I’m the first to admit that I’m not the Martha type. Hell, I’m even not the Not Martha type. So when I say that this is easy to do, trust me….it’s easy. I made these pretty butterfly cupcakes for Little H’s birthday party and they went over really well. For something so simple, they make a great statement.Make a batch [...]

Today’s featured mom has been sewing since she was 8 years old. In July of last year she had her first daughter and her desire to design and create exploded. Now she makes the most incredible haute couture dresses I’ve ever seen! She also has a practical side and is big into babywearing – so much so that she’s producing [...]

Image by Quiplash! via FlickrIt’s ironic that I’m posting this on the heels of a post about goal setting but it’s all I can do. These past two weeks have been mental. I’ve gone back to work, gotten the flu, rearranged schedules due to a flu at our sitter’s place and am just generally feeling worn out. My brain has [...]

I found Kidzarama a while ago and loved it so much I added the blog to my Google Reader instantly. She’s just done a cute re-design and posts about a variety of mom related things. Now she has a link up to a unique craft tutorial for the fall (and you know it will be here in no time!)Word Grrls [...]

I don’t know if I’ve told you or not but my boss has approved (on a trial basis) that I work from home one day a week. Wednesdays. They set me up with a very nice laptop and all the needed software etc. Today is my first go at being a WAHM. Seriously, it’s tough. Little H is not happy [...]

I’m back at work now, the transition has gone pretty well to this point. On Thursday Little H will go to a sitter (whom she adores) so who knows what will happen then. I’m hoping she has so much fun playing with her friends that she won’t notice I’ve been gone all day. Here’s to hoping. As it turns out, [...]

1) Next time you pull out a family favorite recipe for dinner, double the batch and put some in the freezer. Lasagna works really well for this. Then on the day you use the pre-made freezer surprise, create to your hearts content during the time you would normally make dinner. 2) Get your family in order. Use a white board [...]

It’s Monday – officially one week until I go back to work. I’m not dealing very well but what’cha gonna do right? The Grandmas are here to visit for little H’s birthday on the 12th so there is a lot going on in the house. And little H is sick. It’s gotten to the point where she’s not eating which [...]
