Thursday's Triumph
Friday, August 30, 2013 3 comments I am proud of myself today. I went to Central Market - CENTRAL MARKET - and didn't buy a single dessert. Nothing from the pastries, no ice cream, pre-made delicious desserts, NOTHING. Yay! I think I'll have some homemade cookies to celeb... Read more
Tuesday's terrible cake
Wednesday, August 21, 2013 1 comments I have been trying to do a little baking for my kids recently, partly because, since Cecily is no longer struggling through 'push week,' I have a little more free time, and partly because both college kids will be leaving soon for their respecti... Read more
Random happenings, mostly good things

Tuesday's Tiredness
