After showing off our slightly complicated Easter Egg decorating the other day, today I am ready to share the more traditional “dunk and dye” eggs that we also decorated this week. Sadly, we have spent the majority of our Spring Break with 2 or 3 kids sick. Vacation is no fun when all you want…
How to Blow Out Easter Eggs
My kids love decorating Easter eggs every year. For many years, we simply used the basic egg dyeing kits from the grocery store. In fact, we still use one or two kits every Spring to color the hard boiled eggs. A few years ago, though, we were introduced to blowing out eggs to decorate. These…
Kiss Dry Goodbye with Biolage
This is the story of three friends: Lolli, Safire, and Rain. You know me – I’ve got 5 kids. Safire has 3 kids – a five year old girl and 3 year old twin boys. Rain has seven kids – Yes, 7. That’s 15 kids between the 3 of us, ranging in age from 19…

Child Hunger Ends Here
There have been plenty of times in my life as a mother when I have wondered where money for milk or bread was going to come from. But somehow, thankfully, something has always fallen into place and I’ve had food to feed my kids. We’ve had challenges, but we’ve also been greatly blessed. Not every…
Where Are the Blossoms? PSF – GMYBS
After a morning blogger event in DC, I joined a few of my local blogger friends for a quick drive down to the National Mall to see the last of the season’s cherry blossoms. Note: no drive to Downtown DC can be considered “quick.” In fact 5 miles in DC will usually take about 30…
Monetizing Your Blog
I started blogging in 2007 as a hobby – more of an online, shareable scrapbook than anything else. Like many others entering the blogging world, I was clueless. I didn’t know the terms of the trade – blogosphere…html…social media…monetize. And I certainly couldn’t have predicted how much I would end up loving blogging. As my…
When They Grow Up
One of MamaKat’s writing prompts, inspired by Leslie from Motherhood in Mexico, jumped out at me today. It could have something to do with the fact that KitKat and I were discussing whether or not she’d make a good lawyer on Monday. Or maybe not. Either way, I thought it would be fun to predict…
