Cafe Rio Creamy Tomatillo Dressing

Monday, April 12, 2010 by Lolli 13 Comments

Creamy Tomatillo Dressing

This is my newest addiction. It is amazing on a salad, with chicken, quesadillas, fresh veggies, and burgers. Yes, I have tried it on just about everything. A couple of friends of mine introduced me to this amazing recipe last month (a copycat version of Cafe Rio’s incredible dressing!), and then I happened to promise…

I Heart Cheesecake

Monday, April 12, 2010 by Lolli 20 Comments

Cheesecake

Last night, as I was cutting a slice of cheesecake for dessert, Reese asked me “Mom, what is CHEESEcake made out of, anyway? There’s not really CHEESE in it, is there?” My poor daughter has never had the courage to try a slice of cheesecake. I suppose that’s fine with me. If all 5 of…

Facebook

Facebook is Your Child’s Online Playground…Are You Watching? Sex, Drugs… Now Facebook? Yes, it’s true. Now there is ONE MORE thing we, as parents, have to have “the talk” about. Technology has brought many wonderful things into our lives. We have monitors that let us watch our babies while they sleep. We can TIVO our…

Batman and the UPS Man: Heros

Sunday, April 11, 2010 by Lolli 8 Comments

Batman Rain Gear

The other day, an enormous package came in the mail while the big kids were in school. How often do kids get surprises like this from the UPS man (who, by the way, happens to be AJ’s hero)? Not very often. (Just for fun, I found this old post, from October 2008. AJ is dressed…

Mommy Olympics

Friday, April 9, 2010 by Lolli 22 Comments

boundless_color_nail_polish_

I was never what you’d call a great athlete. I was a star at ballet, but that was pretty much it. I stunk at soccer, basketball, volleyball (ouch!), and every other game they made us play at P.E. and recess when I was a kid. And forget Winter sports. I tried skiing several times and…

Percy Jackson in Washington DC? GMYBSPSF

Thursday, April 8, 2010 by Lolli 25 Comments

Washington DC, Greek Mythology, and Percy Jackson

I just finished reading Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Lightning Thief after seeing my kids devour the book. I didn’t see the movie in theaters (though now I wish I had) because I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I just didn’t thoroughly enjoy sharing it with my 9 year old son, who decided that…

Spring Fever….It’s Not the Only Fever Going Around!

Thursday, April 8, 2010 by Lolli 34 Comments

Spring Fever? Nope. That’s not what I’ve got. It already feels like full Summer around here, with several days of 85+ degree weather in Maryland (please, Utah friends: Don’t throw any rotten bananas or tomatoes at me for saying that. Remember that I did my time this Winter being stuck under several feet of snow!)…

Date Night

Wednesday, April 7, 2010 by Lolli 7 Comments

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of 20th Century Fox. All opinions are 100% mine. Later this month, CandyMan and I will celebrate our 15th anniversary. That’s a long time to be together. Being together for over 15 years and having 5 children together has been wonderful and often….but not always….exciting….

Washington DC Cherry Blossom Festival

Wednesday, April 7, 2010 by Lolli 24 Comments

There is something magical about visiting Washington DC during the peak of the Cherry Blossoms. During the 12 years that I have lived here in the metro DC area, I have been able to travel down to the City several times to see the blossoming trees. Last year, I even did an early morning photo…
