What We Saw at the Hot Dog Joint

If you’re looking for the Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop post, click here! I had a terrible craving for a hot dog this week. While any hot dog probably would have done the trick, I figure it’s best to go with the tried and true in a case like this. Since we were out running errands…

TToT – Continued Progress

It doesn’t seem possible that a week has passed already. I can’t say I’m happy about how fast these days have flown. I need this summer to stretch long before us…we have a lot to do. And that’s exactly what we’ve been doing this week – a lot. We’ve continued to work on our Great…

Summer Sundays

It’s amazing how one thing – a scent, a sound – can transport you back in time to a memory you didn’t even know you had… Sunday’s weather was glorious – warm, but not too hot. The sky was blue and filled with puffy white clouds – the kind that look like beautifully huge cotton…

Every Day Love

I’ve been thinking a lot about love the last couple of days. For starters, there’s that rather large and obvious thing called Valentine’s Day that has just passed us by. Kinda can’t miss that. Love it or hate it, there it is. I can’t say we’re huge fans of Valentine’s Day here. We’re not huge…

TToT – Snow and Ice Edition

Is it really the end of the week? I’m not sure exactly how that happened. Maybe it’s because we had a three day week again…snow days Thursday and Friday and here we are in the very wee hours of Saturday already. So yeah, I’m so not prepared for TToT yet. I think we’ll wing this…
