It's entirely possible that what I'm about to write is one of those things that will completely disqualify me from ever being mother of the year, but it's true so I think I'll go ahead and tell you anyway. This part of Christmas... the part I'm in the midst of RIGHT NOW as I type … Continue reading disqualified…

post coital bliss… or the halloween that almost wasn’t
Normally just after (or just before) October 31st I supply you with photos of the Halloween festivities that pepper my family life throughout the month of October. Not this year. I was sick, we were harried, life was hectic. So instead of the sweet family portrait of the three of us dressed in some sort … Continue reading post coital bliss… or the halloween that almost wasn’t
things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
I just finished singing a power ballad about my iced tea and soy sausage. Yes... I eat soy sausage. No I'm not leaving bacon or pork sausage behind, I just happen to like this particular brand of soy sausage too. The tea I was singing about (and to) is almost gone. I need to buy … Continue reading things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
mother’s day: the good, the bad and the ugly
And when I say ugly... I really do mean ugly. Like, OMG, so ugly.

thankful…
I realize that Thanksgiving is the time I'm supposed to be thankful for stuff and things and what not, but I can't help it that it's now during the winter holiday that I'm feeling thankful. Never mind the more than 2 feet of snow settled into our yard. Forget that I have to cancel my … Continue reading thankful…
roast beast…
I'm going to be too busy tonight playing wii, drinking rum and serving roast beast to my rum toting friends to write an honest to goodness blog post, so instead I'll give you the highlights of my day thus far: - I woke up to discover that even though I didn't think there could possibly … Continue reading roast beast…
my second favorite holiday, frick
I have always, and I do mean always, loved Halloween most. There's something about a day where we get to dress up, fancy, frilly, frightening, whatever and enjoy a day with our friends and family eating scary treats and parading the streets with flashlights and glow sticks. Every year I revel in Halloween and every … Continue reading my second favorite holiday, frick
I may have to cancel Christmas…
You read it, it's true. I may have to cancel Christmas... or the "Holidays". Or maybe I'm being a bit of a drama queen and what I'm really saying is that I may have to cancel the 2008 Holiday song contest. "WHAT!!??? NO!!!??? Why Cami, WHY?? We love your badly sung holiday song contest with … Continue reading I may have to cancel Christmas…
Thanksgiving — Why Bother Planning?
This next guest author needs no introduction, because luckily she's written one into the very first sentence! *** So, if you're like me, Melissa Lion of Recovering Californian fame, you've talked a big game about how you're going to cook Thanksgiving dinner FROM SCRATCH because, basically you're the man with balls of steel and a … Continue reading Thanksgiving — Why Bother Planning?
Deb on the Rocks Writes Me a Love Letter…
This part of the post up here at the top? Still me... Cami. I couldn't just thrust my darling guests into these pages without a wee bit of introduction could I?
