What The Frick Kind Of A Park Is This?

This is the third day that my nephew has been here at my house for part or all of the day. It’s been… different. Boys are a lot different than girls, and he is 7 which is 3 years older than my oldest. So they manage to get into trouble together.
By 10:30 am this morning I was already [...]

The One Where I Run An Empty Washing Machine

We had kind of a busy day today. My husband was home, which always kind of throws our day off, and my nephew was here running around with my girls. I was trying to make lunch, wash some laundry, fold some laundry and was thinking about taking the kids swimming later in the day.
I had transferred some laundry [...]

Spaghetti Recipe From The Back Of A Can (It’s Good, I Swear)

I used to spend a lot of time concocting red “gravy” for spaghetti. Often my sauce involved crushed tomatoes, fresh basil and even pancetta. But anymore I can barely manage to get two dishes on the dinner table, let alone spend large amounts of time simmering sauces with 12 ingredients. Several months ago I came [...]

Hey, That’s John Mayer…I Think…He Looks So Small…

For Mother’s Day this year my husband gave me two tickets to see John Mayer in concert. I don’t think I’ve adequately covered my deep love for John Mayer here in this blog. I seriously love him. Let me just say, for me, it’s John Lennon then John Mayer. Except John Mayer is so damn [...]

Are You Freaking Kidding Me?

Amy Winehouse told the British version of OK magazine, “Blake and I can’t wait to have kids. I want at least five kids. I want twins…Blake is gonna be the most amazing dad.”
(Insert dumbfounded silence here.)
Uh, wow. She’s cracked out all to hell and he’s in prison, so gee, yeah, they’d make some stellar parents. [...]

There is Nothing Redeeming About This Post

I am so addicted to Hopkins, the ABC show about real life doctors at the real life Johns Hopkins Medical Center. I have actually been skipping Grey’s Anatomy (it’s all reruns anyway) and tuning in to see the real deal on Hopkins.
Last night was a total tear jerker. The most precious little boy you have [...]

Well, Slap My Face And Call Me Tootie!

Because Avery slept through the whole entire night. Without waking up once. I’m serious, not one time. Not one whimper, peep or moan. All night. Until 7:30 a.m. Truly.
I know it seems unbelievable, I’m having a hard time understanding it myself. She went out at 10:00 p.m. last night. I went to sleep shortly after [...]
