A few days ago I had a sudden urge to buy something. An item that I not only don’t need but can’t see myself needing it anytime soon (no it isn’t anything dirty…. Get your minds out of the gutter.) The urge to make this particular purchase was so great that I actually told my…

Spanish Word of the Week: Even
This week’s word is one that can be confused when it used with an accent mark. Aun ah-oon’ (adverb) which means even is a great word to know. However you must remember not to mistake “aun” for “aún”! With an accent mark, “aún” means “still.” Just remember that when it means “still,” “aún” has an…
Monday’s Menu {5/12/13}
So it is me and the twins the next couple of weeks so you are going to a huge chance in my meals. The twins eat baby food so they are taken care of. I will just be cooking for myself and I don’t always eat three meals a day. So I should apologize in…

The Strength of Sarah
In the book of Genesis Sarah tells Abraham to sleep with Hagar so he may have a son. I am telling you now that I just don’t think I could have had that sort of strength. I know I wouldn’t have. Can you just imagine that?
Fantasy Friday: Mexico City
You all know that two of my children were born in Mexico and my husband is of course from Mexico as well. So this week I thought I would list Mexico City as my Fantasy Friday. I have never been there and to be honest I really would love to visit the place that half…
3 Weeks
The end of last year I told myself that this year would be better. It started out full of hope and there was a moment or two when things looked up. The truth is most of this year so far has been a struggle. So much for better.
