  • Happy Good Friday

    With Easter just 2 days away, and since today is Good Friday, a co-worker shared this recipe with me and I wanted to share it with you too. I loved at Church the other day it says something about “Taking Easter back from the Bunny.”  I thought that was cute.  Don’t get me wrong, it’s…

  • The Letter V

    Happy Valentine’s Day!!  Or in college I called it SAD day also (Single’s awareness day).  Hope you enjoy the day however you decide to celebrate it! First off, I’d just like to say, I’d be lying if I said I was happy we hadn’t had snow yet.  Now I’m not a big fan of snow,…

  • 2012 is a Clean Slate

    Careful how you write it! 🙂 I ran across a bunch of these handy tips and thought, what better way than to start the New Year off with some helpful hints, right? Not sure if they all work or not, I haven’t had a chance to try them, but hey, we’re well on our way…

  • Merry Christmas to all and to all a Good Night

    I just grabbed a handful of the 687 photos I took for Christmas.  Now you’ll have to understand, these photos range from putting up the tree, decorating the house, putting together Christmas presents, wrapping, cooking, opening, etc… so yes those photos add up very quickly :). Because my parent’s rock, we got a new Christmas…

  • I Want a Hippopotamus

    [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oOzszFIBcE?fs=1] So even though last week I sort of felt like a Scrooge, I still couldn’t get my fill of Christmas songs.  Hey, it happens! :). One song that just cracks me up is “I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”. And of course it is such a catchy song that it kept getting stuck…

  • I believe!

    I remember my first Christmas adventure with Grandma.  I was just a kid.  I remember tearing across town on my bike to visit her on the day my big sister dropped the bomb:  “There is no Santa Claus,” she jeered.  “Even dummies know that!” My Grandma was not the gushy kind, never had been.  I…

  • Scrooge

    I’m not going to lie… I feel like this guy right here right now… **via** I don’t know why either.  Christmas is my mostest favoriteist (yes, that’s a word/phrase, didn’t you know that) time of the year… really between Thanksgiving & New Years.  But this year, something is eating at me.  I don’t know what…

  • Christmas Wish List

    Ever since Sunday Night dinner this last weekend and Earl talking about misspelling Christmas to Chritmas (she got distracted), that’s how I seem to want to say it. Don’t worry, I know the reason for the season and I’m all about Christmas and not Xmas however I did have someone show me how the X…
