Pardon the “poop” exclamation, I’m trying to avoid cursing even the little bit I do since my kids now repeat everything I say. First things first. Re: Dishware. My brain spent the majority of yesterday going over ideas you all had and perusing Fiestaware websites and sales. And while I love, LOVE, LOVE the idea of Fiestaware, I think we’ve decided it wouldn’t... Read More

For the first time ever, I ask you for advice on home decor.

In the house we’ve owned for five years, not a lot of thought has gone into the decor. We bought new couches when we moved in – but nothing exciting or long-lasting. We bought a simple entertainment/TV set up from Target…but none of it required us to commit to any sort of look in our home. We’ve always known we’re staying neutral in this home, not... Read More

SERIOUSLY UPDATED! (I promise!) What I’m Reading

'Bully' Problems: The MPAA Gives A Scarlet 'R' To A Thoughtful Documentary I really hope they change the rating to PG-13 or else the most important potential audience will miss it
Get Busy Loving Those Who Love You She says it so much better than I did.

Farsighted not a typical YA novelI trust her judgement meaning ANOTHER book to add to my ever-growing "To Read" list.
John Carter (AKA why I think some movie critics should get their panties out of a wad)AGAIN. I trust her opinion. And I love Tim Riggins.
Asian Pork TenderloinI've never tried to cook a pork tenderloin before...this makes me want to try.
My Haters Are My Motivators is The Perfect Title For This Post. Amen.
I just went… Yes. What she said. It doesn't happen over night...but it CAN happen.

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.
