Will write for yarn.
A rerun from last year. Because it’s my favorite.
Ladies, this is the most glorious time of year, the time when you are blessed with a multitude of lovely new sets of pajamas and slippers and wonderfully useful household tools (like, say, a pizza cutter that looks like a shark and a brand new mop head), [...]
Like many modern moms, I work hard to find ways to run my household in an environmentally responsible way. There are amazing new products out there meant to help us be good stewards of our resources and to leave minimal impact on our landfills and in our air and water systems. As an added bonus, [...]
I love cloth diapers.
I know. What a ridiculous thing to love, right? But if you ask any mama who does it nowadays, she’ll probably tell you the same thing.
Not only are they easy to use (no, really – they are), but they are ridiculously cute! Crazy cute. And who can resist an already adorable tushie [...]
I was very proud of myself for finding all the necessary pieces of my cappuccino machine this morning. As you know, if you read this post, this is no small feat.
Of course, it’s not working properly.
And now I’ve spent so much effort putting it together, I no longer have the wherewithall to make coffee.
So due [...]
I have made no secret of my lack of housekeeping skills. In fact, in a moment of folly I even posted photos. Photos, people!
The Parent Bloggers Network is having another blog blast this weekend, compliments of Pledge Multi-Surface Cleaner, and I’m flouncing my shame around in public in honor of the event.
I sit right now [...]
Children’s play is their work, and there is no reason it can’t be yours, also. I have found some simple ways to include the kiddos in my chores, and this is my absolute favorite.
This is part two of my Carnival of Play post, inspired by Annie at PhD in Parenting. Unfortunately, my floor-cleaning hasn’t happened [...]
Interestingly, my biggest motivator and friend, Melissa, is also celebrating her 100th post TODAY! I guess we both started taking our writing more seriously about the same time, only she was much more disciplined than I was for a while. Then she started nursing school, and with four kids and a husband to take care [...]
I recycle! Yes, I do. In fact, you might say I have a bit of a problem.
I’ve have been asked, and answered with complete seriousness, the question, “Are you keeping this dryer lint for a project?”
I won’t tell you how I answered.
It all started with using wool as a cloth diaper cover. It worked so [...]
Yesterday I got to laugh a bit while taking a break from writing about depression when I came across Her Bad Mother’s post about house cleaning.
I’ve been pretty clear about my skills in that area, but I haven’t been what you might call…transparent. She posted pictures!
So in a show of solidarity (and maybe just a [...]
Here is the run down of my day:
1. Bread. In the bath tub. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen. Witness:
2. See cell phone. See glass of milk. See mom scream. See that it’s too late. I am sure gonna miss my milky, qwerty keyboard phone. This I have no photos of. It’s just too painful.
3. Forward [...]
