Blogging allows you to meet, both virtually and in real life, some really talented people. Some have a gift for writing, some for crafts, some for art, and some for all of the above. Brenda is one such talented blogger who I now call a friend and have had the pleasure of getting to know. […]
I love Zara’s design aesthetic, their prices and the fact that there’s an actual store just 20 minutes down the road. Tonight I wanted to do a little online browsing, so I hopped on over to Zara to see what’s new. I couldn’t help but be brought to giggles when I saw the looks on […]
Thank you for all your kinds words on Monday, in regards to Syd’s surgery and reflux diagnosis. As usual, I didn’t reply to the comments and I’m sorry, but I read every single and and your encouragement meant the world to me. I know Halloween is a weeks past now, but since I’ve been pretty […]
As I had mentioned last week, Syd went in for his tonsillectomy last Friday. The procedure went well and the doctor ended up taking out part of his adenoids as well. When we initially found out that Syd would have the procedure done, I talked to his speech therapist about it and she reacted positively, […]

These days I forget a lot more, I let […]

I eat clean and I eat dirty Happy Sunday friends. The hardest thing about 31 Days has been writing everyday, particularly on the weekends. I make it a habit of never posting here on the weekend because a) I’m usually too busy with the family and b) If I do have some down time to […]
As we head into the weekend, I wanted to get up a clean eating sample meal plan, for those of you that do meal plans and grocery shopping over the weekend. Please keep in mind that I don’t cook every single day and I am a creature of habit, so many mornings I have the […]
Last week when Martha went a bit crazy and warned everyone to be wary of bloggers, and our lack of experience, I had to chuckle, after at first fuming. She made mention that many of our recipes and such weren’t all that good, and hadn’t been tested, and even said many were copycats of recipes […]
