All week I had been waiting for Sunday night and the LOST series finale. It’s been bittersweet watching this last season knowing that the end is coming. I will not go into a lot of detail about the finale or the last season so as not to spoil it for anyone - including my husband [...]
One of our favorite wedding gifts we received 15 years ago was a picnic basket. We used it on almost every trip. The top finally started to unravel and even though I still use the bottom of the basket, I’ve been looking for a replacement. I found a lovely basket at a second hand store [...]
Does your dryer ‘eat’ socks? Well, apparently the dryer isn’t the culprit - it could be your washer. While washing, some times socks get pushed to the bottom of the tub and get wrapped around the agitator of the washing machine. You might want to check there - although it might not be that easy [...]
Ever since we moved two years ago, we have been eating off plastic and paper plates. Our last set of dishes were only $10 and we thought we’ll just pick up some new ones. Well, we could never find anything we liked that was cheap as $10/set.
I love bargains and stopped by the local [...]
Last week I was sick. It’s no fun to be sick in the summer. It just seems wrong. But like most bugs that make their way around, both my husband and daughter now have it. Thankfully I’m feeling better so that I can take care of them.
This week I have a lot of catching up [...]
Happy Mother’s Day! Look what I woke up to. Roses! They are so beautiful. Thanks to the kid for waking us up super early so that my husband could then sneak off to the store without me. Somehow I doubt that was their plan.
Sunday is Mother’s Day. I have to admit that I’m still a Momma’s girl. I love my Mom dearly and every time someone says that I look just like her, I take it as a huge compliment.
My Mom and I not only look alike, but we also have a lot of the same mannerisms. My [...]
Last month we, well mostly my husband, made our little girl a sandbox. Well technically it’s more like a pit. After debating different ideas we finally decided on one and to dig down a few inches to keep the sand from blowing away. Here is the the ‘beach’ before -
We had placed some sand in [...]
I wished I had made it by more blogs during the Ultimate Blog Party last week hosted by 5 minutes for Mom but was just too pooped to party too much and stayed too long at some blog parties to really hop around.
The good thing about the party is that the blog post with all [...]
There’s a party going on. I can’t believe the Ultimate Blog Party at 5minutesformom.com almost passed me by. I may be late to the party that started earlier this week but at least I made it.
A little about myself. I’m a housewife who would rather play the Nintendo Wii than do housework. If my mom [...]
