I was reading Mom Spark the other day and came across a fun post: Coffee Mugs that Tell a Story. After reading Amy’s post, I walked to my kitchen, found my 6 favorite mugs, set them out on the kitchen table, and started taking pictures with my new iPhone. My kids apparently thought I had…
Some People Should Not Wear Skinny Jeans
And I am one of those people. I heard from a friend the other night that Target had a bunch of jeans on sale for $5. FIVE dollars for new jeans?? I’m in! I needed a few things at the store the other day, so I figured I’d kill two birds with one stone and…
Boy Talk
Last night after dinner, Twizzler (my 10 year old son) and I headed to my best friend’s house. Tonight is the annual Cub Scout Pinewood Derby and the poor kid didn’t have a car yet. The block of wood has been sitting on a shelf in our family room for weeks. Parent fail. Knowing that…
100 Things
Is it really Thursday already? And the end of the day Thursday to boot? The holiday on Monday and the snow day on Tuesday, followed by exam week at the high school (early dismissals) has made for a very mixed up week.I even missed WordFul Wednesday yesterday because I thought it was Tuesday. How sad…
My Motivation
This year, I did something I typically don’t do. I made a New Years Resolution. I usually steer clear of the ever-popular New Years Resolutions because the idea of setting goals once a year has always turned me off. I like the idea of always striving to be better and setting goals as they are…
Introducing the Coffee Talk Community
I feel compelled to start out by disclosing that I am not a coffee drinker. I never have been and I don’t plan on adding it into my morning routine. But that doesn’t mean I don’t love the community that coffee often inspires. And I love anything that brings women together for easy-going, laid-back girl…
Salvation, Courtesy of Maytag
I’ve spent considerable time over the last 6 months complaining about our broken dishwasher. On a good day, I would spend a full hour washing dishes-for-seven by hand. On an average day, I spent closer to 2 hours washing dishes. And on a bad day, my kitchen looked like this: Stacks and stacks of rinsed…
Mourning my Microwave
When CandyMan and I got married in April 1995, one of our first purchases on that big wedding-money-shopping-spree was a microwave. I purposefully bought the largest microwave I could find, with all the bells and whistles, similar to this GE Profile, because I knew that we’d be using it a lot. And I wanted something…
My Love for Carmex
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Carmex®. All opinions are 100% mine. My love affair with Carmex started when I was a teenager and heard that applying Carmex to a cold sore would speed healing. Menthol and phenol, two of the ingredients in Carmex, both have antiseptic qualities, helping to…
The Pier 1 Fairy to the Rescue!
This post brought to you by Pier 1 Imports. All opinions are 100% mine. I admit it. I’m not the holiday entertaining type. It’s Candyman who typically makes the push for inviting people over for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Despite the fact that we have a family of seven already, he swears that holidays just aren’t…
