Shaun came home just in time to watch me finish putting away my pile of groceries.  He got a very mournful look on his face and and said, "I guess you already went to Costco."  I just laughed at him and asked him what he had wanted and he replied with a shrug that all [...]

Last week, KT excitedly started talking about shopping on Black Friday.  I merely groaned and hoped that she would forget about it.  My hopes were dashed to the ground when I realized that she had talked both her grandmother and her sister into going out before the crack of dawn to fight the crowds for [...]

One of my ancestors was a pilgrim.  He had the dubious honor of [...]

I’ve only been blogging regularly for oh…about… 22 days now. (Yay for NaBloPoMo!??)but I’ve already been given a blogging award! How exciting is that? Everyone likes to be recognized and Carol has done just that. She has granted me the “Honest Scrap” award.  (I’m so glad that S is on there!)  I’m beyond thrilled, thank [...]

Me: Mom, what would you like for your birthday dinner?
Mom: Um…how about lasagna!  Kt can eat that, right?
Me: Well…not really, vegans don’t eat cheese.  I can figure out a version for her though.
