How Long Does It Actually Take to Empty the Dishwasher?
When I speak at moms' groups, I always say: "I have really bad news. Emptying the dishwasher is actually more important than running it." It is. And I'm sorry. Emptying the dishwasher first thing in the morning means I can re-fill it all day with whatever dishes get dirtied. Re-filling it all day (instead of leaving/piling random things in … [Read more...]
In Plain Sight
Sunday afternoon, as I was cleaning up the house for our church's home group, I saw this: Not the stuff in the top half. That's still invisible. I'm talking about the ice chest.

Fake Freezer Cooking – PB&Js
I saw this on Money Saving Mom recently, and it hit me like a load of DUH. Have I mentioned how much I LOATHE making lunches? Because I do. It's like a slap in my face each day when it's time to throw the sandwiches and chips and fruit and such together. I consider myself a creative person, but when it comes to making lunches, I feel like … [Read more...]
