Shop ’til ya drop!
Oh boy, I'm sitting here on a Sunday night after a weekend full of shopping for this, that, and the other. I did manage to avoid the "bagillions" of folks who camped out (in some cases on Thanksgiving day!) to get in on the "Black Friday" hype-no thanks! I even read where a department store [...]
Thanksgiving in India: a mommy blogger’s account
I thought that it should be fitting to see how a fellow American mommy is dealing with the recent terrorist attacks in India. She has lived there for a few months as her husband works for the American govt. They are stationed in Chennai. While some people are dealing with the issues of greed on [...]
My name is Laura…
Since it is the season when we find ourselves traveling over the river and through the woods and over the mountains and to the coast and to the airport and back again to celebrate the holidays with those we love it only seems fitting that I repeat this post. My name is Laura… …and I [...]
Thanksgiving: What the kids think

How’s it going, Thanksgiving cooks?
It's Tuesday and I've already made the potatoes, gravy, bean casserole and stuffing. I cheated just a little tiny bit because Dream Dinners had a holiday side dish station this month that included all that plus biscuits. I made all the dishes at once and messed up THEIR kitchen. Cool, huh? By the way, Dream Dinners [...]
I lovvve being a mom during Thanksgiving because…
…of Queen Anne Cordial Cherries. Their ooey gooey perfection erases any burden I might be feeling at the moment and holds my taste buds at ransom; leaving me begging for more and more. I didn't always have complete and total access to these sweet delights though. No no no. When I was little, if I [...]
