Ever since Trinity was a toddler people started calling her mini-me. I guess it is because she has the blondest hair, well natural blonde that is, talks constantly like me, is super bossy like me AND loves projects, thrift store shopping and anything DIY. A few weeks ago I finally got over to see…
Such a blah day!
Well, it is 4:20 on Sunday and I am in such a crappy mood I can’t think of anything creative to say about Veteran’s Day. The only thought that keeps coming to mind is “Hey People, Veterans day isn’t just for getting a discount at the mall!” It is the day we thank and honor…
Feeling depressed after the elections
I don’t know about you but as I listened to talk radio today I was starting to feel really depressed about the future. In our house we are barely recovering from the recession and after my hubby got a new job a few months ago everything was looking up until last night. I have been…
The Best Caesar Salad Dressing Ever…
My friend Vivian is married to Carl, who is a fabulous cook. Carl is such a great cook that she never has to prepare any meals and they don’t even own bottled salad dressings. Bottled salad dressings are against the law in their home. Love it! Last year they invited the whole family over for…
It’s official, I am a blogoholic!
As you all know, I love writing my blog but in the past few weeks my blogging has escalated to another level. Once I got my blog just the way I wanted it, I decided I hated everything about it and was bored. I wanted to change the logo, widen the page, shrink the…
The crayons have taken over!
If you are ever unfortunate enough to experience a ride in my filthy car, this is what you would see when you look up. I know, crazy right? Everyday the marks somehow seem to grow and encompass more of the roof area. Every time my Mom gets into my car, she literally cringes when…
Chicken Tetrazzini, my favorite childhood meal…
This was my absolute favorite meal growing up. Because it is so rich and fattening I have adjusted my Mom’s recipe over the years so it is a little better on the belly fat. It still tastes just as great and is a perfect meal for a Fall night and is really easy to…
A trip down memory lane…
I have to say I was rather shocked that yesterday’s post was my 2nd most popular to date. I woke up in the middle of the night and realized I hadn’t included a picture and was going to get up and add one and thought “how stupid, Tiffani” your readers will be fine without a…
In response to your comment…
A reader left me a comment last week that really took me back. This was the comment: ” I feel so badly for Trinity. She’s been neglected and deprived a healthy emotional state. I’m unable to understand why it’s more important to devote 99% of yourself to a daughter for whom that investment will yield…
Do you think professional family portraits are important?
I grew up in a family where taking professional family portraits, was a must. Almost every year my Mom arranged for us to have our picture taken by a professional. We would use the picture for our Christmas card and then have a few framed for the walls. Invariably my Mom would also buy…
