Trying out Supperworks

May 12, 2010 by amreen

Sometimes I'm really organised and we have lovely dinners, complete with salads and even dessert.  Then there are those weeks, when someone's sick, or there are too many hockey/soccer games and it's a dinner disaster.  Once in a while, cereal for dinner (or grilled cheese, toast with eggs, … [Read more...]

A Birthday Not So Bad

Not quite ready to face reality.

March 26, 2010 by amreen

Ah yes, I've waxed on and off about the sensitive nature of my son.  And it was apparent again today. First day back to school after March break.

The Challenge of Personal Grooming!

March 22, 2010 by amreen

My birthday is coming up and I'm not excited.  For the first time in my life, I'm feeling older and a little worn out.  I never appreciated the gifts of youth until  now.  Glossy hair, dewy skin, and most important - time. Time for myself, and for personal grooming.  I've … [Read more...]

The Boy Turns 7

March 21, 2010 by amreen

I just got home from my Boy's 7th birthday celebration.  We saw Diary of a Wimpy Kid, based on the popular book series by Jeff Kinney, and had dinner at Boston Pizza.  The whole evening, I kept watching him. My son.  There's absolutely no more baby-ness left in him. He's all boy, and … [Read more...]
