Tuesday was my 6-year anniversary. Zach and I have been together for six years. Sure, we aren’t married, but that’s quite an accomplishment (if I do say so myself). We have grown together immensely, and we have achieved the best thing two people can ever achieve: creating a beautiful, smart, wonderfully kind, hilarious and sensitive [...]

Today is the day. The day when you take a few minutes of your time to make a difference. Educate yourselves, donate, pass the word. It doesn’t take long, and it can save lives.
Did you know that 95% of women who develop breast cancer have no family history? Certain genes can be passed down from [...]
I Like The Way You Eat and Drink
Posted in Uncategorized on July 12, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I love watching Alex eat. It’s always a mess, which is a definite down side, but it’s so cute. The way he picks food up between his thumb and index finger, the way he shoves the food deep into his mouth, the way he licks his fingers when it’s a food he really likes, and [...]
New Car Seat!
Posted in Uncategorized on June 3, 2008 | 3 Comments »
We got our original convertible car seat about five months ago, as Alex was already quickly outgrowing the height limit of his infant seat. It was hard to give up the infant seat so quickly, as there is nothing like being able to take your sleeping baby out of the car without waking them up! [...]
A Few Things

1. I entered Alex into the Parents Magazine Cover Photo Contest! I put a little blurb in my side bar, so if you have the chance and agree that he is a cutie I would love it if you would take a minute (or less, really!) to check out the photos I uploaded!
2. I overheard [...]

Bush’s Third Term: McCain
Posted in Uncategorized on May 2, 2008 | 1 Comment »
MoveOn just sent me this Bush vs. McCain Quiz, so naturally I took it (I love all things “quiz”). You don’t have to agree with me that McCain is a quack, but taking the quiz certainly reminds you of certain similarities between Bush and McCain. And with Bush’s lowest approval rating yet (at 71% disapproval) [...]
Real Education Starts Young

This kind of follows my previous post about community college writers, but when I got back my third 100% on an exam last night, the second in this course, I was surprised at the people around me:
“Did you pass this time?”
“Naw…you?”
“Yeah, I got 20 [out of 30] this time.”
…
“What did you get on this one?”
“Another [...]
Tomato Soup FTW!
Posted in Uncategorized on March 25, 2008 | No Comments »
I made some tomato soup (from scratch) the other day that is just incredible. I very loosely followed this tomato soup recipe, but mostly I just followed the length of time you are supposed to let the tomatoes simmer.
I didn’t have a strainer, so it wasn’t quite as smooth as, say, the Cambell’s variety. [...]
Go CVS!

I see now why everyone loves shopping at CVS. You can get some amazing deals!
Today, I spent 25.77. This was more than I had been planning on saving because I got a package of Huggies that I wasn’t planning on purchasing (9.50 with a coupon) and I accidentally forgot a coupon for razors (2 [...]
