So, I may not have mentioned this yet, but for the past week, we have been moving. In case you haven’t moved lately, it’s pretty much the worst thing ever, especially when you’re pregnant and it’s 95 degrees outside.  It makes me feel murderey, so...

Hey guys!!   I am sharing these fun, gross, and totally simple Brains In a Jar over on Living Locurto.  She’s even made free printable tags to go with!!   Click HERE for the post.   Hope to see you over there!!  (If you don’t click over, it will look...

  As my son gets older, I am starting to realize that I’m outnumbered.   I live with two boys.   TWO BOYS.   And they are gross.   Also, they don’t get me.  At all.   I’m always all making sure we have snuggly throw pillows and...

  So today is the day where we talk about my baby Jon David starting first grade this morning and I cry and you give me lots of hugs and candy.   Or money. That would probably help a little.   For some crazy reason, I thought Kindergarten would be the worst.  ...

  Sometimes I really wish I could meet the person who decides what is and isn’t acceptable to talk about to people you barely know. Because for real, a few changes need to be made. Like how is it NOT okay for me to tell someone that their clothes smell like cat pee or...

So, I’m thinking about petitioning Facebook to enable a feature called Virtual Citizen’s Arrest. Partly because I’ve always wanted to do a Citizen’s Arrest but since I’m fairly petite and have weak wrists, I avoid any confrontation that has potential...

So I have decided that having a yard sale is pretty much from The Devil. Especially when said yard sale is in rural Arkansas in 110 degree heat. The only time it’s halfway bearable to be outside is like 5:30 in the morning and honestly, I’m pretty sure that being up...

So, I’m moving out of the sticks this Summer. To a town that isn’t super huge, but does have a Starbucks, a shopping mall, and several places that will deliver pizza to your house. I feel all futuristic just thinking about it.  Did you ever see that Jetsons Meet the...

Ever since I saw this tutorial on cupcakes in a jar, I have been dying to make them. DYING. For some reason, stuff in a jar just looks yummier. Plus, it’s cute and easy to give as gifts, which makes you cool and popular. I mean, I guess there are some people who manage to...

I have been a housewife for just over six years. Which, in real life time, is like, 15 years probably. Maybe even more. And for quite some time, I’ve considered myself to be an expert in household engineering. Until now. Due to my ankle injury, I’ve been forced to...

I really struggled with the title for this post. Because Pumpkin Cake in a Jar implies that the cake is flavored with pumpkin. Pumpkin that came from a can, but was mixed into a cake batter and poured into a jar. But this cake is not pumpkin flavored. It just looks like a...
