Today is my little sister’s 40th birthday!!! Sounds “Old”. My kids tell us it’s “Old”. I’m pretty sure we are still the same two goofballs laughing over Brady Bunch and Peter’s “Pork shops and applesawce…”. Neither of us can make or eat that dish without saying it just like Peter! That’s swell!! Here’s a few

— 1 — We’ve been in a rut (according to the kids) as far as dinner goes, so I’ve been letting our youngest (8) pick out a few new dinners from our Publix Apron Meals collection. (We grab the recipe every week while they stalk chat up Rick, the cooking dude and see if he

We live in an area that is EXTREMELY popular with the retirement-aged people. EXTREMELY. So much in fact, that during the winter when the “snow birds” descend our church offers TWO Masses on Saturday evenings to cover the additional population in the pews.

Why wouldn’t you follow

Day off from work and spent (mostly) with family @ the beach…. Hubby and my cousin went kayaking in the ocean–unfortunately all the pics were on my COUSIN’S phone since he had never done anything like that before and wanted some documentation!

Once again, it’s Friday and I’m recapping the week with Jennifer Fulwiler @ Conversion Diary and all her peeps. It’s a good way to summarize the week and since I’m “blogging everyday in May” it fills another post! So head over to Conversion Diary and check out everyone’s week and our little group as well

I enjoyed a lovely day yesterday in spite of working on my birthday. Hubby and the kids were super sweet and attentive to the Queen (as it should be, right?). My Facebook, text and voicemail was full of well wishes and serenades from family and friends, quite entertaining!! My work peeps treated me to a

Today is my birthday…..dah, dah, dah, dah,dah, dah! Though I’m announcing it through my blog, be assured I generally prefer to have the spotlight on me, though I DO enjoy making a big deal out of everyone else’s birthday.
