    My children are not predictable.  I would venture to say that your children are not predictable either.  Even the best behaved children will disobey their parents on occasion.  We should never be surprised by this, of course, because our children were born into sin, just as we were.  We all sin by our disobedience, and…

    I was in town yesterday for a doctor’s appointment, and decided to stop by our local take & bake pizza joint for a fun Valentine’s dinner for the kids.  Of course, this particular pizza joint is in the same parking lot as my favorite thrift store.  This is an “upscale” thrift store (they are picky…

    Happy Valentine’s Day!  I hope you are all finding plenty of time to enjoy the company of all of those you hold dear.  Copper is working today, and since his shifts are 7:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m., he took me out for dinner last night.  We had a lovely, quiet dinner and didn’t have to…

  • Wraps, Storage Containers, Bulk Shopping Supplies – The Less Than Perfect Kitchen

    I am blessed to have quite a bit of storage space in my kitchen.  The fact that it is poorly arranged is something, as you’ve seen, that I’ve been able to work around.  Once I had the major components of my kitchen arranged (baking center, beverage center, food preparation area, etc.), I was able to…
