    Armed with a hook!

    I’ve recently taken up crochet, which is much easier for me than knitting. Knitting makes me curse. Crochet makes me curse less. You know how when you get a new interest or hobby, everyone around you has to pay? Well this year, I drew my niece’s name for our gift exchange, so she gets the […]

    Fine Arts Friday: Edible Christmas Art!

    Fine Arts Friday: Edible Christmas Art!

    After postponing two times (once for life kicking our butts, the second because of flu, which is basically the same thing), we finally got together with our friends for a Christmas Baking Extravaganza! Instead of the traditional icing everywhere, frustrating the kids and the mom when Santa doesn’t look right, we opted for the much […]

    Terrible Tuesday: emphathizing with the Grinch

    Terrible Tuesday: emphathizing with the Grinch

    Not in feeling grinchy about Christmas but about its relentless approach, whether I’m ready or not. “He hadn’t stopped Christmas from coming, it came! Somehow or other… it came just the same.” Oh yeah, I feel that. Time’s-a-wasting links! This made me do a nerdy dance of joy: time capsule opened that was buried in […]

    Unbelievable

    By now, most people have heard that the fantastic Rolling Stone article on a horrific gang rape was, well, fantastic. As in made up, apparently whole cloth.

    Joyful chaos

    Joyful chaos

    Satchmo was born eight years ago today, two weeks before Christmas and the same day my husband finally received the long-awaited transfer from Virginia to Texas. It was a chaotic time, to say the least: new baby, selling our house, and moving across the country. Symbolic of this chaos: he was born (via c-section) peeing […]
