The other day I was having a conversation with someone and he paused and said, “So, how many years were you class president?” I was shocked! Seriously, 13 years later, do I still ooze presidential? It’s possible.

I had a chance to go home recently for another birthday marathon and see my little sister in one [...]

I never thought I’d be able to tie in a  Smoky and the Bandit analogy into a presentation for the Junior League, but I did it. I also mentioned my obsession with Hugh and Ice Road Truckers (that story was way off topic).
Earlier this year I was asked if I could present something at a [...]

Sock Knitting: Part 1

Let’s be very clear. I’m a baker not a knitter. So the fact that I’ve decided to start knitting came out of left field. I’ve managed to learn some basic stitches, but not so much that I recognize what I’m doing. Which leaves me doing the wide eyed head nod a lot of times when [...]

Tread Lightly on Earth Day 2

Which has less impact powder or liquid laundry detergent? I haven’t given it much thought until this week. I’ve found a few different forums discussing the pros and cons of each.

I decided to go with the powdered on this trip because of the information point I found on the ClintonFoundation.org web site. 
I also found a [...]

Tread lightly on Earth Day 1

That’s the challenge AfricanKelli.com gave to her readers last week. I’ve been doing small things, but like a lot of us I could do better. I took those words to heart and this week, I’m going to see if I can break some habits. Check out the Flickr group to see what other ideas people [...]

Y’all where are we going to eat

16. Do you remember that? I have a 16 year old sister. So, I’m getting regular installments of 16 year old logic.

 
Today’s conversation started off like this-
Liz- Where are we going to eat tonight.
Mom- I don’t know, what are you hungry for?

Yelp.com Review of the Day

I walked in the door from a fun weekend to my electric bill (not fun) and to find out that I got ROTD from Yelp.com! *blush*
Do you yelp? The mission of the site is:
Yelp is the fun and easy way to find, review and talk about what’s great (and not so great) in your world. [...]

When someone said to me that in the summer in Phoenix it can go days without going below 100, I finally got it. It’s not the dry heat that can get you here, it’s the fact that there is no relief from the heat. There are times that you can go out at midnight and [...]
