My kids and I went to this far-off place called Yorba Linda on Monday to visit Marcy from The Glamorous Life. It was the first time our kids had met each other and they all got along swimmingly (which they did for about 1/2 hour as well–swim). Just in case you were wondering what two […]
We all went Wii (iiii) !
On Thursday me and some of the mom bloggers from ocregister.com went down to the OC Register building to test out the new Wii Fit. Read the story in The Orange County Register: Moms take the Wii Fit challenge. Make sure to check out the pictures… While there, I took this video with my nifty […]
Taking aim at my Target spending
I was driving with my son on the 5 freeway past the Irvine Spectum and I noticed the brightly lit-up, twirling ferris wheel. “Look Ben!” I said, motioning in the direction of what would be most kids’ point of interest. He looked out his window and said, “Yeah! Target!” Uh-oh! Target has a store in […]
The sad, lonely life of a mom’s coffee cup
I feel sorry for my coffee cup. I do. Here…I’ll show you why. Below is a breakdown on its daily activities. 6:30 a.m. Pulled from un-run dishwasher and hastily rinsed. 6:32 Abandoned in sink while I made Dinasaur Egg Oatmeal (which I swore I wasn’t going to buy again–but, hey, it’s oatmeal.) 6:40 Poured coffee […]
Hello Mother, Hello Fodder
***This message has been approved by my mom, she’s great that way*** I know that you have read a million touching, meaningful and maybe even profound things about motherhood leading up to tomorrow–Mother’s Day. All excellent! My mom deserves a beautifully written sonnet dedicated to her…no, a play…no, an opera. She’s a magnificent mom and […]
The urgre to purge
I spent the morning yesterday cleaning out my kids’ closets. I know this sounds like the most mind-numbingly boring thing to do, and yes, the actual “doing” part is, but after it was completed, it was exhilarating. It almost made me WANT to do laundry. Almost…I realized I was dreading opening their overflowing closets I […]
These are the days I’ll remember
This is hands-down my favorite thing to do at the moment–walk behind my kids as they head to the park. The weather has been beautiful, and early evening is when all the wild parrots come out and quarrel with each other in the tall trees. They really get worked up. Ben has just mastered his […]

My Juicy Couture Rant
I have this thing against all things “Juicy Couture.” Pretty futile given I live in Orange County, but I can be stubborn when I want to be. Here’s my beef…$125 for a little girl’s purse at Nordstrom? I was thrilled to my toes when I saw they had about eight of them marked down to […]
Oh, the laundry gods must be mad at me
I think I may have irrevocably angered the Laundry Gods throughout my life, to the point now, they are determinedly seeking their revenge. I thought if I confess my former laundry sins, maybe they can be forgiven and I can FINALLY get caught up: 1.) As a young girl I would throw perfectly clean, folded […]
