I have a serious thing for Caramel Corn and I never really let myself eat it because after the first bite, I literally lose all will power and can’t stop eating until the whole bag is gone. Since it is October, I have been seeing recipes everywhere for the stuff and I have been considering…
ADHD may be the death of me…
I never mentioned this before but one of my children has Attention Deficit Disorder and it drives me crazy! There isn’t a day that goes by that this ADD does not frustrate me in some huge fashion. I once read “hate the ADD, not the person” and I try to remind myself of this…
If you want to know what she will look like in 20 years, look at her mom…
Last night Louie and I were sitting on the couch watching TV and I was complaining about my poochy stomach. Until recently, I always had a flat stomach, but suddenly my whole body has shifted and if I gain even 1 pound it shows on my belly not on my butt. My whole life…
Not a great day, when you wake up and step in poop…
The past 24 hours haven’t been totally horrible but a series of events have me wishing the day would end quickly and we could start over tomorrow. Last night, Tabitha decided to go to the market and grab some avocados, since we we were making our favorite seared tuna and avocado dish, but we…

Brighten up your space in 5 minutes for free…
I love to have fresh flowers in my house at all times, but I can’t always make that a reality. I grew up in house where my mother always had vases of fresh flowers everywhere and of course I would love the same for my family. Prior to the recession I probably spent $25…
I hate having red hair!
Today is day 17 of having red hair and I feel like I may lose it soon. It seems as if my hair has been red forever, not just 17 days. Time flies when you are having fun, but time stands still when you hate your hair color! My hubby keeps asking me “when are…
Sorry, but if your child isn’t good, they should sit on the bench!
I may become very unpopular today but I don’t really care. I was going to write this post last week but I was in such a twitter about the whole subject I decided to calm down and wait so I could discuss my opinion like a reasonable human being. Here it…
everything I didn’t tell you this week…
Have you ever noticed when you talk to someone almost everyday you always have so much to say and yet when you talk to someone you haven’t seen in forever you are sometimes stumped on how to carry the conversation? Well, that is how I feel about my readers. I write stuff to you everyday,…
