I’m not a cat person. I like cats, just other people’s cats I’m pretty sure I’d like your cat. But, for me, it’s dogs all the way. And ponies. And sometimes blue birds, of the happiness variety. So how did we end up with a cat when Boy was younger? The Universe conspired against me, …

Let’s talk fire safety, shall we? WE SHALL! Years ago, when we bought our first house, my FIL gifted us with a fire extinguisher for the kitchen. I had never owned a fire extinguisher before and I found that it put me at ease knowing I had a way to fight a a fire if …
Wine. OMT likey. I offer Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C (this last one is really taking liberties when I say “wine”). I prefer whites, but will drink a sweet red. Dry reds not so much. They make my face squinch in unflattering spasms. When I enjoy my whites, I like them chilled properly. …

As I write, my phone may or may not be turning itself off all by itself. This weekend it refused to alert me to anything incoming, even though it was clearly in the mode for alerting me for everything. It’s a smartphone, yet over two years old, at the end of its natural life, which …
Calling all grannies, grampies, mommas and daddies! My friend Amy over at Pregnant Chicken (well, she doesn’t really know we’re friends, but I’m hoping if she met me she’d wanna join the party) did an amazing review of a clek fllo carseat (yes, that’s all spelled correctly) and I wanted to share what I learned. …
You guys know I love me a restaurant supply store for my kitchen supplies, right? I also love finding offbeat uses for stuff I find there. FUN! I also am a frequent shopper at Costco and Sam’s.
