Thanks to a very patient cousin (who spent his Sunday evening converting this video from television to computer instead of 12,000 much more exciting activities), I have procured Friday’s Rachael Ray segment for your viewing pleasure. A couple of notes regarding the segment. 1. This was filmed over a year ago. My “20-month-old toddler” is [...]
I’m pretty sure including a 9-year-old movie in a Mamapop guest post covering my CURRENT pop culture obsessions makes me incredibly lame, but here you go. Cooper, you’re an amazing dancer and you’re a great choreographer, but as a boyfriend… you kinda suck.
Well, it’s time to re-pack my bags and head out to Palm Springs for sun, swimming and a little relaxation. When I mentioned to Wito that we were leaving for Palm Springs to see his beloved great-grandparents, he dashed out of the room and returned looking like this: I think he is more excited than [...]
1. Put the salad croutons in the refrigerator and the opened salad dressing in the pantry. 2. Filled a sippy cup per Wito’s request, but handed him a pack of swim diapers instead. The sippy cup could be anywhere at this point. 3. Received an email requesting my Brita FFG post that was due LAST [...]
My mother and I took Wito on a couple of errands this morning. First up, Target, which launched my first completely insignificant tirade of the day. What is the point of having shopping cart return corrals (“corrals” doesn’t seem right, but very Oklahoman, yes?) if there aren’t any carts left outside in the corrals for [...]
1. I deflowered my 7-year-old virginal hair with highlights yesterday! 2. I am in love with a new, organic pressed powder. (It’s a DRUGSTORE brand, holla! I found it at Ulta, which upon walking into the store realized I had a $5 coupon back at my house so I turned around and drove back to [...]
It’s Earth Day, dudes! I thought it would apropos to write about being kinder to our planet. (Oh, wait. I do that EVERY week over here. Oh hahahahaha, silly me.) Yeah, yeah. Okay, here’s the deal. Blake, a fellow FilterForGood writer, tagged me to participate in an Earth Day meme. (Before I go on, have [...]
1. It doesn’t matter what the circumstance, I could be tortured by Jack Bauer with no sleep for a week and STILL not be able to sleep on an airplane or in a car. 2. I have never owned a pet, nor do I care to in the future. 3. In my mid-20′s, I was [...]
1. It’s not all tofu and hemp over here. I’ve finally admitted to my paper towel addiction. 2. If you have an iPhone, you have to check out these apps for parents. (Your iPhone can act as a baby monitor! That calls you at your number of choice when it detects sound! DUDE.) 3. Plus-sized [...]
1. I’m writing a weekly column that I really, really, REALLY love. The fine folks at Brita have started the Filter For Good challenge, which has already eliminated over 100 million plastic water bottles to date. (You should take the pledge yourself!) Along with 5 other bloggers, I will be posting once a week (on [...]
We’re leaving tomorrow morning for a week’s vacation in the home of one of D’s clients. I haven’t prepared one bit. I haven’t packed, I haven’t created a single list (serious travesty), I haven’t thought about what I’m going to wear (we are vacationing WITH D’s clients, which means I have to be Whoorl 2.0: [...]
Do you know Joslyn over at Simple Lovely? She’s pretty fantastic, if I do say so myself. Joslyn and I met at Blogher in San Francisco when she paid me a compliment on my grey purse. (By the way, I know the correct American spelling of grey is “gray”, but I’d prefer to be British [...]
1. Enter Mother’s Market. Spend upwards of twenty minutes aimlessly walking around the store, feigning interest in various items while, in reality, you are too shy to ask the cute dude with dreads about the Neti Pot. 2. Locate a very tall Swedish man with a skinny plumber’s butt and ask for assistance locating the [...]
Wito and I are both experiencing unbelievably hellish summer colds on this lovely Wednesday. How did this happen? I was minding my own business, rocking the Wii Fit Super Hula at 1pm yesterday, when BAM! Snot explosion! Head cold from hell! THINGS I NEED TO ACCOMPLISH TODAY: 1. Grocery shopping and errands this morning while [...]
1. The donations for little Emily have been staggering. Staggering. I’m so happy to be a part of such an unbelievably generous outpouring of support for sweet Emily. 2. Speaking of generous, Kate Szabone, the maker of the fabulous earrings I featured here last week, emailed me yesterday to let me know that she is [...]
