The Original Drama Mama

I really need to stay away from the internets…I keep finding new ways to devour time…time I should be spending working out, or dusting a ceiling fan. Tonight, while I was looking for some tutorials on making pictorial montages, I came across this site. Oh my, it was like a toy store…so many things to [...]

Guess what movie Miss A saw recently?

This is of course, a question I ask myself often…as I tend to buy way too much of certain items (in fact, I’ve made a list of the top 10 products I purchase to the point of ridiculousness)…but I am rather let’s say frugal, and will often second guess a purchase I am about to [...]

I may be a tad biased; being the mother of the incredible super awesomeness that is my offspring, but I think it’s pretty fair to say that Lil’ G has the most amazing, stop you in your tracks, blue eyes. And for the record, while it’s agreed I may be biased on the sheer awesomeness [...]

This morning while  Miss A was at her gymnastics class and Lil G’ was napping I decided to do some surfin’ on the internets. A chase-a-link-athon brought me to a nice little site about organization. Sifting through, I found an idea I know I have to try. She calls it “pizza box storage.” And that’s [...]

“Poor Man’s?!?” You might be saying…but at around $89, Nintendo’s Wii Fit system costs less than one session with a living breathing personal trainer. (Assuming of course, you already own the Wii system). I had added the Wii Fit to my wish list thinking, it might be cool to try and I am seriously in [...]

Don’t leave your baby to play alone for a few minutes in their room while you prepare their bath. Even if the room is “babyproof.” Even if all breakables, small objects/choking hazards/ and possible toxins are out of reach. Even if you are just  a few feet away in the adjoining bathroom. Even if it’s [...]

I admit it, I’m a magazine junkie. Back in the day when my heart went pitter-pat for NKOTB (see #53)I would spend wads of babysitting money on TeenBeat, TuttiFrutti, Bop and other glossy homages to the teen idols I so adored. I would pull out the posters to adorn my walls, cut out special articles [...]

Just Ask Lil’ G, who tosses them with aplomb as if playing fetch with some imaginary canine. Or ask Lil’ G’s Dada…who, after observing this behavior a few times decided to investigate…and upon tasting said biscuit declared, “Ugh! These things taste like dog treats!” How he knows what dog treats taste like is something I [...]
