To Junie B. or not to Junie B.?
Is Junie B. Jones Talking Trash?By ANNA JANE GROSSMANPublished: July 26, 2007The New York Times I guess I’m not the only one who had a strong negative reaction to these books. In a house where I need to encourage my child to stop reading, I don’t have much patience for these books…
Have you met my friend Tom?
(For those of you on MySpace, no, no that Tom). I have a new friend Tom. As I get to know him better, I think he will become a great guide for me on my journeys in life. His real name is TomTom One XL, and he speaks with a very soothing British accent (well,
Favorites
As must be quite obvious, I love to take photos. Mostly of the girls, but also of flowers and other things that catch my eye. I will try to add a new photo to the Favorites Album each day, whether it be a new one or an old one!
I’m Done
after staying up VERY late and then reading all morning, I’m done. Now no one can spoil the ending for me; I’ll try not to spoil it for anyone else….

Illusions of Grandeur
The latest “Woman-to-Woman” column “Harm in reading romance novels?” got me thinking about illusions versus reality.

In the end of the column, the suggestion made was to remember that novels are fiction, not reality.
Random Bits
After 3 months of no mobile blogging, I am finally able to email photos from my phone to my blog. I don’t think Google actually fixed the problem, but the merger of AT&T and Cingular gave my phone a new email address, tricking Google into thinking it was a new user? My light summer reading

National Ice Cream Month To celebrate, we had an ice cream party at our house today. Earlier this week, the girls and I went to Target and bought an ice cream machine. In many ways, it looks like the one I had as a kid (my mom still has it), with one major difference. Not
