When All Else Fails, Resort to Cats or Food
I’m in the middle of about nineteen things this week. I have a few great things to share, but none really requiring an entire post. And so, in the interest of efficiency, I offer you just a few quick items of interest. First, this may just be my new favorite recipe ever.

Ten Things of Thankful – Back to School Edition
It’s been kind of a crazy week. Clearly, I was in absolutely no condition to start school. I cannot remember being this tired during the first week of school. I suspect part of it was the near-90s temps coupled with like 98% humidity. Horrible. And a definite part of the struggle for me was that Kidzilla and the…

Epic Diaper Fail: A Babyzilla Story
A post inspired by the word diaper? I’ve so got this. There are some family stories that become legendary the moment they happen. They are the stories that are so completely unbelievable, that they simply have to be true. You know the kind – the ones that make people say “wow, you can’t make up stuff…

Brave
Have you seen the movie Brave? Last summer we took Kidzilla to see her first in-theater movie and that was the one. I am not a huge Disney Princess fan, but this one worked for me. This princess, Merida, is reluctant at best. She wants no part of her mother’s arranged marriage plan; when the competition…

Hidden Talents
Sometimes, people give gifts to other people that may not necessarily be the best choice for the recipient. The thought may be completely generous and well-intentioned, but sometimes the gift and the recipient are just not a match. On Easter Sunday, my aunt brought Kidzilla a cute little fabric Easter basket that contained two tiny…

Growing Up
I looked around the room at the other Mommies and Daddies. Mostly, it was Mommies. Younger, older, shorter, taller, heavier, thinner, dressed for work, dressed in what had to be pajamas…they were all the same. One by one, they dropped off children for the first day of Vacation Bible School. Some came in with the children,…

Why My Wife is Awesome – A Guest Post by Fab Hub
Earlier this month, I wrote a post inspired by a Mama Kat’s prompt about “My Crush” – the Fab Hub. This week, when one of Kat’s prompts was to write fifteen reasons why I am awesome, I suggested to the Fab Hub that he should write that post for me. He did. Please welcome the…

Pinterest Pasta
We need to talk about spaghetti. Because first, everybody loves spaghetti. Am I right? And then, because look at this…
