Oprah Winfrey signs off network television, May 25, 2011 after 25 years. That’s tomorrow. It’s hard to believe that her show debuted in Chicago on September 8, 1996. I will admit that I have watched a lot of Oprah episodes over the years so I will be home watching the last episode with a box […]
5 Summer Getaways Every Child Should Experience
Summer is upon us and for my daughter and me, it means mostly a break from the daily routine.

Moms as Surgeons – Wordless Wednesday w/Linky
We moms have to perform many duties and one such duty includes performing surgery on lost body parts on dolls. My daughter hounded me until I fixed this little guy’s nose. After an intense search of fabric glue (remind me to label boxes), surgery was performed and now he is back to new and all […]
Mother’s Day Poem and Alexander McQueen – Best Mother’s Day Gifts
Alexander McQueen, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Homemade breakfast, Mother’s Day Poem and City Crab for dinner, all in one day, now that’s a great Mother’s day.
