The Skinny ~ Katie from Overflowing Brain
We have questions. Twitter has answers. And, it’s there where we find…the skinny. This week, I interviewed the one and only Katie from Overflowing Brain. She is excellent at baking, is very sarcastic (but apologizes way too much for it), and OH YEAH has a gigantic brain. If there was an Olympic event for people with weird injuries, Katie wouldn't be able to compete. Because she'd be injured. 1. What's your favorite midnight snack? It's well documented that I love anything in the cake family. But if we're being completely honest (which I rarely am), my midnight snack isn't cake based, mostly because ...
Fat People TV
This is where I review this week in weight loss TV shows to try and inspire myself to not eat all of the damn birthday cake that seems to keep invading my kitchen. I was down 12 lbs. Then back up 4. Because donuts are good and blood and needles are messy. On the bright side, still down 8 which puts me right on track to be with the lame asses on Celebrity Fit Club... Celebrity Fat Club, I mean Fit Club, is testing me. These, so-called "celebrities" are drama whores and I have questioned their commitment to this from the beginning. Sebastian Bach: "I'm ...
Do I Look Like a Pirate?
One of the first pirated movies I ever got was The Cutting Edge. You see, things were different back in the day. Back in the stone age when we watched things on VHS tapes. Back in 1992 when I was still in elementary school. Back when we made each other mix tapes on our boom boxes and had to use the rewind button to skip to the next song. Back in those days there was no utorrent or bittorrent or mininova or isohunt. It was even the days before Napster. No. If you saw a movie in the theater that you ...
Can I Get an Order of FAIL With That?
Last weekend I watched Food Inc and solemnly swore to myself never to eat McDonalds again. Then I got my period and needed French fries from McDonalds more than I needed oxygen. I drove toward the gleaming arches in a hormonal fog, salivating at the thought of salty, probably-crack-infused goodness to sooth my aching crampy body. (Sidenote: You know, in actuality, I get an entirely different and equally un-awesome type of cramps when I eat McDonalds. Will I ever learn? Probably not.) Anyway, I pulled into the drive-through line and called my friend and started chatting about ...

Frog Balls are the New Black, Or Green… I’m so Confused
The last time I enjoyed a video game was in 1981, and I was playing Frogger with my younger brothers. Every game I’ve played since then sucks balls. Not frog balls, just regular balls.
Do frogs even have balls? I’d Google it, but I’m worried about the porn results [...]

A Day in the Life
2:30—Leave house.
2:45—Get to the carpool lot to pick up kid #3.
3:30—Leave said lot after ridiculously methodical procession while cursing about those 45 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
3:45—Go to party supply store to get Mardi Gras stuff for class party and rethink EVER volunteering again or maybe dig [...]

Cool and Easy Seeds to Grow with Kids
It’s that time of year…at least it is for us gardening-type people. This is the time of year we start dreaming of spring. If you’re very lucky you live in one of those states or provinces like California or British Columbia and if you’re not gardening [...]

I Am Watching The Sex Scenes for RESEARCH. Yup.
I lost my virginity on my wedding night.
Yes. It’s true.
Some days I am thankful that THE GUILT guided me through this abstinence club (I am Donna Martin!) of my youth. I am thankful that I have only ever had sex with one man; my husband. I am glad [...]

The Freaky Plastic Burger King Dude Has it Out for Me
Believe it or not, I don’t have many vices. Xanax is a friend of mine on occasion, sure, but I can honestly say, I don’t depend on it (except that time of the month or when my husband is on vacation or the kids are home on summer break [...]
