I can’t really consider myself to be a true Ace of Cakes, but I figure I’m about a 10 – maybe even a Jack! Despite my lack of professional training, or even professional tools, I think I did pretty darn well on my kids’ birthday cakes this year. And because of that, I’m allowing myself… Continue reading Ace of Cakes

In much the same spirit as I offered birthday wishes for Trey, I give you a High-Five list of my favorite things about Crisana. Here goes: 5) Chatty Cathy: It’s been said that women use an average… Continue reading A High-Five for Crisana!
“Cross”-examination: Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship (OCBF)
I didn’t do a “cross”-examination last week because we didn’t go to church. *gasp* Yes, that’s right. Due to the popcorn overnighter, we ended up staying home and “resting.” But this week was different. We headed down south – and I mean south. Y’all who aren’t from around here parts, lemme fill you in on… Continue reading “Cross”-examination: Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship (OCBF)
Another Sunday Evening QB (a.k.a. Can’t-Wait-for-Monday Morning QB)
The Packers/Giants game hasn’t even started, so I don’t have anything to say about that. Not that it matters. The Patriots have just beaten the Chargers and are heading to THE SUPER BOWL, BABY!! That’s 18-0 for those of you keeping score at home. One game away from perfection. One game away from the best… Continue reading Another Sunday Evening QB (a.k.a. Can’t-Wait-for-Monday Morning QB)
The Importance of a Dash
It’s late, I’m tired, it’s been quite a day. But I’m striving toward my goal of averaging 4 posts a week, so here goes. You can call it “cheating” if you want. I prefer to call it “being resourceful.” And “letting the words speak for themselves.” And “not stealing another person’s thunder.” Today we celebrated… Continue reading The Importance of a Dash
Great Moments in AI History
It seems like an eternity since we last heard Ryan Seacrest utter those now-famous words: “THIS…is Ammmerican Idol!” It’s been months since Jordin Sparks was crowned pop’s newest queen and the confetti flew. My friends, the wait is now over! Let the auditions begin! There were many memorable auditions, many who stood out among the… Continue reading Great Moments in AI History

In honor of our new 8-year-old, I’d like to offer a “Top 8” list of the things I love most about Trey: 8 ) Such an easygoing personality – Trey could make friends with a lamppost. 7) King of… Continue reading Feeling Gr-8 ‘cuz Trey is 8!
Night at the Museum
It wasn’t exactly like this… or this… but we DID manage to sleep in a room with dinosaur bones!
I want YOU! (for a birthday party)
Bowled Over
Sad, but true. The BCS is now over. And though the LSU Tigers made short work of those Ohio State Buckeyes (for which I’m glad – GEAUX Tigers!!) – reality has set in: I’m a loser. It’s become somewhat of a tradition here in our house to have a friendly wager on the NCAA Final… Continue reading Bowled Over
