Exactly Why This Is Not A Craft Blog

I decided to try my hand (again) at making some hair clips for NikkiZ. I bought this really cute Princess ribbon on clearance and made this gem first. Do you think it’s big enough? Bah. Not only is it WAAAY too big for her head but it’s also too big for the clip I put it on so it didn’t stay in hardly at all. And it’s also all crooked too. You’ll have to trust me on that one. So, I thought I’d try again with a smaller attempt. That one... Read More

Big News For Everyone!

Wow! Where the hell have I been? Well, I’ll tell you. I’ve been moving! Kinda. The companies I work for grew into a neighboring office space so I have been moving my shit into my Very. Own. Office!

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
