Why I Can’t Tell You My #1000Speak Topic
I have so many things to say about compassion. And yet I can’t speak. I am stunned at the response to the 1000 Voices Speak for Compassion initiative and am so excited to be a part of it. And yet, since we launched the effort about a month ago I haven’t had much to say…

Smoothie Scandal (And A Soup of the Week Update)
I have been the victim of a smoothie scandal. OK, it was not exactly a scandal, but it could have been for like five minutes. Remember a couple of months ago I did a post about Williams Sonoma asking me to be part of their Smoothie Week? Well I was of course flattered and kind…

TToT – The Dance of the SGV
I need to go lie down. Seriously. I was on my way out the door to Zilla’s school to volunteer in the library today and all of a sudden…sick. Blah. Not the best way to start off a list of thankfuls, is it? But let’s go with that for a second.

FTSF – The Memory That Haunts Me
The memory that haunts me is the one I do not have. My memories don’t haunt me. I do not live my life with regrets. OK, maybe if pressed for something I would change, I’ll admit that I probably should have stuck with the piano lessons and taken better care of my teeth. I don’t…

Once Upon a Year or Two Ago
Sometimes it’s nice to take a look at where we’ve been. Every now and then I take a look through photo albums, old letters, piles of filing in my office that need to be handled…but I haven’t done much backward observation here on my blog. Today’s as good a day as any, so come along…

Soup of the Week – Spiced Cauliflower and Sudden Growth
I am alone today. I was alone yesterday, too. Kidzilla is in school for the second day in a row with no snow day or delayed start. The Hub’s ankle is feeling better and he went back to work yesterday. I and the Rotten Cats are quietly and peacefully doing our thing. I miss them,…

Awards Time – AKA Potentially Useless But Interesting Information About Me
My Mother always told me that if someone offers you a gift or a compliment, it’s just good manners to accept it. So that’s what I’m doing here today. Miss Lizzi of Considerings offered me both a giftie and a compliment all at the same time by tagging me in this Sisterhood of the World…

Ramblings from a Dry Day
Words, words everywhere and not a one to post. I have been writing my little fingers off lately. Truly. The lack of posts here tells a different tale. Granted, I did admit the other day that much of the writing has been going elsewhere, off the blog. But still. I don’t like when this space…

Conversations with Kidzilla – Beer and Books
I love listening to my daughter talk. OK, that’s not always true. Sometimes Kidzilla starts speaking the moment her eyes open in the morning and she doesn’t stop until her eyes close again at night. And even then, sometimes she keeps right on going. On those days, it’s a bit much sensory input for my…

Science With Kidzilla – Shark Edition
Reason number 75 why I love that my child is a reader… Kidzilla saw the tweet and photo below on my screen a few days ago and said, “Hey, that’s a black-tipped reef shark!” Just when you thought it was safe to watch Discovery Channel in the summer… #SharkWeek2015 http://t.co/lmo4274Dmb pic.twitter.com/I45CLSSwsG — Frank Pallotta (@frankpallotta)…
