    I made a Yo Gabba Gabba cake for little girl’s 3rd birthday. The family was really happy with the outcome. I had an absolute blast making it, although it was stressful at times. And there was one unfortunate incident involving Brobee (the green one). So below you’re seeing Brobee 2.0. But overall, it went really…

    I used to save ticket stubs. I started back in the early 1990s. I kept them in a ziplock baggie. I did this for over 15 years. I’m not sure why I stopped, but I did. Maybe it was when I started having kids and didn’t make it out as much. Either way, the ticket…

    Hello, guys! It’s been a while. And I’m not sure anyone even visits here anymore. ::crickets:: But I made a promise to the only brand I’ll shill for, and so here goes. We are huge fans of Honest Kids Juices. So much so, we made them permanently available to our kids on our breakfast bar.…

    This morning I called into The Brian Lehrer Show to discuss my Etsy shop. The segment was called Checking In On the Maker Economy. Etsy was brought up and how they’re going public. So I figured what the hell? I make things and sell them on Etsy. I have a unique product. I am a…

    Elliot turned four a couple of weeks ago. We decided to have a party for him and invited his entire class. Prior to this year, we’d only ever invited the immediate family. Anyway, last year, he wanted an Emmet cake. And so my massively pregnant ass made him an Emmet cake. This year, he wanted…

    There are days I wake up and I wonder how it is I got here. How do I live in the suburbs? How is it I have three kids? Where has the time gone? I turned forty last year but because I was pregnant and fairly miserable with sickness, I didn’t realize it. I didn’t have…

    “In today’s economy, when having both parents in the workforce is an economic necessity for many families, we need affordable, high-quality childcare more than ever. It’s not a nice-to-have — it’s a must-have. It’s time we stop treating childcare as a side issue, or a women’s issue, and treat it like the national economic priority…

    We’ve lived in the suburbs for a little over a year. And it’s ok. I’d be lying if I said I loved it. The truth is, I miss living in the city. I miss it for so many reasons, and someday I hope to tackle them all, but today I’ll stick to one: friends and…

    Try and imagine how much in the way of bribery it took to get Elliot into frame at all. OK, now double that.

    For the first time in my life I’m making a couple of New Year’s resolutions. I need to make some changes around here for the health of my brain. 1). I will no longer read news stories filled with tragedy and heartache. I’m done. I will not be clicking this type of link from my…
