While sitting on my patio today and watching the rain I started to ask myself, why the heck am I outside? This downpour and the heat together makes perfect weather for ruining a girl's hair and I'm tired of using the flat iron when I'm kinda sorta trying to go natural...so why in the world am I watching the raindrops?



Well, I'm watching my plants…

Looking through my newsfeed on facebook today freaked me out. I have just had it with the newborn pictures. It inspired a blog post rant. I hope you enjoy. Even if you have put your newborn in a rose and taken pictures, I hope you can find the humor in here!

Oh my gosh! So this Valentine's Day was the sweetest, yet simplest for me. I think my husband secretly reads my blogs, because it's been a long time since he's actually took the time to plan something...he must've read my rant, right?



Anyhoo, Valentine's Day morning as I was getting the boys ready for school, he gave me my usually kiss and whispered that he had a spa day planned for me. For a normal girl, she would've probably jumped for joy. But me being an abnormal girl just…

The snow is falling outside and all I can do is long for the Spring-like weather of last week. The weather was so mild that I donned my new shoes and went hunting for the signs of Spring in my garden.…

The transition time between the frigid, wet winter (yes, it gets cold and wet in Southern California too!) and the heat of the summer is, by far, my favorite time of the year. Growing up on the East Coast, spring came in spits and spats with the crocus bulbs blooming through patches of snow and the first robin spotted on the front lawn that looked like it had not seen the sun for months. But once the snow was completely gone and people braved the outdoors wearing only a t-shirt (even though…

I have never claimed to be an artist, that is, drawing, painting, sculpting and so on. Though I grew up surrounded by oils, turpentine's, canvases, paint brushes, paint cans. Our house or wherever… Continue

Pleasing to the sight and heavenly to our sense of smell, flowers are used for all sorts of special occasions and home decoration. Oils from flowers are used in aromatherapy, and certain flowers are even used as a dietary therapy due their… Continue

Occasions, such anniversaries, are meant to be special. How can you add an extra touch to make that particular celebration even more memorable? Here are two options: you can go to a posh restaurants and spend 2 weeks of groceries on one meal, or you can do it at home. Dining at home doesn’t seem very special, let alone romantic, especially since you do it practically every day. But, as I recently found out, there are ways to create a unique and… Continue

First off, I have to thank that fabulous word weaver, Allison, for having entertained the masses so well!! There’s always a place for you here in Crazy Town baby! As for me, I decided to spend the time I freed up (by suckering her in to doing my post today) to catch up on my own reading, & I made the rounds of many of my fave blogs. Imagine my surprise to hear one story after another of Mother’s…

This episode actually began more than a week before Valentine's Day, on February

5, 2010.



I received a new position at work - an amazing accomplishment - and within 30 minutes of the announcement I received a very beautiful bouquet of

flowers. They were so fragrant and diverse. I have to say they were really

beautiful. I was actually surprised that they were sent by The Flower Guy.

Simple card: "Congratulations on your new job."



It's really weird. I… Continue
