I saw this on my adorable friend Emily’s blog and she stole it from the awesome Zakary who hijacked it from another blog and yeah, it’s like an old fashioned (circa 2008) kinda meme. I tweeted back in December that I think we need a little of this, blog posts like they used to be, back…
Just because…
The rest of the title for this post should be “I feel like posting about this and that and the other”. But I thought that was really TOO long. Like the run-sentence of blog post titles, ya know? Yes, this post is going to be a bit all over the place. In the spirit of…
A Lesson in Clothes Buying (for your kids)
Have I mentioned that all it wants to do here is rain and be nasty out? I think I have. Anyway, that doesn’t really have anything to do with my post today. Or maybe it does just a little. The little kids usually play on the church playground while their older brother is in church…
Without Children
I am going to be completely honest here. Because it’s my blog and I can do that. If I want. And because well, sometimes it’s good to write these things… So, here’s what is on my mind… Sometimes I wonder about people who do not have children. You know, adult, married people. Our society fully…
Off the cuff…
When my alarm went off this (Thursday) morning I thought a police siren woke me up. That’s how out of it I was. SO tired. For a specific reason that I am sure once a month many of you can relate to. Anywho. I got up and made the kids breakfast (popped frozen things in…
There’s a little fashionista in me…
Have I ever mentioned that my major in college was Fashion Merchandising? Yeah, I barely remember too. I have always loved clothes and from a pretty young age. My mother used to take me shopping at the mall quite often after she got her bi-weekly paycheck from her part time job. She trained me well….
My Life in Numbers
I got this great idea from Greta at G*funk*ified and I thought I would put some of my numbers our there too and link up! Thanks Greta! 🙂 5 – the number of dogs we had over the years while I was growing up 1 – the number of dogs that were “mine” and that…
You Just Never Know… PLEASE Help for Sandy Recovery!
It seems like every few years there is another tragedy or natural disaster where I find myself parked in front of the t.v. watching heart-breaking images of unfathomable events. With this latest storm, “Sandy” I am taken aback by how quickly things can change. And the tears flow when I read stories about mothers losing their children…
So… Our Best Friends Now Own A Cupcake Shop!
Those look super yummy, yes? I know. They were my demise while in Texas a couple of weeks ago. Our really good friends now own The Cupcake Cottage in Fort Worth, Texas. They bought the business from another couple who apparently had their fill of frosting. (does that really happen? I don’t think so…) they…
Red Rose Teas {Review & Giveaway}
What do you like to drink? I do not really drink soda (or pop or Coke, as many call it) but I do like unsweetened iced tea a lot. That is usually my drink of choice in any restaurant (if not water) and I make it at home a quite a bit as well. I…
