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 my constant search for the perfect baptism* dress for Arabella I came across this beauty. It’s silk, hand smocked by Isabelle Garreton (who makes the most drool-worthy dresses. Look at that smocking!), size 12 (new with tags) and it’s for sale on ebay for $9.99. Yes, you read that right. I almost passed out […]
You remember my post about the phases of blog relationships? Well, this week I had a chance to go all the way with Jennifer, the (soon to be) Baby Making Machine. She was as cute and funny and darling as she is on her blog. It was wonderful and I had a great time (hope […]
First of all, the preparedness item this week is Spaghetti Sauce. It’s a pasta topping! It’s a pizza Sauce! It’s multi-talented! If you are aiming on spaghetti/pizza/etc. once a week, that’s going to be 12 jars. Think you can handle that? If that’s too much for your pantry (or your budget) to handle, then get […]
Holy mother-of-pearl! I found two, two, two grey hairs on my head yesterday. I realize that I am 37 and that this was bound to happen. (My little sister has been going grey for years. Sorry Ari, I had to tell.) I have been suffering from this crazy, insane notion that somehow I wouldn’t actually […]
What is going on? It seems like every other person I know is training for a triathlon. Why triathlons? Why all of a sudden? Three years ago nobody was doing triathlons, and now I’m the only one who isn’t training. Seriously, what is the allure? I don’t like running, but at least running kind of […]

I mentioned earlier how I like to be showered and ready before my kids wake up. This is not because I am disciplined (so laughable!) or have my life together. It’s because showering while Ada and Jasper are up and about leads to nothing but trouble. As I found out yesterday. This is what I […]

. . . why nobody has told me they’ve gotten their flour yet. Is everyone so busy that they haven’t once been to the store? Doubtful. Today is your last day. This is one of the most important (if not THE most important) item you’ll have in your food storage. So let’s not slack off […]

Do you know what this blog is turning into? A narration of all the things I do when I’m supposed to be cleaning my house. I hate cleaning my house. How many times can I put the same dish in the dishwasher? Or put the throw pillows back on the sofa? Or pick up discarded […]
