Other Things O
What a great weekend it has been in terms of healthy eating, mostly because of a great dinner my husband and I were able to share with friends on Saturday night. And, best of all—I didn’t have to cook the great dinner. Don’t get me wrong. I love cooking, but it’s nice to have a [...]
Dear Ann: When will I learn that when a small boy is locked in the bathroom with the water running, the dog is barking and he says he’s doing nothing to call 911?
I was wondering tonight when our country—which includes myself as a citizen—lost the ability to feed ourselves? It’s so evident (by looking at our rear-ends) that that most of us have lost this part of our brain, which is labeled “commonsense” brain matter. What the heck happened? Feeding ourselves should be commonsense, but most of [...]
Dear Ann Landers: We have a number of Jesus pictures scattered around the house and my five-year has asked me at least 100 times if Jesus is a girl – because of that long hair. He just won’t take “no” for an answer. Instead of arguing with him again, I spent some time tonight scanning [...]
Water. I wish I were a fan. Then, I wouldn’t be spending an inordinate amount of time wading (not literally) through America’s VERY VAST beverage options. Going inside the local 7-11 these days makes me dizzy. I bet there are 10,000 beverage options wedged inside a place not much bigger than P-Wee Herman’s Playhouse. Random.

Yes, we had a “Wok Out” this weekend. The 18-year old, barely been used, wedding gifted Wok went up in smoke Saturday afternoon. If I was a superstitious woman, I’d be worried about my marriage, but thankfully, my husband continues to remind me that we are not cheap, Chinese-made appliances.
So, what was a girl to [...]
Dear Ann Landers: Oh, Lordy . . .it never ends. Today it was, “REALLY, mom? Name ONE person who died from sleeping in an unmade bed.”
Well, it’s midnight on Friday and guess what time it is? Yip! Time to figure out what produce-inspired masterpiece I’m going to whip up this weekend. As I mentioned yesterday, the 18-year old WOK is calling my name. I actually used the WOK a lot during the first couple of years of my marriage—you know, [...]
The combination of being a huge fan of good food, pledging to eating massive amounts of fruits and veggies daily and general dinner time exhaustion can only mean one thing when you leave lip-licking lunch leftovers at work—weeping in the garage (so that only the dog sees how pitiful you are over a forgotten PF [...]
One of the biggest challenges for me and my eccentric (i.e. crappy) eating habits are my wife-mother-work schedule. The ticker inside me is set to “15 minutes late,” so I’m constantly missing out on meals. When I should be eating breakfast, I’m playing hide and seek with my son’s elusive tennis shoes. When I should [...]
