I have many vitamins.Many vitamins that sit, untouched, on my messy bathroom shelves until they expire. I don't know what it is, but I cannot bring myself to become a routine vitamin-swallower (totally a word). My iron level is at an all-time low, and I've got a bottle of iron supplements RIGHT … [Read more...]
Take Me Away!
Right now I am wrapped in my housecoat, rinsing out my four year-old's barf bowl every 20 minutes, and drowning in laundry. But....in three weeks' time I will be sunning my doughy thighs on the beach in Maui.I have really learned a lot these past few years about embracing the moment, being more … [Read more...]

Where There’s (Not) a Will
We don't have a will.There, I said it.Chalk it up to denial about my own mortality, fear of thinking of the horrible possibility of my and my husband's death and leaving our kids orphaned, or plain old laziness and not wanting to act like a grown-up.

But I was so out of the groove … [Read more...]
Bottoms Up!
My two year-old has a drinking problem. All three of my girls have had heated love affairs with their bottles.

Quiet Break

Making the Cut
For the past four years I have been lucky enough to get invited to a fantastic cookie exchange hosted by the sister of a dear friend of mine. She goes all out and prepares a spread of amazing appetizers for us to enjoy, games to play, prizes to win, and an afternoon out that is one of the highlights … [Read more...]
