I have 475386572 posts in draft and not a single one of them got published. You can blame her, and her, and her, and him.
Sooo, it’s 22 days until Blissdom and I know some of you are all in a flurry about it. I started a post like this in [...]

Random thoughts.
Awhile ago, I watched Edie’s ghetto video about makeup for those of us who aren’t 25 anymore. I am a convert. I want to hear what tips those of you who “aren’t 25 anymore” are using. I’m feeling my age. My mother says I was never a kid – I [...]

photography Trouble wagon fall leaves outdoor portraits

I often do blog boot camp with my clients, and the first thing I always tell them is: be consistent, publish on a regular basis and don’t start each post with, “I’m sorry it’s been awhile… ” So, if you want to grow your blog, do as I say, not as I [...]

Missed those suckers like crazy this weekend.
I’m sick again and not feeling very interesting and kinda nasaly. You probably shouldn’t get too close to your screen. Apparently I have the immune system of something permeable and osmosis-ish. What’s with that? So, I’m taking you on a tour. So get those [...]

Look around… notice anything different about m3b? I’ve been hemming and hawing about the direction of this blog.
So the FTC wants full-disclosure for blogger/sponsor relationships by December 1. This means that for every advertiser or company that wants to run a give-away or sponsor m3b, I need to issue a disclosure statement. [...]

I drove my car until it died. It’s not a pretty ending. And people can make fun of minivans all they want; I loved mine (may she rest in peace). But, instead of be-boping out of state like savvy little travelers, the boybarians and I barely made it half-away across the [...]

The Boybarians’ Favorite Bread

July 6, 2009

I’ve had at least a dozen loaves fold in on themselves and become dense, yeasty masses…
I’ve had a dozen more bake themselves out of the Breadman – expanding out of the pan, making a big, fluffy dough mess all over the machine.
But, I’ve finally nailed down the perfect loaf. It took nearly 6 months… [...]

Inspiration from the Blogosphere

As a blog designer, I spent a ton more time on others’ blogs than my own. I always say I would be such a great blogger, if it weren’t like bringing the office home. Even still, I love the blogosphere. Not [...]

I know I am not the only mom out there who walks into the laundry room and feels a pit of despair. My laundry room is like Octomom meets a common rabbit… I swear the laundry is reproducing itself.

Hellooooo beautiful blogosphere. Oh, how I have missed you. I wish I had a fabulous excuse for my absence, like… “I was in Mexico,” or “I was off doing (insert something fabulous here)” but mostly I’ve been fighting homeschool burnout, cabin fever and major case of if-it-snows-one-more-time-I’m-going-to-throw-a-fit-that-might-put-a-2-year-old-to-shame.
