Right now, she is downstairs throwing a fit because I told her to clean the playroom. You can’t walk on the floor. Not my room, not my toys. She gets to clean. And she’d rather cry for hours than shut up and get it clean in about 20 minutes. Anyhow, other topics. I took Ada [...]

I complained about my dwelling vegetables. And it was true. One of my produce storage bins held only a partially used head of garlic and the other had a small piece of ginger root. They are usually full, with spill over on the shelf above. But I had food. I mean, I recently bought a [...]

We all dread the day, even though it comes for everybody at sometime. You know it will happen, but you aren’t prepared regardless. Squanto fell ill. Suddenly and in a bad way. He was extremely anemic to a point where he couldn’t walk. My Squanto Puppycake died this evening, very peacefully with his human daddy [...]

Some virus has grabbed a hold of me, and I blame my children. Or, my children’s schools. Both of my kids were sick last week. Ada was home for the first three days, two of them spent with a fever. I had one with her on Wednesday, but it wasn’t very high and was gone [...]

Customer service is still done correctly today. More after one that isn’t. Read this example of not so great customer service. Besides the obvious reasons to never buy from this online retailer, the email from the CEO clinched it. “Your email just reached the top of my inbox and its kind of late, so  I’ll [...]

Close your eyes, non-sugar people. This one isn’t for you. First, this note: I have to go to get groceries today, and I hope that it isn’t the last time that I get to buy Iwig milk. I’d hate to go to Kansas City for milk. This is another one without a recipe, except for [...]
