The Great American Seafood Cook Off

July 31, 2008 in la familia

If you know me, you know I’m a foodie. My husband gets to hear my recipes, ideas, and spins on traditional food. Unfortunately for me he doesn’t like seafood as much as I do. Our child, hates it. I’m not sure how I got mixed up with these two, but thankfully my father in law [...]

Holy Kitties

July 31, 2008 in daily grind

You know I might as well just start a category for stupid things I see in the news. I swear. If Sydney were here she’d have been crying her eyes out over this one. The local news reported that a woman in a small town outside of Fort Wayne was made to put more than [...]

Almost Over

July 27, 2008 in daily grind

Am I a glass half empty kind of girl? Not particularly, but I have to say that summer is almost over. It’s late July and well, August here is the end of the hurrah as far as hot goes. Swimming weather. Speaking of swimming I love to do it. I’m a water person. That’s why [...]

Self Improvement

July 26, 2008 in daily grind

A few things going on with my family have been wearing on my nerves lately. Sometimes when people bring up certain situations from my past it makes me feel really, really insecure. I’ve been feeling that way lately. It’s had me picking at my every flaw, stupid little flaws that nobody notices besides me. I [...]

Most of you know that we are planning on moving. It’s our big, huge, ultimate goal. We are searching for the perfect place and I swear I found my dream house. I’m pretty set in what I want out of a house to start with. The little extras I will be adding later, like a [...]

Couch Potato

July 20, 2008 in daily grind

One of my new loves? Soccer. I love watching it on my new huge tv. I also love that it is usually in high definition which makes it look awesome. I need to remember to pick up the proper HDMI cables so the picture looks even better. I think I might be addicted to tv [...]

Slacking Much

July 20, 2008 in daily grind

Wow I’ve been slacking so much at everything lately. I did manage to get some back to school shopping done this weekend. Friday I hit Kohl’s. I already had some outfits from The Children’s Place bought. Now I have some super cute stuff from Kohl’s as well. Except they don’t have many pants to fit [...]

Living In The 80’s

July 17, 2008 in la familia, movies

My husband and I have this new tradition. It started really simply, by channel surfing late at night. We have a habit of staying up later on nights when Sydney sleeps over somewhere else. We found that a few channels have movies from the 80’s on the weekends, pretty late. We’ve been up until 3:00am [...]

Family Matters

July 17, 2008 in daily grind

The fam is really starting to get on my nerves. My grandma wanted her garage cleaned up so she could have a garage sale. No problem, I need to have my annual sale anyway so why not just do it all in one swoop? She is freaking out about everything. She’s driving me nuts. I’m [...]

Travel In Style

July 17, 2008 in daily grind

My best friend was telling me about how her mother would purchase a briefcase or something like it for each of the kids when they graduated from college. It got me wondering how people really travel with their briefcases and if there is a safe way to do it. I hadn’t heard of Zero Halliburton [...]
