That’s right, it’s the month of love. We kicked it off with a little celebration that included a fancy dessert auction, and while I made bids on what would be most delicious to me personally, my ever-thoughtful husband looked at everything and thought, what would most delight my 7- and 5-year-old daughters? The result: Sure … [Read more…]
I’m a little bit concerned that, between all of my whining and all of the talk about skiing, some of you might be nodding off in boredom. Or perhaps the bloggy-voice is starting to sound like Charlie Brown’s teacher, wah-whonk-wah-whonka-wahh. . .  So  I’m introducing the latest project that I’ve been working on. It’s a calendar of regularly-scheduled events. … [Read more…]
The purveyors of spam found me while we were skiing, so I am temporarily moderating comments to ensure that you are not trying to convince my readers that they need bigger, more long-lasting erections. Argh.

Perhaps you all think that I’ve been Slacky-McSlackster because it has been the longest stretch ever that I’ve gone without a post. Au contraire! I am systematically going through all of those links I put together to try to get on everyone’s email lists and RSS feeds to serve you better! And it all takes … [Read more…]
So far I’ve gathered up more than 70 links to share with you! My list includes places that appear to be really unbelievably fun, and I can’t believe I’d never heard of them. It also includes obvious ones, sure, but conveniently located in one place for you to bookmark and use forever and ever–oh, happy … [Read more…]
Phew. I know that the whole line about how you, too, can start your own blog in minutes is theoretically true, but when you have this vision in your head of what it should look like, it actually takes longer. Really, just starting to write this, I feel like I should be hunched over with … [Read more…]
