My daughter’s math book was looking a little worse for wear. It wasn’t in the best of shape when she got it and it’s not getting better. She wanted to cover it up, but she didn’t want it to be boring. We used a hot pink Victoria’s Secret shopping bag and she was so pleased…
My friend Jenny Flake of Picky Palate wrote a cookbook. You should buy it. If you hear my stomach rumbling on any given day, it’s probably because I have been perusing my facbebook and instagram streams and have stumbled across another incredible “OMG why didn’t I think of that” recipe from Jenny. Like her Barbecue…
A little over a year ago I fell in love with Lion Brand’s Amazing Yarn. I love the colors, the striping. Ombre yarns are my favorite. Knitting never gets boring as the patterns unfold like a story. As I knitter, I have chronic A.D.D. I can power through and finish a project when it is…
Here is my third lunchbox selection, using some of the treats that I received from Udi’s Gluten Free. It used to be hard to enjoy a parfait. Finding good Gluten Free Granola was a chore.

Udi’s Gluten Free recently sent me a box of their products and challenged me to come up with five school lunches using their products as inspiration. While my children are fine with Gluten, I am not. I took on the challenge because I struggle so with eating out, and feeling like I can’t have “regular”…
There’s something about watching a movie outdoors, under the stars. I have so many fond memories of going to the drive-in as a kid and watching movies on the side of a barn at camp. Sitting out in the fresh air, crickets chirping, nobody caring if you spilled some popcorn or your drink… Movies are…
Before long we’ll be back to school and our many school year activities. For my family this means a lot of time spent in the car. I am a road warrior, driving four kids to and from four schools daily. We’ll have preschool, elementary, middle and high schools on our route this year. It’s a…
Do the words “Back to School” strike as much terror and dread in your heart as they do in mine? I’ll confess, I am still trying to face the bags and backpacks full of papers that are lying in wait for me in the hall closet. They need to be sorted before we can begin…
