We will miss you!
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, […]
Time to dredge up the old wedding photo again. It’s my anniversary. Number 17 this year. Let me just state a few things about this picture: 1. I was 21. I may have looked 16, but I really was a grown up (legally. Emotionally I certainly was not. But nothing gives you a big, […]
Hmm, no you might actually curse me. But tell you, I must. Costco now carries the most delicious candy ever: chocolate caramel macadamia clusters. I love chocolate. I love caramel. I love macadamia nuts (well, all nuts really. Except walnuts which make my tongue swell.) I was foreordained to love these. Mister bought me […]

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 […]

I got a little carried away with PhotoBooth today. “You had better clean up those crayons/blocks/goldfish crackers NOW” “3:00??? The kids will be home in five minutes!” “What shall I have for breakfast this morning? Cookie dough or Pringles?” “Arianne, you are never going to believe what Mom said now!” “Teach Cub Scouts tomorrow? Uh. […]
