What is your favorite type of art?
I love Monet, but any art that is pretty and thoughtful catches my attention. I´m not an abstract person.
Soup
When was the last time you got a free lunch (or breakfast or dinner)? Who paid for it?
I don´t remember. I guess for my brother-in-law´s birthday back in June.

The Grand Switcharoo

When Dante was born, we decided that instead of buying a second crib and wasting all that money, we would just have Dante sleep in a bassinet until Dorian was ready for a bed. Little did we know that the baby was going to grow like a weed! He outgrew his baby tub/bassinet in [...]
The Very Hungry Boy

Dante has recently not been satisfied with any amount of milk. Finally, we decided to try him with some solids. He´s young, just turned 4 months, but Dorian started at the same age, so it seemed like it was worth a try.
You know how babies usually dribble their food out and end up swallowing very [...]

That´s what was in a package that my friends Bernie and Lou, over at Burnt Offerings, sent me. Cool, huh? English magazines, a really cool info magazine about Australia (which is where they live) and TWO packages of the most delicious cookies ever. Bernie, I´m blaming you for my not losing any weight this [...]
A Survey Company That Might Actually Be Worth It
Posted on September 17, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
I keep seeing all these ads for survey companies and reading how people supposedly earn hundreds of dollars for this stuff. Unfortunately, I´m never eligible for them because I don´t live in the US or Canada.
But, I just got wind of a new site called A.W. Surveys that actually accepts international survey takers [...]

Irving got home late last night after having been away for two long days. At the beginning of the weekend, I simply decided that I was not going to stress about work and that I wouldn´t worry about checking my emails or looking to see if someone had commented on my blog every five minutes. [...]
Need Some Motivation?

I just started a Motivational Monday theme over on my At Home Mom blog. It´s meant for wahms, but if you just need some inspiration, it works, too! I´ll be posting an interview with a successful work at home mom every Monday, as well as another post later in the day with some other motivating [...]
Are You Ready for Christmas?
Posted on September 16, 2007 - Filed Under Mom Stuff, Personal | Leave a Comment
Every year, I make all these grandiose plans for Christmas and every year, I end up scrambling to find gifts and get some sort of food together for the holiday. Forget about cookies and Yule logs, I´m hard pressed to finish crocheting a hat for the baby!
I think I just need to be more organized. [...]
I Miss My Bed
Posted on September 15, 2007 - Filed Under Personal, Simple Life | Leave a Comment
I´m starting to wish I had just ignored that darn dip in our bed. It´s been over a month now and we are still crammed onto a single bed, with me sleeping head down and Irving the other way around. It sucks.
We went to the store three days ago and although the family that [...]
