I hope your weekend was as smashing as mine.  haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-ha. Not funny. However I did get fairly smashed. Almost as smashed as the potatoes you see pictured. However post smashing was filled with cream filled doughnuts, hot dogs and doritos and apparently some other crumb I couldn’t identify when I woke up this morning.  I complain […]

  Tis the season for tight ends, great beer & kick ass weekend munchies. I’ve always been a huge fan of football season. I also was raised by a die-hard football fan – once college football assistant coach – father, receiving a new college tee every single weekend as well as a Super Bowl sweatshirt […]

    My son currently has 4 teeth coming. Let me repeat :  FOUR. At ONCE. And let me just say he isn’t the most graceful teether. I’ve read about children either reacting to teething or not (who are those kids, and what the hell is in their milk. Share.) However I’ve also learned that […]

And by that I mean I really wanted a glass of wine at all times. Too bad I’m a cheap drunk, one drink and I’m in […]

It’s strange to sit back and look at your life and try to figure out how you got to where you are today. Currently I’m sitting back (with a glass of wine the size of Dark Helmets dome piece) and am trying to figure out just that. I don’t regret anything, I’ve done regrets before […]

  Currently I am typing this post while munching on incredibly burnt granola. But don’t you worry I will not allow you to make the same mistake as me. Or I pray your memory/ attention span is more than that of a goldfish and does not allow you to make what was supposed to be […]

I have been redoing my Aunts kitchen cabinets and I no joke believe I have early onset arthritis in my wrists. And my ass. If that is even physically possible. I don’t even know why my rear end is included in the pain, but it is. The struggle is real. At first I thought it […]
