Today I weep for the loss of Paul Newman. There are not many actors I consider great, in fact, he may be the only one. I have loved him since I was young, and the older we both got, the more I loved him. We spat watermelon seeds in “The Long Hot Summer”. I was […]
As in YOU, blogger friends. Let me back up a bit before going forward. Last night after midnight, AFTER I WON playing my “Business Stimulation Only” Football Card, which is “not to be used in violation of any law” – yay! – I watched Waitress. Waitress stars Keri Russell, who, you may remember as Felicity […]
Please excuse me while I brag…but tonite I m a very proud Mama. Well, I am always proud, but tonight is just over the top proud.For his birthday, Seven’s nurse Tina (from when he was in the hospital the week after he was born) gave him a little sailboat. The sailboat has little man that […]
She being Paula Deen. I had a 40% off coupon for A.C. Moore the other day (kind of like a Michaels) and it was seriously burning a hole in my pocket. Unfortunately, there was very little money in said pocket, yet it usually feels like my hips and or butt are on fire for one […]
We are, right? I mean, all of you comment on how yummy something I made looks (even when you KNOW yours looked WAY better) – you give me encouragement when I write those crazy “disappearing” posts, and you sign up to bake cookies for strangers just because I asked you to. So yes, you ARE […]
For me, that’s the US. Obviously. Have you read the way I talk?! So why have our home country as this week’s Challenge? Well, we are still on Olympic time, and what better way to show our support than to put a picture of Michael Phelps on our cooking blogs? Umm, I mean, than to […]
What happens in Mexico, stays in Mexico… This week’s country of choice comes from Natashya of Living in the Kitchen with Puppies. Of course, there is no way that poor Natashya could know that yes, we have in fact been to Mexico, too, and that yes, I have lame-o stories about it. I don’t sway […]
Wow people! I have been trying to get to everyone’s TWD post…so give me a little time. I like to comment on as many as humanly possible. However, I am in the middle of uploading picture after picture for tomorrow’s big THANK YOU Operation Baking GALS Post, (which would have been MUCH easier when I […]
The blogging world amazes me. Very few of us actually know each other personally, and yet, I consider so many of you to be friends. Especially now, more than ever. When I sent out an email yesterday to a few bloggers asking for help, I hoped maybe a couple would respond. Boy was I surprised […]
There are two kinds of people – Greeks, and everyone else who wish they was Greek. Well, at least that’s what the father in My Big Fat Greek Wedding assumed. He could be right, you know? Life is a whole lot simpler there, or at least it seems like it is anyway. This week’s choice […]
That’s right, I wanna talk about ME, I wanna talk about I, wanna talk about Number One oh My Me My… Well, not really. But I’ve been tagged again. Oh yeah, uhhh-giiin. People just can’t get enough of me, that’s all I have to say about that. I’m an internet rock star, just ask me. […]
Seven is staying the night with my folks, so I have had a lazy afternoon/evening complete with a nap AND a bath. A LONG one. I know you mommies out there are SOOO envious right about now. (Jamie, Jayne, and all you others, you know who you are!) But there is a kicker to the […]
