    This morning I was searching online for fonts when I got aquatinted with this one: In the browser it looks like this: And I’m not sure whether this person is a sick, sick bastard or just has a wicked sense of humor, so I send some iChats to Toby Joe and I’m all, “OMG THIS GUY…

    A few things about this video: Yes, he’s playing with Q-tips. I don’t have an excuse to give you for that.  “Mumu” is Pookum, which is funny because if she could, she would definitely wear a mumu. The song he’s singing is “The Goodbye Song” they sing at school. He loves it.  (Do people like…

    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!

    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…
