on grief: Joan & Shirley
I am looking forward to reading Melissa Rivers’ book about her Mom, Joan Rivers. I pre-ordered it. I miss Joan, I really do. Her death was weirdly shocking for me. Obviously, it was a surprise (like someone else’s.), but more importantly…
Oh, Etsy… you never disappoint.
So, in looking for “fairy garden” stuff on etsy, I stumbled across this: Found here. It’s “magical unicorn poop.” (The Seller’s label, not mine.) [No one can actually say if the #2 of unicorns is actually rainbow or not. I would…
The injustice of creativity.
During the week I think of at least 16 different blog post ideas. I add them to my “Posts to Write” list on my phone. I start drafts of said posts. I literally crave writing during the week, but often times…

Oh, Martha. The life only *one* person was meant to live.
One of the highlights of my life is catching up on The Martha Stewart Blog. Oh, Martha. It’s educational. It’s entertaining. And there’s no arguing that it’s beautifully done. Her propensity towards the more formal vernacular delights my soul. Her…
Honest parenting.
Around 3 p.m. today I sent a text to the husband and proceeded to list all of the things that were wrong with my day, our life and our children. [insert smile] Lucky guy. He’s been away from Cabo since…
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery
This is extremely fantastic. I may or may not have laughed out loud at this product offering. Foodiggity does it again. It’s a paper cup sweatshirt. STOP IT. See the original post here and buy the sweatshirt here. (Check out…
