If I don’t keep my cupboards stocked with my kids’ favorite cereals, I’m likely to hear cries of “There’s nothing to EAT!” until I get the shelves restocked. Despite their sometimes-picky tastes, my kids have got it good, and they know it. I’ve spent enough time at schools – as a young teacher many…
2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Review
Note: I received a 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SE AWC to test drive around town for one week in order to facilitate my honest review. No monetary compensation was received and all opinions are my own. If you’ve read any of my previous car reviews before, you’ll know that I am not a car expert….
2013 Kia Rio 5-Door Review
I was given a 2013 Kia Rio 5-door (SX) to test drive for one week. No monetary compensation was received and all thoughts are my own. I like to start off each of my car review posts with an additional disclaimer: I am not an expert on cars. I don’t fully understand what a…
Just Write
I was on twitter this morning, after completing a hand-out for a class I’m teaching tomorrow night for the youth at church. I happened to peek at my stream just after my wonderfully inspiring friend, Heather tweeted “@HeatheroftheEO: It’s your computer and you can free write if you want to – #JustWrite https://ow.ly/lsPyZ.” Not knowing…
Share Your Memories & Win at #YesMemory Twitter Party
I had a fabulous childhood. I remember running around the neighborhood with my best friends, playing with Barbies with my sisters, setting up lemonade stands on the corner. Actually, I recall only tolerating the lemonade stands because Elizabeth loved selling lemonade. Or was it the thrill of making money? Either way, those lemonade stands are…

Two legs attached to a head. Do your kids do anything silly like this? Linked up to Wordful Wednesday, Wordish Wednesday, and…
Olive Garden – Dinner Today & Dinner Tomorrow
When CandyMan and I were newly married, we had a little incentive program. If we could get our task list completed each week, we would reward ourselves with all-you-can-eat soup, salad, and breadsticks at the Olive Garden. We loved the food, but best of all, we loved the value. It was the ultimate treat for…
Why Congress Should Protect SNAP Funding in the Farm Bill
Looking back on the last several years, I might claim that my family and I have had it pretty hard. However, when I needed to look up SNAP to see what it stood for, I was hit with the stark reality: my kids and I have been richly blessed. SNAP is a Federal nutrition program…
An Avengers Birthday
AJ turned 7 years old today! I can’t believe my baby is 7! As is our tradition, he woke up early this morning and opened his presents before the majority of the family left for school. On the eve of his birthday, AJ watched Iron Man for the first time. It was perfect timing, because…
Go From Drab to Fab with Allegra #ClearBeauty
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I love the Spring. I love the regrowth of flowers and grass and trees. I love the fresh air coming in through my windows and the warmth and sun before the Summer humidity hits. But I do not love the allergies that come with Spring. For…
