Tonight, we will be turning our clocks back. It is daylight savings time. And, the time as come for you to learn a few things about me that you don't already know: 1) I hate cilantro and parsley. The presence of either of these two green garnishes will ruin a meal for me. 2) I am terribly afraid of ...
dog duty
Last night, I did the late night dog duty for the first time in (Wait. Love? How long have we had Lola? Yeah, we got her in March. 2 years and 8 months? OK, thanks!) 2 years and 8 months. It's usually the husband's job, but hey, I figured I owed him one. Anyway, as I was trudging sleepily down ...
What’s in a name?
Last night, I was just stumbling around on the computer, and came across this little article about celebrity baby names. And yes, I'm aware that it's from Us Weekly. Wanna make something of it? Anyway, I have to admit, I was kind of tickled to see this lengthy analysis on David Boreanaz's daughter, Bardot Vita. Why, you ask? Well, perhaps ...
election night.
Elections have always been very important to me. They were important to me when I was in elementary school and the older kids staged a mock Presidential race. (Oh, and in case you were wondering, the cute, older boy who played Bill Clinton? Yeah, that would be my husband. ) They were important to me in middle school, ...
It is she.

I am special... I have been working with children "professionally" for the past 13 years (which is half of my life), and can safely say that ...
an ode to a Bubbie
Bubbie, dearest--how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I'd wax poetic (har!) about all your charms, but don't have enough time in my days. A Bubbie devoted, you have been, since the dawn of this baby's time, when your favorite little star was a mere twinkle in your eye. Before she was born, you knitted for her, cooed to her, and ...
Catch-38
"The next day I tried on two labels; Classic Vuitton and New Mommy." -Because, when you're sick in bed with the stomach flu, you might as well catch up with your homegirl, Carrie Bradshaw.
I love it when we’re cruisin’ together.
When you become a parent, things change. And by things, I mean everything. Your baby is born, you hear her wail, and in that moment, the life you once knew has been traded in for something new. And trust me, you're trading up here, for sure. But still, it takes some getting used to. You stop sleeping. You worry about things you never ...
wordless weekdays
Hi! Remember me? It's been awhile, hasn't it? Aw, thanks, I've missed you, too! You see, this week I was feeling a bit under the weather, and, apparently, so has Wordpress. It isn't that I haven't had a lot to say, I just haven't had a way to say it. Like, on Wednesday-- It was to be a Wordless Wednesday, for this picture says it all. Because ...
