Rain-out? What’s That?
I have never done sports, indoor or out. I was a drama/chorus/yearbook geek, entirely uncoordinated, C- in P.E. type. So, when it started drizzling yesterday afternoon, I thought, “Oh, good, we probably won’t have a game tonight!” No such luck. I did grab some snacks (copped out with snack bags of […]
Soccer Snacks
Well, it’s soccer season, and I have snack duty the very first game, Tuesday! Anyone have suggestions that will make me the coolest soccer mom ever? Last season, I brought baggies of strawberries, grapes, and apples. I think I spent $20 on all that fruit!!! I’m hoping to get off a […]
Baby & The Bathwater
So, does anyone have any statistics on how much bathwater a baby will drink in their toddler years? Does it differ between boys and girls? I swear, my girls would suck on a washcloth occasionally, but this boy! He scoops it up with any cup-like bath toy, including his water drum, and […]

Today’s Verse
According to my sidebar today, here’s the verse of the day:
“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:6-7)
“You are worth more than […]Turkey Enchilada Recipe — HELP
Update II: (Not that anyone’s following this) We found it!!! Sis finally bought both cookbooks on Ebay, and found the Enchilada recipe in the Favorite Homestyle Recipes cookbook. Since we couldn’t find it on the Web ANYWHERE, I’m thinking there might be copyright issues if I post it here. If […]
