I made some spirits PR contacts when I wrote for b5media and amazingly enough, they still email me with sweet cocktail recipes and have been know to send me the occasional bottle of amazing booze. Since these cocktails have been sitting in my in-box for a little while just waiting for the perfect time to [...]

If there’s one thing that keeps things interesting in a house with two kids under four, it’s the fights. Epic fights involving teeth, nails and lots and lots of screaming. I’m not the only one, right? Please tell me I’m not the only one. In the beginning, Cara and Ollie were thick as thieves. And [...]

Generally when I do something stupid I think about how I’m going to word it on here since I’m a big dork. I’ll get back to the stupid here in a second. One 2 One Network sent me a CD to review by a band named One eskimO. I like music. I like free music. [...]

So on that silly cryptic post, I mentioned I’m curating for BlissReads and I know some of you are wondering what curating even means. If you’ve heard of Holy Kaw! – an offshoot of Alltop – then you know what I’m talking about. Mashable does some similar stuff though they seem to be focusing more [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Freschetta. All opinions are 100% mine. You know at the end of the month, Tucker always goes to drill and this past weekend was one of those weekends. For the most part, the kids and I had an uneventful weekend that involved quite a [...]

Tucker’s going to drill and that means we have to stock up on things like milk and bread and such. It’s not that I can’t go by myself, it’s that I don’t want to. Since it was lunch time and we were out anyway, Tucker said we’d run through a fast food joint on the [...]

I was probably in third grade when my teacher very delicately told me I had “diarrhea of the mouth.” And looking back on it, I realize she had a point. I’ve always talked a lot and if I hear my mom say one more time, “Think before you speak!” I’ll probably staple my mouth shut. [...]
