Lunch with Mini You(crew) and how to make it fun!

I missed yesterday’s post, due to entertaining my crew since they got called off yesterday, and they are home again today. I’m ok with it, because it’s frigid outside! Which leads into the post for today. Lunch. Its always interesting to have to have lunch, especially if you’re not ready for it. In most cases,…

Snacks: why do we waste so much money on them?

Snacks. You love them, I love them, kids love them. I don’t know who doesn’t love snacks. Tell me why we are still buying pre-made snacks? With the knowledge of what is actually going into food, and what isn’t, adding on to trying to save money right? Now, you can continue that, or you have…

SpongeBob, Crab, and Shrimp…….oh my!

I apologize peeps. I got damn near no sleep due to Ms. Hyperdiva staying up until 2am, and it threw my schedule off. In any event, we are going to continue with kid friendly week! Now, I always like to try out new things, but sometimes, new food sounds yucky to picky eaters. Forget your…

Going back to school isn’t the same here.

You guys are getting the raw side of me this week I guess. Wise One, I mention her quite a bit because she’s like my mini me. She’s going through a rough time with going back to school. It’s not the normal trials and tribulations, but deeper issues that I never knew until today. As…

Breakfast after break…….am I awake yet?

Hey peeps! I know, I’m supposed to be doing homework right now, but a little mishap in my records has me blocked from everything, so waiting to hear back from my advisor to straighten everything out. In the meantime, I created a theme for the week, I like to call ‘Kid friendly week’. It’s not…

My life as a mom with special needs kids.

It’s easy to explain ADD, social anxiety, and depression to people. They understand, and sometimes even identify with the causes, treatments and such.

Bar 101: At Home New Year’s Chill Mode

Now, I posted a New Years story based around my Bar 101 choices. What we didn’t cover was what if you stay in? What about those of us, who decide to have a couple, or a lot of friends over, and just hang out at home. This entry. This entry, my friends, is for you….

Day 25 Holly Days: Mario Kart 8

We have ran our course on Holly Days. We baked, cooked, drank, played games, and watched some movies. Loved the fun we had, and I’m ending the series on a great note. My gaming review on…….Mario Kart 8! My kids have waited for this game since they announced a new sequel. The backstory is Nintendo…

Bar 101: My New Year’s Eve Date

I walked into the lounge, hoping this New Years would be different. First doomed idea was agreeing to a blind date. Of all the days to try out a blind date, I must have been desperate to get out the house. If this strapless bra doesn’t start cooperating, it’s coming off. Aww hell, I can’t,…
