When I asked my kids for ideas for this month's Write-Away Contest theme I got some interesting responses: "Squanto," "mashed potatoes," "bowling" or my personal favorite, "Our Scottish heritage" (that came from my nine year-old). Where he came up with that one I'll never know. Personally I don't ha ...

I met Stephanie Precourt at BlogHer this summer and she's someone who can instantly make you feel comfortable with her friendly cheerfulness. Even with over eight months of pregnancy under her belt she looked great and was so fun to be around. Married to her husband Jeff, she is mother to three boys ...

I want to thank our sponsor, The Company Store, without whom there would be no Fabulous Prize--otherwise known as a $50 gift certificate to their site. If it were me I know I'd be stocking up on Halloween decorations! The weather is getting colder and if blankets and comforters and things to keep yo ...

I'm excited about this month's contest for three reasons: a great topic, a great judge and a GREAT prize. First, the topic for this month is "Ghosts" and as usual you can take it many different directions (I kind of plan it that way). I suppose I came to the topic after recently remembering a short ...

This month's contest was judged by the very kind and charming Marybeth Whalen from Cheaper by the Half Dozen--a blogger that I've only recently come to know through her own entries in previous contests and who has been so kind to volunteer her time that I'm now officially in her debt. A southerner w ...

It wasn't until Tracy from Dandelion Mama sent me her picks for the Write-Away Contest that I had a chance to check in with her and learn of the tragedy that hit her family that weekend. I've ached for her--their family has had a tough year--and I don't know that there is much I could say to show ho ...

Tomorrow is the first day of school here. You know what that means? It means I can actually go back to blogging around here. And it also means I'm going to miss the kids (I'm not entirely heartless you know). Thank you to everyone this month who participated (there were 52 of you) each time I get an ...

Back by popular demand, this month's Write-Away Contest will be a peach because once again Andrew came up a great topic. That man ought to start charging for his talents I tell you--that's three times now he's come up with good themes for my contests. I'm so glad I married him. So what is this most ...
