Seriously. I’m not even kidding. That’s what the produce section of a […]
It’s tax time. That’s right. It’s where you add up what you made, subtract your deductions, inter your info in Turbo Tax, say a prayer that you won’t get audited and hope for a big return.
If you’re like me, you’re in fact counting on a big return to pay off debt and/or replace your car […]

I was bending over frantically sorting Zack’s toys and throwing them in boxes when Ainsley, my 6 year old daughter, shouted, Mom your butt crack is totally showing!

She sang as she ran around me laughing and pulling down her […]
Surely I am not the only women who is disappointed that bubble bath products usually do not make a bath very bubbly?
So, I was thinking. . .

Remember that commercial from back in the day about the Palmolive being “good for your hands?” Making them softer and all that? They even make […]

Maybe those who criticize the marriage of Jon & Kate plus 8 haven’t figured this out:
