Stop and Focus
“Just focus on one thing.” That’s what my Fab Hub said to me tonight when I was having one of my over-stressed holy-crap-there-is-too-much-on-my-plate meltdowns.

Unintentional Hiatus
This is unprecedented. I haven’t cooked a real meal in my own kitchen (or anyone else’s) in…let’s see…eight days. I don’t think that has ever happened before.

Making Good on Some Promises
Sometimes life gets away from me. It’s kind of like an unruly dog. He snaps the leash and takes off running. I chase after him, the world a blur as it whizzes by… A few weeks ago, I did a post that included quite a bit of food. In that post, I mentioned that I…

Stay At Home In Your Pajamas Day

Mother-Daughter Haircuts
Kidzilla and I took a trip to the salon for haircuts this afternoon. Finally! We were both way overdue and it feels great to have a fresh cut and style. I always love and hate my hair right after a cut. On the one hand, it feels healthy and smooth and what I call “swingy.” …

Friday Favorites (on Saturday)
I love Friday nights. There is something about the start of a few days with no commitments, no obligations, and only the possibility of filling it with whatever you choose to do or not do, as the case may be. Somehow Friday was the longest day ever. Usually, the day flies by pretty fast for me,…

Turning the Page
Time passed. Phase completed. Mission accomplished. My breath of fresh air last night gave me just the inspiration I needed to push through to these “ends.” Now I can turn the page, smooth the book open, and begin the next chapter.
