at risk of sounding like a complete dork, your pictures have made my morning. i think chickens are awesome, and i have been dying to start a flock. sadly, my apartment complex management company does not share my love of our feathered friends, so it is just going to have to wait til we move! your broody hen is one of…

it's not at all what you asked, but i thought i'd throw my $0.02 in, anyway. i hated nursing bras. they never worked well for me. i wore either an unlined cotton underwire bra (stretchy cups. just simply pull down and tuck under the breast.) or a tank top with built-in shelf bra. also, i loved the Lansinoh breast…

thanks! i had at least 2 in cribs and 2 or 3 in diapers for YEARS. i was all about the short cuts!

i had 4 babies in 6 years and we had so. much. baby stuff. it was a little ridiculous. i'd suggest a bouncy seat OR a swing, a playpen OR a bassinet, and an infant carrier carseat (if you have a peaceful baby, you might not need either the swing or bouncy seat, the carrier will be fine. it even works for feeding, once…

Ponyo is my favourite, closely followed by My Neighbour Totoro, and then Kiki's Delivery Service.

our apartment complex had a Cinco de Mayo party and everybody brought something. my contribution was homemade cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. i brought home an empty container, so i guess they were a hit!

awww, i have a really cute mullet-hem dress, though! it's a strapless, black crinkle-cotton with multi coloured stripes on the bodice. it's comfy. i can play pool without being afraid that i'm showing more than i want to by bending over the table!

wait... i thought it was only in dark dyes and cheap (quality-wise) henna stuff. if you don't dye or henna, how hard is it to avoid?

the mind... it boggles. the cheeks... they clench!

i know this is an old post, but... wtf are those things?

in regards to your last sentence, i believe there are some kids on your lawn...

i've had some great ones, but i think the best was when i was 5 months pregnant with my 3rd, and i woke up to find my boyfriend AND HIS WIFE in my house, collecting his things. you know, the wife that i had been assured was an ex-wife? oh, yeah. never heard from him again, either. not exactly a huge loss in the long…

ouch. yeah, that sounds like a mess no matter which way you slice it. fwiw, i think you did the right thing.

ha! nice.

a dear friend recently named his daughter Nevaeh. i love him, and i love the kid, but her name makes me cringe.

personally, the term "grey rape" makes a lot of sense to me. i don't know about in this situation (i was not there and there is so much back and forth, and conflicting stories, i'm not even sure what happened or how to feel about it, but obviously, if there was a mouth on his dick and he didn't want it there, there's…

a cup of strong, sweet tea, and a lukewarm bath with only a candle or a nightlight on, followed by as much sleep as possible. when i get migraines, i literally can't open my eyes if there is more than the faintest light. i've had to be physically led around because i'm essentially blind when they hit.

i love the Lion Brand Homespun yarn, but i mostly buy baby yarn. it's finer and much softer than regular ol' Red Heart. i do use a lot of the Red Heart, too, because it's cheap. it gets softer after you wash it a few times. i mostly crochet blankets and scarves, i'm great with straight lines, not so much with fancy…

yeah, my boyfriend made his with ground pork and peaches, and a lot of people were hesitant to even try it. there was a lot of "you put WHAT in here?!" lol. i've always liked beans in my chili, though, with or without meat.

mmm... i love pumpkin soup! that sounds really good.
