Cup ‘o Tea, Gov’ner?
Nikki had a Going Away party for one of the classmates in her classroom this week and Wes was UBER-jealous. I eased his sadness by promising him we’d have a tea party last night after dinner. Which I promptly forgot because I’m totally that Mom. I bribe my kids to get the tears to stop and then immediately forget the bribe. Lucky for me… they remind me! So, we had a tea party last night after bathtime! And obviously before we brushed our hair if Nikki is... Read More
Look For Me Tonight On ‘So You Think You Can Dance’
I’ve had to upgrade the silly in our lives the last few days. I looked at a few of our nights the last several weeks and realized I had done substantially more nagging, yelling, and griping than I had anything else with the kids. I was annoyed every waking moment and my patience was EXACTLY non-existent. I think I spent about 3-5 days doing my best to make my pre-school children contemplate running away from home simply to get away from the SUPER-DUPER MEAN MOM constantly... Read More
Not All Dorks Are Created Equal.
Sorry for my absence yesterday, I’d love to explain why but it’s TERRIBLY BORING to anyone but me, so let’s just say I was busier than I expected.

ANYWAY… You know how all of us who have spent time writing and/or reading online agree that the internet is awesome because it brings us weirdos... Read More
Weekends in the Kitchen
During the week, breakfast menus are quick and healthy. Cream-cheese bagels, oatmeal and blueberries, fruit salad, rice krispies. Those types of things. Nothing incredibly time-consuming or yummy, if you were to ask my kids. But one day a weekend we usually go off the main track. We take two rolls of croissants and we cover one roll with peanut butter and milk-chocolate chips and the other roll with butter and cinnamon/sugar. There is really no wrong way to do these. We cook... Read More
Expecto Patronum!
My birthday was great, I’m slowly (but surely) making it through all of my birthday comments, so I will get to yours eventually! Thank you all so much. The internet make yesterday one of – if not THE – best birthday I’ve ever had. Of course, it had a little help from a little movie that came out last night! You know, I’m not a big fan of crowds. I hate shopping around Christmas, I hate eating at restaurants on the weekends and I hate seeing bands... Read More
