Move . . . Fingers . . . Move . . .
Uh wn shpn. That's about as verbal as I feel right now. I just went on the shopping trip from . . . well . . . a difficult-to-relax kind of place. It was so bad that I had to call my husband and ask him if I could just vent for a few minutes. I love that man and how he totally understands and lets me be me. Basically, picture the most … [Read more...]
Normal People Scare Me
I love blogging. I'm generally an open person. But I don't tell any "normal people" about my blog.

But Slobs are So Much Fun . . . .
I visited Lifeasmom.com's Birthday Cake Round-up. Why? Because I love love love themed kid parties and making the cakes to go along with them. This is the ladybug cake from my daughter's 3rd birthday. I used my big glass measuring thingy from Pampered Chef because I remembered hearing at a party that you could use it to bake a cake.
