Well, this is a pleasant surprise. Candace Cameron Bure is starring in Truth Be Told, the latest movie for Family Movie Night! That’s so very cool! Family Movie Night is a special mission from the folks at WalMart and P&G to bring more family-friendly movies to television (yay!). I’ve mentioned some of the movies before, [...]

Are you ready, folks?! Monday hits the Northern Hemisphere once again! And this time, it’s a little different– SPRING is upon us! Sunday night at 7:20pm or so, to be exact. And I am so glad to see it come. Questions: 1. What jewelry do you wear 24/7? None! Not even my wedding ring. Sad, [...]

Well, we are FINALLY crawling our way toward THINKING about a decision to get a new car. In case you didn’t know, we have an ailing Dodge Caravan minivan. I loved that van, but it was used as a postal vehicle for a while (Hubs is a rural carrier, and up until a few months [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine. I know! I know! I’ve been putting it off for several years! Yesterday, I promised my kids that we WILL go on a vacation this year. We WILL. I must make sure I keep this promise. [...]

Netflix kept “recommending” this movie called The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry, based on other movies I liked. The cover of the DVD didn’t catch my eye at first. It has a photo of a smiling old guy (Gavin McLeod) with a bunch of boys. Maybe it was a movie about fishing or skateboarding. *yawn* I [...]

I was perusing some travel sites of late (the only travel I’ve been doing these days), and someone asked that question. Hmmm. :thinky: choices, choices. If money was no object, I’d go to Greece. I LOVE LOVE Greek food. I would go there for the food and the glorious scenery. The perfect vacation would be [...]

Holy cow. LITERALLY, hahahah!!! :blink: OK I calm down now. This story at Boston.com is both tragic and befuddling. (I’d copy and paste a section of the news story, but I don’t want to get sued for doing so– so you’ll have to go see for yourself). In a nutshell, a family in New Hampshire [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Victorinox Swiss Army. All opinions are 100% mine. I love time. I love organization. I love timepieces. I am a FIEND when it comes to clocks, I LOVE clocks. When I finally get my kitchen renovated, I am going to get one of those [...]

FINALLY! Have I ever told you I just love the words “family-friendly”?! We like to eat dinner together, and watch a movie together, most of the time. Usually the films are documentaries (like The Case for Christ) but the kids sometimes want an action movie (and we’ve already seen The Incredibles a billion times). It’s [...]

There is some awe in knowing someone who has written a book. It’s such a monumental task, as well as an expensive one! I looked into the publishing market several years ago. Back then, it was advised that I read the encyclopedic-sized A Writer’s Market, find (and pay for) an agent, write multitudes of letters [...]
