Pin itI am making a pact with myself this week to make it to the gym a minimum of three times. I have been procrastinating and coming up with every excuse in the book NOT to over the last few months, most of those excuses revolving around my baby. BUT, it’s time to get my [...]

Pin itChristy is visiting me and last night, while I was preparing dinner, she schooled me about trimming the fat of the pot roast. Apparently, I am supposed to trim the fat BEFORE I put the roast into the crock pot, not AFTER. DOH! It totally makes sense now that she ever so gently mentioned [...]
Pin itThea, who blogs over at I’m a Drama Mama, has been a die hard Sister since we opened our virtual doors back in November. When we brainstormed new contributors, Thea’s name was the first to pop into our heads since she worked so hard with Beth on Tales from the Scales. And it’s our [...]

Pin itWhat’s new? How are things going? Ready for winter to be over? My skin and head are so incredibly itchy I could die. I have totally had to borrow my husband’s dandruff shampoo this week. It’s bad. How embarrassing. And at the gym? My face just BURNS when I sweat. At least I have [...]
Pin it My laptop hard drive crashed on Saturday. Forty-eight hours ago. I am without my lifeline to the outside world and it feels so wrong. Dell promises to have another hard drive in my sweaty, shaking palms soon, hopefully by tomorrow. In the meantime, I’m forced to use my dinosaur desktop, which won’t even [...]
