I wanted salad. I didn't have any lettuce. Unlike the time I didn't have any bread but craved garlic bread, this time I was loaded to the gills with bread. So I used it in my salad instead of lettuce. And then I cried tears of joy. Turns out bread... Continue reading

When I was a kid, I thought I would be dead before the age of 27. That seemed to be the magical age that I never thought I would get past. I don't know why I picked 27. Maybe it was because of Jim Morrison's death at age 27. He... Continue reading

Oh, I love that neti pot, too! Although I still can't figure out how to get all the water out of my nose completely. I always end up leaking about an hour later. haha!!
It is pretty gross at first, I'm not gonna lie. But after sticking with it for a couple days it just seems normal now. :-) Give it a whirl!
Hahah! Exactly, Nicole! And as an added bonus, you can cough up some funky stuff, too! hahah!
I totally multi-task! I get the kids' breakfast and make sure their bookbags are ready for school. The first couple times it felt like forever, now I'm so used to it it goes quickly. Plus, it sometimes doesn't take a full 15 minutes. You can actually feel the oil change consistency and know when you can be done after a while. :-)
