What’s For Lunch, St. Pete?

August 10, 2010

When we first began planning our family vacation to Florida, (yes, I’m mentioning it one more time!) one of the first issues we tackled after agreeing on a date, was how / when / what / where we would eat dinner each evening as a family. We threw around a couple of ideas, none of [...]

Uniquely Interesting Useless Information

July 6, 2010

I should start by saying there is a chance that you might file this post under useless information. I would bet though that 82% of you will find it uniquely interesting, especially if you like strawberries. Y’all know that my domestic prowess doesn’t shine very often. And rarely ever in the kitchen. When it does [...]

40 Things Before 40

July 2, 2010

While sitting around the campfire tonight, we talked briefly about the bucket list. I don’t really have a bucket list, but I do spend a fair amount of time thinking of things I would like to do before I um, you know, pass. This isn’t necessarily a bucket list, because? Hello? I’m already 36 and these are [...]

One Cool Cake

May 25, 2010

It hit 80 degrees today. And I, for one couldn’t be happier. I was so afraid that we would spend a summer playing around with 70 degree temperatures and THE RAIN. The stupid stinkin’ rain. It has rained for weeks. Dang. Noah. Bring your ark. Since the warm weather has finally arrived (and appears to [...]

April 14, 2010

As I made 4,382 trips up and down my stairs yesterday in an attempt to bond with the washer and dryer, it dawned on me that I hadn’t come up with a topic for this week’s Thursday Thirteen. I thought it might be fun to come up with thirteen things I’ve turned on this week. So, I sat in [...]

A Post About The Beach (Cake)

March 30, 2010

I am not Martha Stewart. Nor am I a pristine model of pearly goodness like that blasted June Cleaver. Seriously, who runs a house like that? Are you telling me that June-Bug cleaned the toilet in those heels? Or magic erased the kitchen floor in that pressed prim and proper dress? I think not. I’ll [...]

Chaos Is My Friend

March 16, 2010

It’s time for another edition of Works For Me Wednesday and funny thing is I can’t think of one single thing at this minute that works for me because it is 8:18am on Tuesday morning (can you say overachiever?) and Tom and Jerry is blaring on the television so that Alex can get his fix [...]

You Capture – Work

February 11, 2010

This week’s You Capture challenge is  – work. I had a whole bunch of choices even though I no longer am on anyone’s payroll. If I still worked, this week’s post would include various pictures from the jail where I worked before hanging up my handcuffs to be a stay at home mommy. Metal bars, [...]
