One of the main reasons I have cookie recipes all the time on here is because I have sort of instituted a tradition at my husband’s work. Every Friday I make cookies for them to celebrate the end of the week. I love all the people he works with, so cookies are the [...]

Oh, really, Mr. Fortune Cookie? Well, then. If you insist!

As you can see, I have acquired yet another crafty hobby. That fortune cookie actually came after I had already bought the yarn and needle, but hey, it is still neat. This whole crochet thing is quite interesting! The bracelet above [...]

Okay okay, I get it! I’ll get Twitter! Sheesh. I was enjoying my crabby Grandma mentality avoiding new technology….
Anyway, so I have Twitter, now what do I do with it? From what I can tell, it it like blogging, but for people with extreme A.D.D. So if anyone else has [...]

Geometry Wars: Evolved 2 is by far one of my favorite games on XBox Live. Fast paced, techno music, bright flashy lights, lots and lots of shooting, and multi player: what’s not to love? Also I can play in short bursts while the baby is napping or distracted by a video. If [...]

Lemon Strawberry Sandwich Cremes

So that nasty bug went all around the family, but we all seem to be getting better. I apologize for the lame week in posts. I’ll try to make it up to you guys next week
Until then, however, I don’t want to leave you high and dry. So here is some [...]

I think I should put a sign over our door that says “Abandon all hope, ye who enter here,” or “Plague house” to warn everyone that comes by that we have the bug of the year. The Professor is getting over his quite well, though, and Alex seems to have lucked out with just [...]

The Professor is so amazing! He’s only 14 months old and he has MASTERED sharing. I mean, how nice of him to share a virus with the entire family? Such a sweet boy.
The little dude handled all the vomiting like a pro. He seemed quite amused when he threw up strongly [...]
