Can you spot the moment that makes me tear up every time? Continue reading

When Easter Recipes Go Wrong
Being the good Catholic I am, my favorite Easter tradition is the satisfactory decapitation of a chocolate bunny – savoring the severed ears before reaching the hollow portion of the melty rabbit.
Being the adoring mother that I am, I had a strong desire to pass this tradition down to my children. I hopped (pun intended) right online, poised to order a selection of milk chocolate cottontails from See’s. Horror of horrors, they were sold out of the glowing golden aluminum-wrapped treats.

TechMom Tuesday: Santa’s Coming!
I write a monthly column over at AlliOSNews. It’s a techie site – extolling all the goodies and gunpowder on the Apple OS. (SHINY TOY!) I’m TechMom. And these are my stories on how technology is really used. This is what you must deal with, as I am a Silicon Valley nerd by day.
I’m well aware it’s Monday. TechMom Tuesday is typically published the first Tuesday of every month, except for this month when there were TWO (this being the second Tuesday title of the month). I reserve the right to rant more or less as the technical goings-on, well…go on. It’s only fitting – Santa’s coming!) Continue reading

I’m well aware it’s Wednesday. TechMom Tuesday is typically published the first Tuesday of every month, except for this month when it was posted on the second Thursday (still under the Tuesday title). I reserve the right to rant more or less as the technical goings-on, well…go on.) Continue reading
Apple Cake Good Enough for the Pope (Happy Thanksgiving)
What it’s supposed to look like
Over the river 210 freeway and through the woods, to grandmother’s house we went. The muppets and I ventured to Lake Arrowhead in the San Bernardino Mountains for Thanksgiving this year. Continue reading

Thanksgiving Holiday
May you have a holiday filled with some fun and not to much work.
Thanks for being a part of my little world. And reading my stream of conscious musings.

Happy Halloween: Disguises through the years
Another year, another adorable terrible twosome.
In need of power, no longer through the screams of a child, but through the bouncing-off-the-wall energy of 3-year-olds who have discovered that by going to door and simply looking adorable, neighbors will willingly hand over candy.
In the words of Destroy (after canvassing the street in search of porch lights), “I need to go home now. I need to go to my house and eat all the candy in my pumpkin.” Continue reading
