So after watching Twilight the other night, and liking it, I found myself pleasantly, and strangely, ‘caught up’ on stuff last night. Nothing was on TV, surprise, surprise, so I suggested watching Nights In Rodanthe.
My husband and I both had our laptops out, but nothing really important to work on, so I thougtht this [...]
I’m no longer a ‘Twilight’ virgin. On Friday night, my husband and I watched Twilight. I haven’t read the book.
My take on this phenomenon? It was good. I have to admit, it’s a perfect movie to get sucked into (no pun intended)…
Stephanie Meyer is a genius in terms of a commercial plot (and I [...]
My son and I made cookies last week. We bake a lot. He loves the measuring, pouring, etc. etc… He doesn’t seem to like the clean-up, but that’s a post for another day- we’re working on that.
So, how do you make your cookies soft? You take them out of the oven a couple [...]
I want to pass on some good news for mom consumers….
We bought this couch a few months ago from Havertys. They offer a ‘5 Year Furniture Protection Plan’. It cost just over $100 extra. At first I wasn’t going to get it, but what really got me was the No-Stain Treatment they put on [...]
Yes, I’m talking about the lovable Muppet.
I was watching an NCAA tournament game the other night and the cameras panned over to an older gentleman in the stands, a former basketball player, named Kermit… I stopped paying attention to the commentators at that point and my mind wandered (as it does quite frequently)…
‘… Kermit, you never hear [...]
The other night my Big Guy and Little Guy were playing, just after dinner. I was straightening up, as I always seem to be doing (aren’t we all)…
And I flipped on TMZ. Yes, I admit it. A few minutes of celebrity gossip never hurt anybody…
Some footage of Michael Jackson was on the TV [...]
I am on strictly no-carbs this week to lose a few pounds that have snuck up on me. No-carb eating can be rough, I know this from experience, but it takes off pounds like nothing else I’ve found. So- an egg for breakfast, a salad for lunch, and a protein and [...]
Ah, emails. I usually delete, delete, delete those forwarded mass emails from people. But occasionally I read them. Here are a few scenarios (courtesy of a mass forwarded email) to help you maintain a ‘Healthy Level of Insanity’:
* At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and point a Hair Dryer [...]
I was reading a terrific blogger buddy of mine the other day who also writes for one of DC Metro Moms sister sites, Philly Moms, and lol laughed out loud. She was talking about telling her husband exactly what to get her for her birthday, and if he didn’t have time to get [...]
Happy St. Patrick’s Day Everyone!
And I do mean everyone- since everybody is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day.
I’m not blogging from The Dubliner in Downtown DC;
I used to start every St. Patrick’s Day at The Dubliner, my husband always took off work and we’d ride Metro down. An old-fashioned Irish pub is a nice [...]
