A while back, I had my new friend, Julia Sherwin, come over and made her hang out with me. This wouldn’t be so weird, except that I shoved a camera in front of her face and made her vlog with me. The thing that killed me, and know that I was sold on Julia for good […]
Lufthansa and Library Books
And then it happened. I got a plane ticket to Germany. It just wasn’t actually mine, and it had already been used, but this is so not the point. The point is, for a slice of time, I had a connection with something outside of my limited realm. I found it in a library book. […]
Frozen is Finally YOURS!
My daughter is turning 3 this week, so she’s not fully at the age of fan-worshiping. And I’ve largely worked to downplay the Frozen obsession because I’ve heard the urban legend rumors (totally true) of how IMPOSSIBLE it is to snag anything even semi-Frozen-related. But truth told: she swoons over Anna and Elsa. So just imagine the […]
MomAssembly Brings the Instruction Manual
If I had to guess my most oft-said phrase in my parenting journey, “I’m losing my mind” would probably go for the win. From the moment my son let loose his first wail, I was filled with an overwhelming sense of being completely clueless. I had read all the books. I had friends. I even managed […]
Here’s to Being Hunger-Free
July 4th is one of my favorite holidays. It’s full of grilling, kids running around the year, adorable star-printed duds, the sky lit up with magnificent colors, and a recognition of the most boss moment in our nation’s history. This weekend is a fun weekend, a time of celebration. When The Motherhood asked me to team up with […]
Superhero-ing with Coach Daddy
Eli of Coach Daddy asked me to write about how I’m a Superhero Mom. This is one of the times where it’s really great that our communication is online because right now he would be getting one of my special you-have-three-heads looks. I’m really good at those looks. At least I think I am. My […]
The Beautiful, Beautiful Sam’s Club
It was the stuff of fantasies–a Saturday, kids at the zoo with my in-laws and my husband and I were left peacefully alone to tackle our massive to-do list. Despite the stymieing length of the list, there was hope in the air. We had a boatload of errands to run, sure, but we could attack them without having […]
Femme Frugality Turns 3!
One of my very first friends in this blogging world was Femme Frugality, and I am thrilled to celebrate the 3 year anniversary of her blog here today! If you haven’t visited her site, DO. Her blog is chock-full of money-saving tips for “students, brides, mommies, daddies, and Pittsburghers”. I have learned a ton from this […]
With a Sidelong Glance to the Bees
Long about 3 months ago, my husband officially delved into his bee obsession. The hives were bought. The sidelong expressions were initiated. In short, I thought he was crazy and he knew it. In I Just Want to Be Alone, I wrote about all the “fun chats” that went into “our” decision to go forth with […]
5 Tips to Becoming a Super Mom
Here at The Mom of the Year, it’s all about being a fab parent–countless epic fails included, of course. I’d be lying if I told you I had it figured out–any of it figured out. My go-to strategy generally involves a lot of fumbling about and hoping for the best, but there have been a […]
