I’m all alone with 700 children and 835 animals. The Husband is off on a business trip this week, then he’ll be gone again next week. Muahahahahaha. I feel like rolling around on the carpet, naked, but then I realize that not a whole lot has changed, except that now I don’t have friendly reminders for all the stuff I forget. All hail sticky notes, especially those plastered all over my house. My craft fair was rained out on Saturday, so I’m contemplating ways to display a...
Women, Communities, The Internet and Hippymom In the first of what promises to be a hilarious un-foodie series, Melia bakes a pie… and more. Luscious Decadence has cake, so there.
