Newer posts →. February 16, 2011 · 10:58 pm. I come from a family of four: me, my sister, and twin brothers. My husband insists that we’re Italian, based on the way we eat together. He and my brother-in-law are nearly stunned to silence as we volley inside jokes and insults across the dining room. In an instant, the conversation can switch from global warming to organized religion to who. Carson in the center. You can see the mischief in his eyes. As I shuffled into our bedroom in the quest for something...

I hate. running. (but i’m going to try it anyway). On leaving →. April 13, 2011 · 9:26 pm. Differing expectations are one of the most entertaining and maddening parts of marriage. I’m not talking about the big things money, sex, children, etc. I’m talking about those moments you THOUGHT you knew your spouse completely, and then he up and tells you he doesn’t like pork (which you’d been cooking for the last six months). Could finally be that couple! 8220;Why are you wearing that? 10 I’m exhausted fr...

Finished 1.10.11. My rating: 4* * / 5* * *. The lives of three men collide after the sudden death of a woman they all loved. Left with only their professional ambitions, the trio separately strives for the fame they believe they deserve, no matter who it hurts. A wonderfully crafted parable about blurring lines between personal gain and the greater good. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

the daily dish: pier 1 “maribeth” | chelseycomelately

Life lessons from producing. I’m still here →. February 26, 2011 · 11:21 am. The daily dish: pier 1 “maribeth”. Yesterday I was writing a story about a Pier 1 candle recall. And went to their website to find more information. Uh oh. I’m usually a Crate and Barrel girl, but the bright spring colors were a bit intoxicating. While “researching,” I checked out the dining section, and spotted these side plates for only $5! Pier 1’s within driving distance. How. Life lessons from producing. I’m still here.

The daily dish: pier 1 “maribeth” →. February 19, 2011 · 10:32 am. Life lessons from producing. It’s been a really tough week at work. I think I jinxed it when I saw the forecast and thought, “No snow! Bet it will be an easy week! 8221; Apparently the Ikea coffee table I then knocked on was not real wood. As I mused about the horrible week later that night, I realized I’ve learned a lot about life from the control room:. 1 The best-laid plans can be wiped out in a moment. 2 Panicking helps no one. Though...

why i can’t spend less than $100 on groceries | chelseycomelately
https://chelseycomelately.wordpress.com/2011/04/06/why-i-cant-spend-less-than-100-on-groceries
I’m still here. I hate. running. (but i’m going to try it anyway) →. April 6, 2011 · 9:35 pm. Why i can’t spend less than $100 on groceries. I consider myself a frugal person. My husband and I don’t have cable or cell phones. We rarely eat out. We buy clothes when we need them, but never head to the mall without a particular purpose. We get our books from the library and borrow rarely-used items from friends. But one area of our budget I cannot seem to master: grocery shopping. It’s not that I̵...

June 21, 2011 · 9:13 pm. April 13. If you hadn’t noticed, that was the date of my last blog post (which, in blogger land, probably means you died before April 20). I’ve already come clean with you about my poor journaling habits, so hopefully you weren’t too worried. The last two months have been some of the most unnerving, anxiety-filled months of my life. Since April 13, my husband and I have made a series of exciting and terrifying decisions, revolving around our choice to move to Texas. Why, you ask?

When my husband discovered I had started a blog, he looked me in the eye and said firmly, “Promise me this won’t take over your life.”. Oh, how little he needed to worry. Justice at last. Dallas, TX - 3/13/2011. Yellow cake lemon filling buttercream icing = YUM. Finally, we planned a weekend to do NOTHING, which may have been the best weekend of all. Anyway. I have no particula...
