    When I approached them to take the shot, they were sound asleep and it was cute. My moving nearer to them woke them up. But this is still pretty cute. I can’t comprehend how anyone is capable of hurting a cat (or any animal for that matter). Look at them!

    There’s nothing like a gooey brownie, right? These taste a lot like the store bought boxed brownies, only they’re homemade! If you’re craving chocolate and you’re one for nostalgia, these are pretty awesome.  What you will need 8 x 8 or 9 x 9 pan mixer Ingredients 2 cups white sugar 1 cup butter 3/4…

    When Emory hit the 15-month mark, he started to notice the world around him and that he was sharing it with other people. He went from a dancing, falling down toddler to realizing that people were paying attention. Instead of embracing them and pulling them in, he stopped dancing. I told everyone around us not…

    I’ve been approached by people over the years asking me to write about products. I’ve also been asked to attend sponsored events here in New York and write about them. I always turn them down. Not because I have anything against the products involved or anyone soliciting such help. I turn them down because I’m…

    He lifted his head several times as Emory read aloud from The No-Cry Sleep Solution and put it right back down again.  Something makes me think that this isn’t what the author had in mind when she wrote her book.

    We attended a party recently where the host was vegan. I decided to continue the cupcake trend I’ve been on and bake her some vegan treats. I used to bake a lot of vegan baked goods when Toby Joe was vegan. But it’s been years. Much to my surprise, they were easier than their dairy…

    We have a lot of kitchen appliances. Out of the appliances we own, the two that we’ve used the most over the years has been the KitchenAid mixer and the Cuisinart Electric Kettle. I use the KitchenAid at least three times a week. And Toby Joe makes tea almost every night. I often use our kettle for…

    The moment I heard about Maddie Spohr’s tragic death, I knew I had to do something. So, whenever Isabel Kallman of AlphaMom wrote on Twitter stating that she’d be walking for the March of Dimes in honor of Maddie, I decided to join her. It was completely out of character for me to do something like that.…

    I kept thinking about this post, wondering how I’d get everyone to believe me when I told them that he put himself in this position—that I had nothing to do with it. I wasn’t sure people would believe me when I told them that this clumsy creature climbed on top of a wooden chest and…

    I took this recipe from Cupcakes Year-Round: 50 Recipes for Every Season and Celebration. The book gets mixed reviews on Amazon, mainly because of the way its designed (spiral bound, easel) but it does the trick, especially if you want something a little more decadent but not super difficult. Today’s recipe features red velvet cupcakes with a cream cheese…
