Do you do something a certain way, or have a little tip or trick you think is no big deal… then you tell someone and they smack their hands to their heads in an I-Coulda-Had-A-V8 moment…? …And then you realize you were kind of on to something that woks great, but isn’t necessarily common knowledge…? […]
Make your bad photos work to your advantage.
I love photos! One of my favorite items to use when decorating my house is photos. I have never been one to line the hallway with my kids’ school portraits (not a criticism if you do it… to each his or her own…). We haven’t had a whole lot of family portraits taken (the last […]
How my morning walk got me in trouble with my husband.
I have been a Dorito eating, margarita sipping, sedentary sloth all summer. Handsome Hubby and I agreed that starting in August, we would jump back into an exercise routine and start walking each morning. August 1st, at 6:00 a.m., I reluctantly put on my shoes and off we went. We took a route through the neighborhood […]
Gratuitous bragging about the men in my life.
My dad taught me how to use power tools and to stand up for what I believe in. He taught me that things are often black and white and there is very little room for gray areas when it comes to strength of character. He gave me my first beer. He’s a fabulous dad to […]
I don’t need no steeenkin’ Valentine’s Day…
Can I just say right now that I am the luckiest girl on earth? I have been in love with my husband my whole life. You can read my love story here. I don’t need a Hallmark holiday to have my husband show me he loves me. He does it in so many ways, both […]
Romance begins in the kitchen.
Handsome Hubby and I are going to celebrate on Sunday the 13th. There is nothing romantic about a Monday night, with homework that needs to be checked, kids that need to be corralled or work days that need to be finished. We are going to pick a new recipe to try, shop for ingredients together, […]
Prince Charming was late… but he eventually showed up.
Don’t tell him I said this, but I am the luckiest girl in the world to be married to my husband. There is no one else on the planet who “gets me” the way that this wonderful man does. We just fit… and we balance each other so well. He’s an amazing man. Watching him […]
25 years? Surely you’re mistaken, because I’m still 18 in my head.
Handsome Hubby and I attended our 25th High School reunion a few weekends ago. Since we were classmates and have the same friends, we avoid that awkward Spouse As 5th Wheel syndrome. It appears that reunion companies won’t do 25th (or 35th, 45th, etc) reunions without a huge deposit, because they say statistically these are […]
It’s a good thing he’s so fabulous…
Scene: The front porch. Handsome Hubby is getting ready to leave for work. We briefly touch on some of the things we need to do/buy/pack for our upcoming camping trip. Me: “I need to pick up a couple of things at Kohl’s… like a rash guard for Grant, etc.” HH: “You already bought a rash […]
A love letter. To a father.
OK Dear Readers… a first for me. Please give a warm welcome to my first ever, guest blogger… My Handsome Hubby, or as you may know him: HH. This is his message to his father for Father’s Day: Dad, More and more, as I raise my boys, I find myself thinking of the same scenes […]
