I finally got around to uploading the videos from PB (Pickleboy's) preschool Christmas concert at his school, and I wanted to share them with you. Here they are singing jingle bells.  PB is wearing the blue and yellow shirt next to Miss Vichie, one of his teachers. The kids are singing Santa Claus is Coming to Town.  The words are a bit...

Each and every year you hear the stories. Someone is getting robbed. This year is no different. In the past week on the news I've heard countless tales, the latest being an Irish family who immigrated to Canada this past year were the victims of a break and enter.

I remember her from Uptown Girls starring with Dakota Fanning. She played a bar maid, town girl gone bad in Summer Catch with Freddie Prince Jr. She starred opposite Eminem in 8 mile and every time you watched Brittany Murphy you couldn't keep your eyes off her.

With Christmas just around the corner I always find it interesting when you learn new things about a company, especially if it's one of the BIG BOX stores like Best Buy. I get tons of things in my email all the time. I love it because there is so much stuff out there and you really do learn something new every day. I have never purchased anything...

It's three more sleeps until Christmas and I'm just now starting to get excited. I know sad--but true. We've been so busy the past several weeks with hockey for Gamerboy; it's been hard to keep the days straight for me.

One thing everyone looks forward to at Christmas, at least in our house is when mom bakes.

One of my favorites are CHOCOLATE MACAROONS or "HOT RODS" as mom calls them. She got the recipe from her mom (my Nana) and...

TGIF!!! And boy am I glad it's here. I've been up since 4 am because pickle boy wouldn't go to sleep and didn't end up going to sleep until close to 3 in the morning. He kept having night terrors. Always fun. I did get some great news. Actually it was an early Christmas Present from a friend (not to be named) a video camera so I can record life...
