My husband does all of our meal planning, shopping & cooking & I love seeing a man's baking efforts highlighted here. That cake has me drooling & book marking this recipe!

I'm really, really sorry you were treated so badly :( Providing skilled IT help can be difficult to do well to begin with, having abuse heaped on you? that stinks! I wasn't perfect, I sometimes panicked & did the deer in headlights thing when people recognized me. What I tried to remember though was that please, thank you & excuse me were the words that should be used the most throughout the weekend. I still came home with bruises from being elbowed & shoved :(

I am so very sorry for your loss ..

my god, that is the most beautiful picture I've seen in days! You are soo talented!

oh my God, I love you seriously but I have to admit to being totally green with envy here! Your description of your tub room time sounds like heaven and the Nap room? you went to a place that has a nap room? that's it, I 'm hooked :)

I'm the Shoppinqueen, thank you for including me on this list! I've had 23 yrs of being told to shut up, I'm not shutting down now! I'm going to go thru, read, comment on the posts here over the next few days. I'd do it tonight but 5:30am comes really early& I want to be fully awake& present as I read important posts.

ROTFLMAO!no more reading before having coffee in the morning,I thought this post was going to be about tummy tucks,you got me good here! :)

Problem is people are human,who do you know that does things with totally altruistic motives 100% of the time?As far as douches go,I'd say just try to pick folks who's core values most closely match your own, Social media pro X might be an insufferable attention whore at times but if he constantly champions causes I consider important, it might well be worth to me to feed his need for ego strokes.

My current addiction is Youtube, I've also got a folder full of sites I've bookmarked to visit on #socialsat

You are such a lovely, warm, funny woman, wasn't the meal with @taverndirect amazing?

ROTFLMAO great pictures!

Your son is a little rock star, such a cutie:)

Nice post, I'm just focusing on gratitude, a weekend away at a nice hotel in NYC with lots of other folks who share similar passions and I don't have to cook or wash dishes, it works for me:)
