I’m Thankful for Anthropologie..and For These Kids Too, Of Course…

I don’t have memories of large family gatherings for Thanksgiving. We moved away from family when I was just a little girl so most of the time it was just the four of us.  Sometimes we would gather with friends and sometimes my mom would invite someone over who didn’t have anywhere to go. My…

When Fashion is on the Hot Seat…

You will find me over at Four Plus An Angel today.  I was interviewed on the now world famous Hot Seat. Turns out a lot of women have many, many burning questions about fashion.   I wish I had the answers. I wish I could take you all shopping to Paris and Milan. Hell..New York….

The Importance of Date Night…

Today for vlogtalk I am talking to you about something very important and serious – the time you take out to spend with just your partner. The dates, the walks, the quiet moments alone.  The time you need away from the kids. We carve out at least two times per month for a quality date…

The Summer Tradition of Camp…

I heard the other night on the news that we should consider a “less structured Summer.” I need a moment. As a stay at home mom, who does love her children more than anything in the whole wide world, I frankly cannot handle a less structured Summer. Now I was a working mom at one…

My Favorite Meal when I’m not Dieting..

The more time I spend with kids, the more my palate suffers. Fine French food has nothing on frozen chicken nuggets.  Why go out for Thai food when you can make Kraft dinner?  Bake fresh bread when Wonder is still in business? Somebody save me. Don’t worry – six more days until wine o’clock and…

How to Garden if you hate worms..

The vlog this week will showcase my amazing garden.  I have friends with gorgeous gardens. Like her and her and her.  But I think mine wins hands down. You’ll skip off to the garden center after watching this. Or drink wine. Whichever is easier for you.

I have voices in my head….

I need you to know where I spend most of my time…it’s nowhere in particular..just inside my head. This space is massive. Eloise gets mad at me because I talk to myself all of the time. I say “oh honey, I only verbalize 10% of it.”  Eloise tells me I’m crazy. Perhaps accurate.

VlogTalk – My un-Makeup Routine..

I am joining up with VlogTalk today. I was suppose to write about smoking for The Red Dress Club.  But every post I started ending up with something that no one in my family really needed to read. It’s good to self-edit at times. I missed that gene, so give me some back pats for…

Who are these strange people in my blog..

Joining in Mama Kat’s Writing Workshop again for the vlog option – introducing the key players in my blog…cats, kids, delivery men, sunglasses..you know the usual suspects… It’s a pleasure to formally introduce everyone..

Where, When, and How Long I Blog – The Dirty Truth Vlog Style

I’m joining Mama Kat’s  World Famous Writing Workshop again this week. Basically so I could vlog again. Last week was good for me. Was it good for you? Back to me.  I’m lazy like that when it comes to writing. Also, my eight year old upstaged me this week with her poem…so I am pretty…

Mama Kat’s Writing Workshop – The Vlog

I am participating in Mama Kat’s Writing Workshop this week. The prompt I chose was the vlog prompt because I wanted everyone to see the big zit on my chin and also because this may put an end to the endless questions I get about my ridiculous blog name. “Tell us the story behind the…

Blissdom Introduction Vlog…

Happy Friday!  In only 5 days I leave for my first Blissdom Conference. I am so excited to meet and connect with so many amazing and creative people! I know it can be so hard to meet someone for the first time – especially in a large group setting – so I thought I would…
