{Live} Spring Cleaning With Green Works

So, no one told me that one day I would have to do housework. Kind of like Cher in Clueless, who sees learning to parallel park as pointless since “everywhere has valet” (and who I’ve drawn my own parallels with here and here), I thought, why learn - or even do it - when there’s [...]

{Play} Weather Blog Hop | Make Your Own Cloud

I’m thrilled to bring you another great blog hop started by one of my kid blogger buddies. You’ll find so many weather-related activities, crafts, experiments, and play ideas in the linky at the bottom of this post.

{Craft} DIY Personalized Bottle Caps

For Hubby’s recent 40th, the theme was Curry, Cake and a Keg. We had a keg of Sierra Nevada, lots of spicy Thai curries, and a special cake. Hubby said he didn’t want any type of theme-y cutesiness, but I had to make something. So, I ended up making two things - homemade tile coasters (like [...]

{Play} Book Club For Babies And Toddlers

Book clubs are not just a chance for exasperated mommies to get together and drink too much wine. And as for book clubs where actual reading and literary discussion take place, they’re not just for reading age kids. Babies and toddlers are the perfect age for Book Club and will love this pre-reading activity. Years [...]

{Live} My Trip to Paradise

I never thought I would say this, but I left my kids and loved every minute of it! Now, you know that I miss my kids even when I run to the grocery store without them, so this was a big surprise for me. But to be perfectly honest, a full ten days without them [...]

{Live} I’m Back And Pleased As Punch!

I’m finally back from my overseas trip - without the kids or Hubby - and am happy to report I survived! More on that later when I can dig myself out of the jet lag haze. Just wanted to share my excitement that our Sparkly Treasure Box was included in Elmer’s Memory Keeping Holiday catalog! [...]

{Live} Bye For Now + Raspberry Milk & Love Coasters

If you can believe it - I can’t - I’m off on holiday WITHOUT the kids. I’m going on about the 20th breakdown for the week, missing them so utterly madly, even though I’m still here. But, it’s a well-needed rest and an opportunity that won’t come around for many years more, so here I [...]

{Live} Winner Winner Chicken Dinner #LaRomanella #CBias

One of my many many New Year’s Resolutions is to become a better cook so we all can eat more healthfully and save money by skipping readymade or take out foods. When the opportunity to shop for and try La Romanella products came up, I thought it would be the perfect chance for me to [...]

{Live} Mindful Living | What I Scored On Black Friday And What I’m Buying This Cyber Monday

November 28, 2011 in All Posts, Live, Outlaw Posts

You could say we experienced the antithesis of Black Friday the day after Thanksgiving.Instead of mauling other shoppers for a discounted Christmas sweater, we spent three quiet hours at a local wat and emerged with the equivalent of five shopping bags less of unnecessary mental, emotional and spiritual garbage than the worthless material goods we would have [...]
