exactly one year ago, I was on stage, clomping around in clunky shoes, thick, nude stockings, and a tent-like tunic from the 50s, while performing as Mrs. Martha Arable, Fern's mother in a community theatre production of Charlotte's Web. Right this minute, exactly one year ago, I was tired. Tired, and a bit disheveled. See? See, that's me, ready to leave for my evening performance. ...
Scene from the living room floor
Wishing you a peaceful, featherful, lovely Shabbat. Shalom, chaverim.
Sometimes, when I post pictures like
these, I forget that my grandparents read my blog daily. Oh well. Dance on, twisted sister.
c-o-o-l. s-i-s-t-r.
These pictures that I just spotted are hard copy evidence of how no matter what, she will always be the cooler sister. Oh, and in case you were wondering, she just informed that in these shots, she is doing The Twist with an Italian gentleman who doesn't speak of a word of English. Yeah, I want to be her ...
Ready…Aim…
Today, I experienced my first fire drill of the school year. It just so happened to also be the first fire drill of my students' lives. They are 2. What do you expect? And so, as the alarm blared across the halls and trilled in our little ears, and I tried, frantically, to put little coats on little bodies, and I ...
Tea for Two, Tea for Three
"Hello madame, can I interest you in a tea treat? Perhaps a petit four, madame? Oh! The pink triangle, an excellent choice!" -My husband, in a British accent, as I overheard him having a tea party with the baby. By the way, in case you were wondering, every single member of my family is enjoying this new tea set, Daddies ...
Hanukkah is the thing with feathers
I know that I have been a little quiet lately, and my only excuse is that it's Hanukkah. And I'm me. I've been busy. But, I can't let another night go without telling you about my most special, night 1 present. Here it is. And in case my fabulously clear and professional looking photobooth picture doesn't do it justice, It's a lariat, long ...

do these ray bans come in bifocals?
This evening, as I was picking out my outfit for the big night out, I came across a black leather mini skirt that I hadn't seen in years. To my surprise and delight, it fit perfectly, and I decided to go for it. I felt like I was in college, again. As I got in my car, ...
here we grow
2 years ago, on Thanksgiving, my husband told me that he wanted us to have a baby. Now, I had decided that I wanted to have babies with this man long before, but that does not mean that it was not amazingly, incredibly wonderful to hear those words from the man I loved. I will never forget how we ...
