My friend Michelle has got the porch blues. She feels her wrap around porch is…uninviting. These little guys beg to differ. At any rate, she’s looking for design tips. Personally, I think her porch just needs some color. She can’t paint or stain the porch, but maybe she paint the swings and dining set something… Continue Reading

Father’s Day Belated
I could write a post full of Hallmark sentiments and gush, but I won’t. It’s just not my nature. Instead I’ll say that I love my Gregory deeply and he is the perfect example of what a father should be. Growing up, it wasn’t rare to see my peers without daddies. And a select few… Continue Reading
For Now 11:48 PM
This is what he should be doing, but he isn’t. Instead, he is watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with his Daddy. And because I am in a zombie-like state, this is all I got…for now. 11:48 PM… Continue Reading
My Toddler LOVES Him Some Sukey’s Circle
I had received an invitation to a puppet show in NYC and since we live in Chicago, I was unable to attend. Receiving invites to events in NYC is nothing rare. I usually just brush them off. Sometimes I’ll ask to be contacted if that same event comes to Chicago. Well, that’s what I did… Continue Reading

Six Flags And Dread(loc)ks
A few days ago, I wrote a post about an incredible deal Walmart had going on for Six Flags this summer. In return for that post, I received four tickets to Six Flags. Exciting right? Especially since we are in need of a fun family getaway. Well… It has come to my attention that there… Continue Reading
Not a grumble.
Jayden and I fell asleep on the couch last night. He woke up because he began to itch. I rubbed him down with soothing cream and by then he was screaming because he hates being itchy and sitting through being rubbed. I grabbed a sippy of water from the fridge and stumbled up the stairs… Continue Reading
My First Egg Roll Attempt
I absolutely love egg rolls. Our local Chinese restaurant sells them in packs of 2 for $2.80. I wish that I could order nothing but egg rolls each week, but that would not be very frugal of me, would it? I decided that I would learn how to make egg rolls, so I’d be able… Continue Reading
