The comments are trickling in on my give-away below, which makes me wonder if, indeed, all my readers are in Pittsburgh! In the off chance that I do have some locals reading, here are a couple of clarifications: 1. You get to pick the day(s) you can attend. The show runs until February 22nd, and the box office at Children's Theatre will work with … [Read more...]
“Snowflake”: Lovely, Lyrical, Simply Great
(a review and a give-away) (just for you) If you're local and want to plan a fun outing... I highly recommend going to see Snowflake. We did. See? I know it's a blurry selfie and all, but that was us. I promise! I'm never sure about trips to the theater because, well, some of my kids can be a little squirmy. I can assure you that … [Read more...]
Now Playing on Netflix
So maybe you're a bit bummed by the play-offs like me, or maybe--just maybe--you're ecstatic. Either way, the odds are good that you're on holiday today (we are) and you'd like something fun to do with the kids. How about a pet-themed movie and popcorn? Because you know what they say... When the Packers lose to the team that was losing, … [Read more...]
Storyboard: Life
Warning: This post contains references to suffering and pain. That's life. We've got to deal with it. Do you know what I wish? I wish I had all the time in the world to dink around on this blog. I could, quite happily, spend the entire day writing about the people in my life. Like that, I wouldn't have to deal with them. ;) (Note the winky … [Read more...]
2015: A List of Good Things
I sound like Martha Stewart, don't I? Well, given that we're seven days into the new year...and it's a bitterly cold day here..but sunny...so yay... I wanted to share five very good things. (As opposed to, you know, five very bad things, because who really needs to be dragged down?) Granted, these are my good things...but they are entirely … [Read more...]
A Kid, a Couch, a Path, Destruction
(To his credit, that rip was already there.) Happy New Year, everyone! Any advice on where to get a nice couch? I am in earnest when I ask this, as we desperately need something more...intact than this one. My husband says Craig's List but I'm like, ew. Also, I'm thinking leather on account of Cate's allergies, though I did love my pretty … [Read more...]
Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and why I’m doing another Whole30
Merry Christmas! Are you having as much fun policing board game pieces as I am? One of my New Year's resolutions is to worry less about the mess and actually play the board games with them, which is why I said yes to playing Clue this morning. It was quite early when my 5-year-old asked—like, before-I'd-even-finished-my-first-coffee early—and … [Read more...]
Merry Christmas!
With love and blessings from our house to yours, … [Read more...]

Netflix Giveth
A December Give-Away (with a bonus coping mechanism thrown in at the end) Every now and then, my freelance work with Netflix means that a little treat shows up on my doorstep. I love that! This month, they sent me a goodie box for New Year's Eve (more on that in a week or so), and two complimentary gift cards for a year's subscription to their … [Read more...]
