Schools send home so much paper! #Recycle Me!
Kylie was all excited when we moved to this school district, because rather than textbooks, they district issues laptops loaded curriculum in the form of documents. That's cool, because if you're not issuing text books, you're actually saving trees and water, right? Says the mother who only has kids in middle school and above! The other schools send home so much paper! I feel like the amount of paper saved in the higher level grades is being sent home, 10 fold, from the elementary and kindergarten schools! Holy Paperwork, Batman. Seriously, We've never had so many papers sitting around our house at one…
Why didn’t you rinse the cloth diaper first? #clothdiapers
*Warning* This post talks about baby poop. Why didn't you rinse the cloth diaper first? Yesterday, after our Kids Beach Club preparation, I stopped by my mom's house. Jett pooped, and I just kinda rolled his diaper up, put it in the wetbag, and put a clean diaper on him. I didn't really think anything about it, because I do this all the time. It's my routine when I'm out and about. Today, when I took him to her house so that I could go get my hair cut, I noticed that when I got him out of the car…

Cuisinart Cutting Board Knife Groupon $22 – FREE SHIPPING
I was taking a look at all the great deals available, this morning like I always do, and I ran across this Cuisinart Cutting Board Knife Groupon. Although I do not have the Cuisinart brand, I have both a bamboo cutting board and a ceramic knife and I love them. What I really like about the knife is that it doesn't dull and it doesn't chip! My other knives, I find that because they are stainless, they get dull easily, and they also get pitted over time. I don't have to worry about that with my ceramic knife. I love…
I was asked to interview Katie Couric. One problem. I am not a journalist! | #katieshow #celebrity
If you haven't, check out my Introduction to the Katie Couric Interview Series. I'm not a journalist. I'm a mom. I'm a blogger. I don't really report the news, I promote it. I would imagine that's why I received a call (to my surprise), last week, from Disney. The call came through on my home phone from an "Anonymous" number, and I almost didn't answer it. I was cooking dinner while holding Jett, and of course, he was trying to bend over to get into my shirt because he was hungry. Braxton and Hawk were fighting over their Xbox game, or…
