One of my readers, a new mother, requested a post about getting things down with a newborn in the house. My recollection of how I managed with a newborn is a little hazy now, what with Really LIttle Man being a big ol’ 20-monther. But in honor of today, my due date, I thought it … Continue reading »
I would love to say that I have these all the time, but I don’t. Whenever I do have one, it intrigues me. For instance, tonight, Really Little Man was acting lethargic and generally tired. Since he has a bit of a cold, was just playing hard outside, and woke up early this morning, I … Continue reading »
If you look in the children’s section of the library, you’re likely to find a number of “ABC’s of” books on myriad topics. If this post were a book, I would probably include it in the adult non-fiction section. I don’t think the kids would appreciate it very much. But maybe they would. I was … Continue reading »

Today’s post is the twelfth in the Women Who Inspire Us Series. You can read the previous posts here. You may also want to subscribe … Continue reading »

Every now and then, I get a chance to collaborate with some of them, or at least get interviewed. :) I am so happy to be over at Miriyummy today. As you can probably guess from the name … Continue reading »

A couple years ago, we went to my in-laws for the first days and came back chol hamoed, hosting my in-laws for the second half of Yom Tov (they are easy guests AND helped cook, so it was actually pretty fantastic). I don’t recommend … Continue reading »

If you’re here visiting from Renee’s blog, welcome! If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading Renee’s always interesting and entertaining blog, hop on over and … Continue reading »
I am so thrilled to have my friend (IRL), band sistah, fellow blogger, and someone who I just all-around look up to, Ruchi Koval, guest posting today. Ruchi has a fabulous blog, Out of the Ortho Box, that I highly recommend you go and check out. It’s one of the only places I’ve seen on … Continue reading »
It’s starting to feel like crunch time over here (and I’m not talking about all that matzah we will soon be eating). It’s that time when I’m no longer purchasing chometz. I’m getting creative with my dinner ideas, using up whatever is hanging around my pantry (and still edible). And, of course, I’m cleaning and … Continue reading »
It’s been a little while since I’ve had the pleasure of sharing an inspiring woman post, so I’m very, very, verrrrrrry happy to share today’s post from my friend and (relatively) new mommy, Nikki Flores a/k/a Clueless Me. Nikki has guest posted on my blog before about her mishaps in taking care of her husband’s … Continue reading »
