This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Bliss Living. All opinions are 100% mine. Mother’s Day is coming up soon, and I am determined NOT to have a repeat of Mother’s Day 2008. Care to hear about it? It was pretty bad. I woke up on Mother’s Day morning and went…
Cafe Rio 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…
He Made His Own Shirt
He is so proud of his sewing skills. I feel guilty for discouraging him from wearing it out of the house. Someday he will thank me. For more Wordless Wednesday, see 5 Minutes for Mom.
When Kids Pick The Neighbors’ Flowers
Say thank you, with a kiss. Put them in a vase on the kitchen table. Tell them not to pick the neighbor’s flowers anymore!! And then pray that the neighbors don’t look in the window. For more Wordless Wednesday, see 5 Minutes for Mom. And be sure to check out my WordFUL Wednesday post, What…
What’s Your Animal?
Mama Kat’s Writing Prompt #2 stuck out to me this week: Relay an entertaining conversation or string of emails you recently had with someone. If only….If only I had the chat stream between me and my friend, Safire, the other night. It’s a shame that the conversation is lost in Facebook chat-land somewhere, because it…
A Nine-Year-Old’s To-Do List
I was cleaning up the family room just now and found this to-do list. Number eight and thirteen (and the fact that he was completely serious) were so funny, I had to share: I can’t wait to see how he completes his list. What would be on YOUR kids’ to-do list?
The World May Never Know….
What is the answer to that age-old question? How many licks DOES it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop? Have you ever tried to find out the answer? This weekend, I over-heard my teenage daughter talking on the phone with her friend. She said, in all seriousness, “I was…
Not Me
Now that we’re back to our normal schedule of school, work, and all that fun stuff, I am happy to report that I did not sleep in past 8:00 every morning for the last 2 weeks. I totally stayed on my schedule of waking up at 6:20. I am not one of those lazy vacation…
Christmas Photo Outtakes
Capturing a decent family picture is a tricky business. It’s hard enough when you’re working with a photographer. But add the additional element of tripod and timer and it’s an adventure, to say the least. I was looking through last year’s Christmas-season pictures in preparation for I Heart Faces‘ Hilarious Outtakes theme this week. I…
1-2-3 Bypass
Last night, I came up to my bedroom to head to bed and found CandyMan at my computer, watching silly old videos of the kids when they were small. What memories these videos brought back! And how much my kids have changed. In this short clip, KitKat was 7, Necco was 4 1/2 (the same…
