Insomnia is a great thing for catching up on blog posts. Since I’m trying to keep things in chronological order, many of them are buried in previous month’s archives. If you’re interested in reading a months’ worth of Sunday posts, here they are: February 1 February 8 February 15 February 22 March 1 March 8

Born in Arizona, Moved to Babylona…
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP7AJiQM2RI[/youtube] Yesterday, Matt and I had a date. A date with a boy king, no less. The background to the story is long and since no one probably cares, I’ll spare you the details. However, through the generosity of a very special family member, we were able to go see the King Tut exhibit at… Continue reading Born in Arizona, Moved to Babylona…
South Beach Update – Week 12
I was never very good at math. I struggle with even the most basic mathematical concepts. I have a hard time balancing my checkbook. And let’s not even talk about geometry or calculus. I do much better when letters represent sounds, not numbers. But here’s a proof I discovered – on my own, no less… Continue reading South Beach Update – Week 12
Sarah’s Sweet 16!
How can it be? My niece is 16 today! For once, I won’t focus on how old that makes me feel, because really, to a 16 year old I AM old. Let’s face it. I’ve had my driver’s license for more years than she’s been alive, so yeah, I fall into the “old but hopefully… Continue reading Sarah’s Sweet 16!

The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities… Continue reading Death of a Doughboy

I confess, I’m not very good when it comes to making potato salad. I either overcook the potatoes, thereby creating a mashed potato gloopy mess, or I undercook them and end up with a potato salad where the potatoes are crunchier than the celery. Neither option is particularly appetizing. In the 18 years since I… Continue reading By Popular Demand
At a loss
I sit here at my desk, tears stinging my eyes, my heart broken. And I’m at a complete loss for words. So forgive me if my post today seems a bit bumbling, a bit disconnected, a bit scattered.  I’m feeling much the same way right now. The family of one of Crisana’s preschool classmates is… Continue reading At a loss
Do you SALSA?
Yesterday being Cinco de Mayo and all, I decided to celebrate by posting some great salsa recipes. However, due to it being Monday and having to deal with unexpected little crises like Peekaboo throwing up IN MY SHOES, I wasn’t able to sit down to organize my thoughts into even a somewhat-coherent passage. So, despite… Continue reading Do you SALSA?
“Cross”-examination: the final chapter?
It has been a long time since I’ve done a “cross”-examination. Please don’t take that to mean we’ve quit going to church. We haven’t. We just haven’t been visiting new churches every week. Rather, I have a little “love story” to share with you…
