The girls recently saw an episode of Max & Ruby where the characters are playing Cinderella. Although I avoid the whole “princess” theme, my girls absolutely eat it up. Their other current obsession is money. A combination of these two interests led to the following dialogue: J: I’m waiting for my prince to come. C: [...]
Lunch. (& a salmon cake recipe)
My kids are starting daycare this week! While this makes me both nostalgic and a little weepy, I’ll admit to being a little excited for next week – the overlap week where they are in their “school” but mine hasn’t started yet! One of my biggest worries with them starting school is that I will have to [...]
End of an Era.
So I finally went and did it. After four years of freedom, I went and bought myself a shirt that needs to by ironed. Suddenly my going back to school feels very real. It is the end of an era, and the start of a new journey.

Well, a couple of years have passed and now my kids are the rambunctious older kids. Yesterday we (the [...]
Why we were 1/2 hour late today

This is what I’m getting G for Father’s Day…
If you think I’m talking about Father’s Day next year, you clearly don’t know me and have a warped view of me because I posted about having already ordered our Halloween costumes. I am pretty much someone who leaves things to the last minute and / or past the last minute. Case in point, I am [...]
Blech!
So G, in an effort to move our toothbrushes out of the “danger zone” of our two potty emptying 3-year-olds (another blech and the reason our bathroom has been cleaned 3 times this week), dropped BOTH his and MY toothbrushes IN the potty. Oh, and the potty had unflushed #1 in it. Needless to say, [...]
I bought my 1st Groupon!
I had a little coffee last night and then I couldn’t sleep so I was surfing the web. I came across a great offer at Groupon for $50 of Gap merchandise for the cost of $25 and snatched it up. This will be perfect for back-to-school shopping for the girls and I! You can visit [...]
