… about the time my mom said something hilarious and true to my grandmother (God rest her immortal soul). You see years ago, in the ‘rhymes with flap-tist’ religion, they preached against a lot of things. Dating Catholics. Being around races other than yourself. Jews. FROM THE PULPIT.

Today I want to share with you a craft that I completed for my kids for church for Easter Sunday. I think it turned out really well and was very simple. I made them a quiet book/board book to look at during services. This will be a staple in my purse/diaper bag, something interesting for … [Read more…]
No, I’m not futzing in my dryer or playing with my belly button (I don’t have one, anyway)…I’m talking about Easter Lent.

Well, you’ve seen wedding pictures, it was a long night mostly because of driving, and the indeterminable (and crushing) wait for food and music to start once the wedding was done, while trying to keep 2 kids calm who normally eat a half hour before the wedding even started. So Sunday morning, naturally, we all … Metformin discount
