Do you guys ever fell like you just need to unplug for awhile? Sometimes, with the blog and Instagram and Facebook and twitter, I just feel like I’m constantly online, I constantly have my face in an iPad, smartphone, or computer screen. I decided this past week to take some time of from the online […]...
Have you ever noticed how moms get all the glory on Mother’s Day, with fancy breakfast in bed and whatnot…and dads get……..ties. I don’t even honestly know that many dads who ever wear ties very often. But that’s neither here nor there, because this is about breakfast. For fathers. I decided that this year, Dad […]...
I realize it has been over a week since I posted any new recipes, but you guys, my mom was visiting me last week! Before this latest visit, I hadn’t seen her in two years. That’s just stupid. So I was a little busy and distracted last week. It was fantastic. We ate a lot […]...
You know what are not nice? Geese. When I was probably 14 or so, I didn’t know they were so territorial. There was a flock of them…a gaggle? Anyway, a lot of them on the hillside by the pool at the church camp I attended. I was all, “Heh heh. Watch this.” I ran at […]...
It’s official. I’ve found myself on the road to being a Crazy Doll Lady. Which is a slightly more creepy, way less stinky, second cousin to a Crazy Cat Lady. What exactly makes a Crazy Doll Lady anyway? I mean, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that a Crazy Cat Lady meets at least […]...
I was going to talk to you guys about something today. I think it was gonna be funny. I don’t even remember. I don’t remember because I’m sitting here, trying to write this, minding my own business, when I see something out of the corner of my eye. About three inches away FROM MY FACE. […]...
This is a post of few words. Because cinnamon swirl french toast speaks for itself. And because I’m exhausted. The Hubster was on duty this past week. It’s a Tuesday to Tuesday thing. He has to stand duty, like, every three weeks or something…I forget the rotation. They’re always weird. Anyway. He was on duty […]...
It’s Black Friday today. Here, in the U.S. Stupid, stupid Black Friday. You may recall that I ventured out on Black Friday last year. I was in Minnesota, and things were pretty tame; nothing as wild as I anticipated. This year, though, I’m in Oregon, and all signs point to there being high levels of […]...
* Before I say anything, I feel duty bound to tell you: these waffles were in the top three biggest hits list with my entire family. Huge deal here, people. I thought you’d want to know. * When we lived in Vermont, there was some really fun places to ski. The mountains are smaller, but […]...
I swear, it’s like my family doesn’t even appreciate how much I love them. I take the time to think about them, to remember their needs, to get them the things they like, and how do they repay me? They let bananas rot on the counter instead of eating them. It’s not just bananas, though. […]...
