child-ish thoughts

Head swimming with beautiful child-ish thoughts…
1. Sand & Such
Check out the most beautiful sand-castle of the year (so far):
2. Hilarity
Child’s teary bedtime confession: “And then I called him a P.R.O.”
Me: “Pro?”
Child: “Yes. And if you don’t know what it means, you don’t WANT to.”
Me. “I actually do.”
Child. “You know. The worst swear. I called him […]

Candy Sushi is the answer for what ails.

posted on June 8th, 2010

It’s miraculous. A cure all for bad things that may have entered your space.
Freakish lies. Addictions to negative drama. Manufactured chaos. And probably chicken pox, warts, and hangnails, too. All things bad can be combatted with… CANDY SUSHI.
take a peek (rose colored glasses not required to see the amazingness of this):

The giggles that were created along with […]

oh elation and jubilation…

the orchid, dormant all winter long, has sprouted beautiful buds! this makes me feel quite like a domestic goddess since the only things i have kept alive long term are: a giant fig tree and my offspring.
further adding to my jubilation is the SCORE of my new fave MAC lipstick - (why oh why do they create limited edition amazingness in […]

this week’s best…

Best game:

Plants vs. Zombies (small addiction - graphics are beautiful and interestingly enough it’s cooooo to KA on the ever growing zombie pop)

Best quote:

“It’s better to be stupid than lazy.” (…spouted by my 8 year old who is not allowed to say the word “stupid” when talking of people. But let this one go. I abhor […]

you COULD go to Spin - AND/OR…

Spin might burn a few calories… (YOU KNOW YOU LOVE IT) but there are other ways to get healthy for the beach season and burn off the Starbucks:

have a romantic night in with your partner (*top of the list*)
do LOTS of kissing (*top of the list*)
drink a glass of COLD water pre working out
fidget
watch a […]

So.
…my gorgeous supermodel-ish sis goes to Spin class. and so, as a way to hang out with her [there are not enough hours in the week for us to coordinate schedules and connect] i thought i’d bite the bullet and sit on a bike beside her once and a while. 
with my rose colored glasses, i had visions […]

the beginning of a good Sunday needs…

… small boy feet running around barefoot.
… great coffee.
… pancakes (chocolate chips mandatory these days).
… bacon & hashbrowns made on bbq (not sure why it’s better like that).
… my Norton antivirus reminder to blow up and bloody well stop interrupting my work.
… MAC to tell me that it’s all a big mistake and the moisturizer […]

Text rules 101

posted on March 27th, 2010

Tech stuff = fab. But it also has the potential for irreversible grossness. Emails can be stored, voice mails recorded and replayed, texts screen-snapped and stored to show off at office parties. So, just for general reference… one may wish to note a very smart life rule to have in-pocket to carry alongside your iPhone:
If you’ve been drinking, […]

San Fran, baby.

posted on March 19th, 2010

what could be better than San Fran in the spring? 
trolley cars… best friends… “Wicked” musical… spa hotel… shopping… laughing… history and mystique…

(though fog is in my head as a prerequisite, the sunshine is happening big time)
better? not.much.

Spring Ahead?

Really? Spring ahead?
Audible groan as I awoke this morning and the clocks have moved forward. Rose colored glasses somewhere on my nightstand because my first brainwaves included a few four letter words and then moved to thinking about what I was missing today because of the lost time… 
However, post caffeine and with my glasses intact, the real question (of […]
