Kindergarten in 3..2..1

So, it's officially the Friday before school starts in our school district and today brings about various exciting activities for the family of a new kindergarten student. I....

I Maybe Have a Superpower in My Hand

...the problem is I can't figure out how it works. It appears to be heat activated (not burned, but like using it to hold the handle of the pan you're currently scrambling eggs in.) and it actually hurts a lot. It probably only hurts because I can't figure out how to use it. Yeah, that's it.

Menu Planning for the Weak

No, that wasn't a typo, I really did mean weak. I'm weak when it comes to planning menus, shopping for meals, etc. I love to buy groceries, I love to cook, but I'm very bad at planning it in advance...

So sorry to disrupt your reading (and this is a pretty great read too, lots of recipes and such) but we've moved the blog. Please continue reading here --> Menu Planning for the Weak.

Book Review: Terry Treetop and The Lost Egg

I'm reviewing a kid's book today! I've also got a few actual book reviews planned (yay!) for the near future. Book reviews are one of my favorite things to write, mostly because I adore reading. I've fallen behind on reading in recent years and I've determined I need to blame it on the internet (and my inability to avoid the internet) because I always feel like I don't have time to read but in reality I would if I avoided the internet. I really should budget my web time better. But I digress from the topic of today...

Terry Treetop and The Lost Egg is a children's book written by Tali Carmi....

Sewing Machine Woes

To tell this little story, I have to tell another story that I've been avoiding for awhile. I actually wrote about it once, but it's sitting in my graveyard of unpublished drafts. Anyway, let's just get this going. I hate my sewing machine but it's not my sewing machine's fault, not really....

Product Review: Barefaced Mud Mask

I have a new review for you all this week and I think I like this one way more than all the others. Don't tell anyone though. I'm pretty sure that's because it appealed to my messy little kid side because I got to slather my face in mud and freak out the other members of my household. I'm sure when I shared this picture of me on the Facebook page two weeks ago you were a little weirded out (or not, just pretend, okay?) at my witch nose...

How to Enroll Your Kid in Dance Without Losing Your Mind

Over the last week I've been doing a bit of research for getting the kids into their extra curricular activities this fall. Abel has been wanting to play soccer since Spring of 2013 (or longer, but that's when he started insisting) and Scarlet hasn't really verbalized about an activity, yet she dances around the house, adores her tutu...

Home Progress: The "Work Room"

This week we have made additional progress in our home that I'm beyond excited about! We moved in mid-May and for the most part had every room furnished except the living room, family room, dining room, breakfast nook, and my workroom. The family room has a television and all the electronic fun, but it only contains a small rocking chair...

Rental Property Management Tips from a Novice

Let me start out by stating a few facts: I don't own any rental properties, in fact, I have personally lived in seven rented properties in the last five years. I do know some people who own rental properties, most specifically my cousins (who took over the family business when my dear uncle passed.) I also do know about many of the challenges of being a renter, not to mention due to my studious nature, a few things about being a renting land owner.
