  • The Penn State Thing: Take Two.

    (This is an slightly updated version of what I put up yesterday. The first four comments were left on the initial post. And while I didn’t change much, please take that into consideration. This version sits a little better with me. Also: I wrote this rather hastily still. This is precisely why I don’t blog…

  • Elliot’s First Yankee Game (Em’s too!)

    You know how at big events they have people walking around, taking your picture and handing you a card telling you to go online and buy said picture later? Yes? No? Well, that happened a lot at the baseball game. Sadly, I can’t find a record of the shots they took of all of us.…

  • And the winners are…

    Hey guys! As promised, here are the winners for last week’s lollipop giveaway. I had Toby Joe run a script to randomly pull three names from the comments section. So, without further ado, the winners are…. Amber H anca Milissa Thank you again, all of you, for helping me. I am so grateful. I’ve been…

  • Murray and I Thank You!

    I would like to thank you for rallying together on here, Facebook and on Twitter in order to help me get 250 votes for Mission Small Business. I surpassed that amount earlier this morning. I can’t even begin to tell you how grateful I am. If it weren’t for you guys, I never would have…

  • Free Lollipops! A Giveaway.

    I need your help, friends. I’m applying for a small business grant for my lollipop business. I need 250 votes to be considered. Can you help me reach that goal? If you’re on Facebook, it’s really quite simple, click this link, click “Support”, search “Lollipops by mihow” (or just mihow) and then “Vote”. I have…

  • Cupcakes Inspired By Lollipops

    I’m currently working with Etsy on something. I can’t really talk about it just yet. For starters, I’m not sure I’m allowed to. I’m also not really sure what’s going on just yet. What I do know is that my lollipops are involved. And I am as well. On top of that, they commissioned me…

  • Yes, Somebody Really Is Selling a Diamond-Encrusted Pacifier.

    One of the things I miss most about working in an office are those reply-all email threads that morph into something entirely different. Is there a term for this sort of thing yet? There should be. Basically, someone sends out a relatively mundane email. Someone responds with something witty or whatever. And things kind of…

  • The Brooklyn Half (and a request).

    I ran the Brooklyn half last weekend. I really had no business running it. I was injured from running two races the weekend before. But I’m stubborn. Most runners are. So, I ran it. And I loved it. I’m proud of myself for finishing at all. Due to injury, I was betting against myself. And…

  • I Have No Shame.

    You know how some bloggers only post attractive pictures of themselves? NOT THIS BLOGGER! Check this out: OK! So I had to buy this for a few reasons: One: The socks. Two: Age 2. Three: The bags under my eyes are growing increasingly more envious of my double-chin. I just needed proof. I have it…

  • Notorious S.M.A.L.L.

    If you stop paying attention, even for just a minute, you miss stuff like this. This wasn’t staged. He put the hat on. He ransacked my wallet. What a weirdo. Babies are weird.
