I’m kinda mad that y’all didn’t tell me how easy it was to make my own frosting. 5-15 minutes depending on how much I screw up? Ridiculous. Putting aside my white frosting not ever being white, I’ve been very impressed. With myself. Also, with how good my homemade frosting tastes. But I need some help [...]

My daughter is in cahoots with Crayola. Because all my markers look like this Sometimes N tricks me into thinking that she has changed, but the tops aren’t on tight enough. If I wanted my kids to draw a rainbow, I’d have to buy new markers every other week. Although if I could just purchase [...]

J asks: What are you supposed to do/say when another child is the grabby kid, taking a toy out of your better trained (or behaved?) child’s hand? What do you say to your kid about that? What – if anything – do you say to the grabby kid? And is what you say different if [...]

The zits are all mine, and the $50 gift card to drugstore.com could be yours. There are a lot things about growing up that aren’t cool. Like the gray hairs showing up in my early 20s. Or the strange stomach pooch that my OB so proudly gave me post-Cesarean. But I comfort myself with my [...]
