My daughter, Kimberly, showed me a really interesting foodie website today that just launched called FoodConnect.com.
(Just when I thought I got the hang of Facebook, here’s yet another social networking site…LOL)
I checked it out and even I found it easy to navigate…You can look through numerous recipes that sound “to-die-for”…
(The Balsamic Roast Beef recipe looks unbelievable!)
…not to mention the restaurant reviews from all over the globe…So, when you’re traveling, you don’t have to necessarily take a chance on eating at a restaurant that you won’t enjoy, or at least know what you’re getting into…

My daughter, Lisa, and I went to take our dogs to the dog groomer the other day and we had 5 dogs in the car (between my dogs and Kim‘s).
We dropped them off and were on our way to do a little bit of shopping and run some errands. We got 5 minutes down the street and my car broke down…it said – Shut Engine Off Immediately!
Apparently, I have a problem with an oil pressure valve or something like that.
Thank goodness it didn’t happen before

I just love fall weddings…
The leaves are changing, it’s sunny, but cool and everything starts to bring us together as families – with Thanksgiving and Christmas around the corner.
Brides choose such lovely bridesmaid dresses in awesome autumn colours. One of my daugthers got married in October and chose a fabulously lush cherry red for her bridesmaid dresses – so stunning!
The most stressful thing for a bride is finding Cheap Wedding Dresses with Latest Styles.
Now, I found a website today, zmnm.com (not sure what that stands for, but anyway)…
They specialize in the newest wedding dress styles on the market, [ ... ]

You simply can’t resist saying, “Awwwww” or “Coochie Coochie Coo” to a cute baby, can you?
You might just stare at their beautiful innocence, perfect skin and cute, chubby hands…
The same goes for this bank robber, caught because he was playing with the baby…LOL – Check out this video:
Really? LOL…He needs to pay attention! LOL…LOL…LOL…
You just can’t

My daughter wrote a post about Well Equipped Teams Looking Intimidating on one of their blogs, ChampionshipCircle.com …
…and I know why…
When my husband and I coached one of her softball teams when she was a tween, unlike previous or later coaches, we made sure the girls were decked out! They were the St. Catharines Crystals!
They had a choice of 4 uniforms, 2 colors of jackets, bags, 3 cool embroidered hats, cool socks and stirrups and anything else we could get our hands on.
Afterall, parents, your kids only get to be kids once – they only get to live [ ... ]

I don’t know about you, but in our family a dirty pair of running shoes is a serious fashion faux-pas – a pet peeve, if you will.
There is nothing like a nice, clean, white pair of running shoes! This is kind of how we feel about clean sneakers – Check out this funny Foot Locker video:
…And there’s no reason your running shoes shoud be dirty when you can clean them so easily!

Christmastime is coming and I love to decorate for Christmas – Decking the Halls, so to speak!
I love trimming the tree with gorgeous, Victorian-style ornaments in all pink, of course.
I put candle lights in every window and get out my Nativity Sets.
A few years back, my son-in-law and daughter picked out one of the most beautiful nativities I’ve seen and I proudly display it on my sideboard in the diningroom for Christmas.
I have two lighted reindeers that move for outide, but what I would really love now is a Nativity Scene for my front lawn.

My daughter and I were watching Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew on television a few months ago.
This show really made an impression on me. It’s so sad to see people, anyone, hurting so badly that they feel drugs are their only “way out”, their only companion.
If it can happen to celebrities with fame and fortune, it can certainly happen to anyone. Money and fame don’t buy happiness.
I saw a website online when I was surfing today called TheDrugRehab.com. It made me think of this show we watched and it’s great to see that there are places to reach out to [ ... ]

My daughter showed me this video today.
So many thoughts go through your head watching this video…
I wanted to post this video because every child deserves a mother and a father – it took 2 to make this child.
I’m not condemning, or picking on anyone – this situation “is what it is”.
This Danish woman is very courageous because I’m sure she is embarrassed and upset at what people will think. She’s willing to tell the world what happened and is willing to sacrfice her pride for the love of her child.
If you have any information about this situation, email [ ... ]
