What better day to take stock than Thanksgiving? This list is from the Meet Me At Mike’s blog! Hope everyone is having a crazy, love-filled, magical holiday weekend! Making: scarves for the homeless. 7 down, 8 to go. Cooking : mashed potatoes in the crock pot for the first time. Drinking : coffee with a little…
I am pre-tty sure I’ve tried every mascara on the market. Drug store, name brand, anything that is sold at Target. I’ve been wearing black goop on my lashes religiously since I was 14 and I’ve never even found a brand that I like enough to be loyal to. The one that has come closest…
If I have to hear that Of Mice & Men song on the radio one more time… I swear. And while we are at it, why are we OK with the existence of Avicii?? Let’s work on our music standards. I’m lookin at you KROQ. Is there anything more disheartening than when you find out your favorite…
When I’m mentally preparing for a day at Disneyland, I have to put on my “game face”. Which is probably not what you think. It’s actually me trying to make an extra effort to be kind and courteous to the other people in the park. Because there are really some douche-bags there. I mean really.…
Dear roofers, sorry I was THAT lady who came out and yelled at you for being too noisy. I know you just had a job to do, but 4 days of interrupted naps made for a very cranky household. Someone had to be blamed! And it might as well be you. Best, Crazy Mom. Sometimes…
Went for a walk with my lovely neighbor/fellow mom the other day and offered her quite a bit of useless parenting advice – because we all love that – when all of a sudden, Stevie jumps/falls out of his stroller. Scraped his knee and everything. Didn’t I buckle him in? Well, no. Pass the trophy…
Only 2 loads of laundry this week (!!!) If one of them hadn’t been barf stuff, I probably would’ve felt like I won the lottery! Yesterday I was totally carb-loading. “Oh, for a major run?” you might think. Nope. Just because I was home all day. Not how I imagined I would spend a day at…
This is my annoyance of the week, found on Pinterest. Perhaps I spend too much time there. But THIS!!! I mean painting a bathing suit on Barbie with nail polish or sharpies so that she is modest. Really?! I am all for modesty. I am a modest person. But is our society that prude that…
As this Fall is finally feeling like Fall (for the time being), the only thing I’m really interested in wearing is sweatshirts. Comfy jeans and cozy sweatshirts. Just saying it out loud makes me feel like getting a hot cocoa to go along with it. I know it sounds like I’ve given up on fashion all…
When I was 14 years old, the only thing I wanted in the whole wide world was a pair of black 8-eye Dr. Marten boots. With most other clothes and shoes at the time, I was perfectly satisfied with a knock-off brand. But these Docs had to be the real deal. That AirWair tag hanging…
