a fiery Mother’s Day dessert

The hubs never goes a normal route. His Mother’s Day feast was no exception.
The main course began normally enough, rotisserie grilled Cornish hens, corn on the cob and salad, but the dessert….
He enlisted Kid’s help with the charcoal chimney for starters. They lit it in the driveway. (setting things on [...]

flowering attitude

Yes, it’s April. Which, in these here parts, means Skagit County Tulip Festival. It goes through the whole month of April.
Since the weekend forecast calls for rain and snow *sigh*, I thought I’d share some snaps from earlier this week.

And the usual attitude from [...]

who IS that Easter Bunny?

We had a little egg hunt for one at our house yesterday. I hid 8 eggs inside the house and the hubs took the headlamp to hide 8 more around the front yard the night before (you apparently HAVE TO HIDE THEM OUTSIDE…).

Is this the message you want your kids to hear?? Horton Hears A Who movie review

“A person’s a person, no matter how small!”
Yes, it opened yesterday (big) and being the movie loser lover I am, I took Kid to Horton Hears a Who.
