The BIG Dinner Re-cap!

March 2, 2009 by Elaine

There is SO much to say about Saturday night that I’m not sure where to start. I guess I should start by saying I had a GREAT time! And then there are my shoes. I wore these. I saw them at DSW the other day and just HAD to have them (still doing my part…

Past Post Parade – February

February 27, 2009 by Elaine

Last month I decided to do something about the fact that I haven’t seen ENOUGH of what everyone has to say on their blog. So, I asked you all to link up and share with me your posts from the past. And I personally think it went swimmingly. I had so much fun visiting everyone…

Sonograms, The BIG Dinner, Past Posts, etc.

February 26, 2009 by Elaine

Lots of exciting things in the next few days. Today is my first sonogram and appointment with my doctor for the kidney bean – at least that’s the size babycenter.com says he/she is. And actually I will not even see my doctor today, rather the nurse practitioner. Which is fine because my doctor is a…

Past Post Parade!

January 30, 2009 by Elaine

Perhaps you’ve seen me mention on here lately that I come across new blogs on a daily basis. When I find a new blog that I connect with I usually read ONLY the most current post or a couple of more before that one, comment and move on. But sometimes as I am reading I…

You Know, This Blogging Thing is Kinda Fun

January 27, 2009 by Elaine

So, I’ve been blogging for over two years now but it’s only been about a year that I really started getting involved in this community of woman bloggers (and a few guys too!) that continues to propagate itself (I ‘m constantly amazed at the new blogs I find EVERY. DAY.) The other day when I…

Favorite Food Swap – My Goodies!

December 27, 2008 by Elaine

My Favorite Food Swap goodies were waiting for me when we returned home from our Christmas trip and I want to share with you all what I got from Simona. Here’s the photographic evidence of the yumminess that was in the package on my front stoop (perhaps after ALL my Joe Joe’s talk she understood…

All Warm & Fuzzy…

December 19, 2008 by Elaine

First of all…. Thank you. Thank you to all of you who left such supportive and heartfelt comments on my post about Little G on Wednesday. Honestly, I could feel your hearts going out to me and my little guy. And your prayers, well I felt those too. I know some may think it silly…

Favorite Food Swap (and the tale of how I found a TJ’s supplier…)

December 1, 2008 by Elaine

So I was minding my own business reading blogs one day when I got a comment from Laural Out Loud (who at the time was still Mamasphere…) on this post. In it she said that she was glad I reminded her that she needed more TJ’s (Trader Joe’s) “Oh’s.” My exact reply was this: “yeah,…

The Milestones, They Are A Plenty!!

November 28, 2008 by Elaine

Today’s post marks THREE (!) milestones for me. Yesterday was the first time Tim and I hosted Thanksgiving at our house. It was a small, delicious and quite lovely celebration of the day. There were eight adults and our two boys. My BIL made the turkey so I didn’t have to worry about that part…
