Manic Monday . . .

So, for my very first blog meme, I discovered something to take the pressure off my manic Mondays over at Manic Monday.  

What is the sexiest part of the body?      The funny bone.

If you kissed a frog, who would you like it to turn into?     Clive Owen.
What do you have stuck up on your refrigerator right now?  Ooooh, it [...]

We lost . . . again.

Crapola!
Today, my soccer team got annihilated!  And, I mean completely annihilated.  10 - zip.  We went down, down, down and couldn’t come back!  I was personally taken out three times and decided it wasn’t worth it to get THAT hurt.  Our league’s unwritten motto is “it’s all for fun!”  My head is still hurting, but I [...]

What am I going to wear?

Tonight, my mum is coming over to babysit so DH and I can have a date night! 
I can hardly believe it!  It has been so long since we went out just the two of us and the first question that comes to mind is what shall I wear?  Not, where are we going, what shall [...]

I can be sneaky too, Mrs Seinfeld . . .

So,  I recently purchased Jessica Seinfeld’s book Deceptively Delicious and could kick myself!  I could have written it myself.
Reading the book made me wonder just how many of us are out there with our quirky mom/chef invented recipes just like Seinfeld? The whole lawsuit against her is ridiculous as who hasn’t been there, seen it and [...]

Renaissance Festival, here we come . . .

So, today I stupidly agreed to chaperon DS#1’s school field trip to Tampa’s Renaissance Festival along with my 8 and 1 year old!  I know, I know . . . what on earth was I thinking?  I hardly slept the night before for worrying about losing a child to a jester or a jousting knight, [...]

$60 per week on groceries . . . for my family?

Recently, I was beginning to wonder about the rising costs of my weekly grocery bill as lately, I found myself spending $250 per week or more to feed my family of five.  Granted, I know I am paying more for organic, natural choices and we do like our snacks and desserts, but still is it just me [...]

What the . . . where did THAT come from?

So, yesterday my oldest son was just plain acting up.  He was antagonizing his little brothers, not listening to a word I was saying and generally making a nuisance of himself as you do when you are a pre-teen, I suppose.  Well, I had finally had it and started yelling at him to behave when out [...]

What is a crunchy mommy?

So, my sister asked me today, what is a crunchy mommy?  Actually, she asked me that except there was an expletive thrown in there too!  She might be younger than me, but she has the mouth of an old, drunken sailor!
Well, lil sis . . .it is a mommy who really loves Crunchies(choccie bar from the UK)!!  [...]

Tuesday Toot . . .

So, today I am participating in Blogamama.com’s Tuesday Toot where every Tuesday, you get to post an accomplishment that you have done.  As moms sometimes, we are quick in praising our kids and others about their accomplishments but we are “shy” when it comes to our achievements so … here is your chance.

I happen to LOVE [...]
