  • Cucumber Sandwich from Hilda

    Cucumber Sandwich from Hilda

    So I recently moved. And not just that, but moved out of my old home and put everything into storage. Then I kind of lived in a few different places for a month, got everything OUT of storage and finally moved into a new home. What I would have given for a magical house in…

    Why is Sweetest Day?

    Sweetest Day is a “holiday” (my quotes) “celebrated in the Midwestern United States, and parts of the Northeastern United States, also in the northern part of Florida on the third Saturday in October.” (Wikipedia’s quote).

    The Grey Stuff from Beauty and the Beast

    In many parts of the world (or at least in my part of the world) school is now out for summer. That means three whole months of Spaghetti-o’s and daytime TV! For a lot of families with young children it means taking the trip to a Disney related theme park. And depending on the theme…
