Yesterday I went to the bank
to get checks to pay for my son's soccer uniform and tournament
fees (he plays club soccer.) The check for the uniform was
$339 and the check for the next 2 tournaments was for $200.
Jonathan the teller said, "Wow! That's a lot of
money for… Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (10) | Blog

Last time out we talked about sleeping
with co-workers, and based on the comments we received, we are

I grew up eating cakes
made from cake mixes, and I still love them. But when I want
to make something special, I take a little more time to make my
cakes from scratch. It's not difficult, it just takes a

I still have little kids, and
my husband and I both like to take the kids out
trick-or-treating. Because of this, I never do anything more

I hate Daylight Saving Time. Okay, I do love summer nights when it doesn’t get dark until late. But I swear, a raving lunatic invented this time change stuff. Who else would think it was convenient to change the time by an hour every six months? I mean, please. Find a time you like and stick to…

My four kids always manage to
bring home enough candy to stock our own candy store after
they're done trick-or-treating. After a day or two of
eating themselves into a candy coma, I round up the bags and
transfer all the treats into gallon size zip top bags. I
place the bags on the… Read More »
