Wednesdays are a little crazy for me. Why? you ask. Well ’cause I seem to be in the car A LOT. Today on the way back from an afternoon trip to Chick Fil A for ice cream for the kids and a sanity break for me, I counted. I buckled and unbuckled the kids’ 3…
WW – We Miss You Dada
So the hubs has gone a travelin’ again. The two weeks with him home was wonderful but all good things must come to an end. At least in this case. The boys are really starting to miss him more when he’s gone and both of them cried for him tonight. Little G is now used…
Who Wants Chocolate? (A Giveaway!)
I find it a little ironic that I’m trying to lose some weight but my blog continues to be about food. What’s that about anyway? Well in this case, I’m givin’ it away and won’t be eating it myself. So… there is a method to my madness! Who knew?! See’s Candies emailed me last week…
Favorite Food Swap (and the tale of how I found a TJ’s supplier…)
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,…
It’s Up!
We put out all the Christmas decorations on Saturday and I have to say it was pretty stress-free. The B Man had fun putting “non breakable” ornaments on the bottom part of the tree, which has dual purpose: first of all so he wouldn’t break any of them while handling them and also so that…

On Health and Weightloss and all that stuff…
So last weekend Tim and I had a few kid-free hours on Saturday afternoon thanks to my MIL. During that time we went into a bookstore where I picked up the book Skinny B!tch. Yes, that is the name of the book. After reading about half of it (btw, if you haven’t guessed from the…
The Milestones, They Are A Plenty!!
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…
Baking Queen
I felt like my mom yesterday. I baked and then I did a little baking and then well, I baked some more… I even popped a casserole in the oven for good measure. See, that’s pretty much what she does on the day before Thanksgiving – she cooks A LOT. I wore my apron (gosh,…
WW – What’s Wrong With This Picture?
This was Little G one morning while playing before school. He asked me* to put on his footy p.j.s over the ones he already had on and walked around the house like this for a good hour. In his arms are his two favorite blankets that also went to the park with us today and…
