Decluttering the Laundry Room

August 31, 2014 By Dana White | 29 Comments

Oh, how I wish I'd run out of things to write about around here . . . . No such luck. I'm sure it started with one little thing thrown into the laundry room just before the doorbell was supposed to ring. Then another thing and one more. And then, since it was a "junk spot" anyway, other random things that didn't have a home got dumped … [Read more...]

2 Minute-Task – Cleaning the Fryer

August 29, 2014 By Dana White | 10 Comments

I mentioned on facebook over the summer that I was excited to find fresh okra at our local Farmer's Market. I. Love. Okra. So much. Mmmmmmm. Sorry. I got distracted. Anyway, I googled my own recipe for what I don't hesitate to declare is the very best fried okra ever. I also dug around in a cabinet and found my fryer. I almost … [Read more...]

Five Years Later, I Did the Laundry

August 28, 2014 By Dana White | 13 Comments

I officially missed my fifth blogiversary. Some bloggers host parties and giveaways to celebrate the anniversary of the day they started blogging, but I'm pretty sure that will never happen around here. I started blogging the day my second child went to kindergarten. That means the first day of school (or somewhere around there) always marks the … [Read more...]

Parmesan Pepper Seasoned French Fries Recipe

August 27, 2014 By Dana White | 7 Comments

  This isn't really a recipe. It's more of a What I Did post. But I had to share. My family insisted. I've seen recipes online for french fries tossed in stuff. I'm sure that information was hiding in the depths of my brain when it burst forth without specifics this summer. Basically, this is a "recipe" born out of guilt. Out … [Read more...]

Back on Track: The Constant Battle Against my Delusions of “Normal”

August 26, 2014 By Dana White | 25 Comments

I'm not normal. I know that. But I still live with this delusion that someday, Normal will happen. Specifically, that my life will be normal. That I'll get a routine figured out and that routine will work for the rest of my life. The rest of my entire life. No adjustments needed. I know better. Really, I do. But I still struggle with this … [Read more...]

August 12, 2014 By Dana White | 11 Comments

 Oh how this letter from one of you made me giggle!! Dear Nony, I have been diligently working to get my house clean and organized before I go back to school in a week.
