I grew up in California and my in-laws live in Florida, and yet my digital photo library is sadly lacking in beach photos. Although it’s hard to tell that this picture was taken on a beach, I kept coming back to this one: My adorable friend found this perfectly lip-shaped rock in the sand on…
Knock, Knock! Mommy, Are you There?
Effective parenting means taking the time to listen and to understand the hearts of our children so that we can grow together in faith, friendship, and love. This video was a great reminder to me of what I need to do more often. Here’s to a happy, unplugged Sunday.
No-Guilt Sweet Tooth Satisfaction – Yoplait Giveaway
This morning I told my son a lie. I lied to him, and I didn’t take it back. You see, he was looking in the refrigerator for for something to eat for breakfast, and he spotted my package of Yoplait Splitz. There was only one lonesome cup of Strawberry Sundae yogurt in the package, and…
Gold Mine Giddy – GMYBS-PSF
It feels like ages ago that I took the picture that was to become my trademark Better in Bulk image. I wish I could take credit for the vision, but I have to admit that it was my friend, Liz, who came up with the idea of displaying the vintage candy jars with all of…

Click image to see source When CandyMan and I were newly married, we took our first vacation together. We drove to Yellowstone National Park and were awed by the beauty of the mountains, the wildlife, and the peacefulness.

Pink and Black Do Not Go Well Together
My room was dark. I was awakened by CandyMan, my husband, calling my name. I was vaguely aware that he had gotten out of bed earlier to go running. I was happy to stay in bed and sleep for a few extra….precious….minutes. My bed was warm and the house was cold. The kids would still…

It’s Time for the results of Budget Boot Camp challenge #7. It’s been an interesting road these last several weeks, with some of the “challenges” being second nature to me, and other challenges being really hard for me to adapt to. This week’s challenge happens to fall into the second category. – – The Challenge…

Lunch Is On Me – Wendy’s Giveaway
I love salads for lunch. In fact, it I wasn’t so lazy strapped for time in the middle of the day, running here and there, I’d eat a salad every day. So no one had to twist my arm to get me to try Wendy’s newest salads. The only problem I had was deciding which…
Joy
What brings me joy? How to answer that question? The trouble is that the answer might be different every day, depending on my mood and circumstances. Some days, listening to the rain fall outside brings me joy. Other days, the hot sun shining down on me makes me happy. Babies make me happy. I loved…
