Well, by now I’m sure you have all realized that I’m not afraid to just say it out loud– you both can and should have a hot and spicy love life in your marriage!
I’ve tossed a few ideas around here but, in case you’d like to read even more on the topic, [...]
I have to admit that the title of this book– The Weird Sisters– made me giggle. I have a sister… and we have been known to be weird! Of course, the book’s title was making a Shakespearean reference, not talking about how my sis and I like to order the item with the [...]
My party planning generally goes something like this:
Start thinking of “theme” ideas in early November for my December and January babies. Scramble to organize holidays/gatherings/breaks/vacations/etc. Send invitations out– plenty early– and promptly start having heart palpitations as I realize there’s no backing out now and I really don’t know what the heck [...]
If you’ve ever had a baby, you’ve most likely heard the old adage: Sleep begets sleep.
And, it seems in most cases, it’s totally true. Babies who nap well seem to also sleep more soundly at night. Withholding naps in hopes that sheer exhaustion will cause a deep sleep? Rarely works.

Isn’t it always a little amazing to look back over the past year and reflect for a bit? I love to sit by the tree-light (my tree will remain up until the Epiphany because that’s how we roll) and ponder what went well and how I’d like to do better next time. It’s fun [...]
I hear her daddy’s voice softly murmur “The End” and I know just what to expect.
I get up from the couch and go stand at the end of her hall, arms open, waiting.
And she runs. She runs as fast as her two year old legs in footie jammies will [...]

I read a post a couple days ago… and, while cloaked in faith and beauty, it left me feeling bitter. I’m choosing not to link to it, not because I don’t want to drive any traffic there (though since the site was much larger than my own, that’s kind [...]
I love this recipe for its simplicity. It relies on inexpensive pantry ingredients, basic spices, and simple cheeses, but it totally does the trick. There’s whole grain, protein, and veggie involved. Cheap and kid-pleasing, it’s a good one to have up your sleeve.
Even the measurements are easy. Ready?
1 cup [...]
Sometimes, I think I’m the only one who uses adverbs anymore. I mean, did I miss the memo that said “adjectives are the new adverbs”? Am I just behind the times? What am I missing?
Try these phrases on for size–
“… to help you shop smarter!”
