Kate’s Escapades -Be careful what you prank about!
It could come back to bite you in the butt!
PrintTomorrow is a BIG holiday for me. Are you now racking your brain with thoughts of “Wait a minute! Tomorrow is a holiday? What did I forget? Did Easter sneak up on me? Am I totally unprepared with the you-know -what from the you-know-who?” Rest at ease. It’s not a big holiday to most of the mature adult world…just me and a few other crazies who save up their usually well hidden, immature instincts for … Read entire article »

Kate’s Escapades – Holi Festival of Colors
Print To check out Kate’s Adventure to this year’s Holi Festival of Colors go HERE and HERE! Quick! When I say the words “Hare Krishna” what is the first thing that comes to mind? If you thought men with shaved heads and women with long wavy hair, chanting, wearing white robes, and selling flowers at the airport, you’d be echoing my first thoughts. (You’d also be aging yourself, but that’s entirely another subject for another day.) This is … Read entire article »

Liz’s rant: The red pen
PrintFor a couple of years now, I’ve heard much discussion over the use of the now-notorious red pen. Once a staple for every school teacher, it seems this sword of sorts wields power unknown prior to the late 90s. Oh, sure. It may look innocent enough, but there are those who claim that seeing red ink can cause irreparable damage in children’s psyches, by shooting down their self-esteem, causing them to feel inferior and crushing … Read entire article »

LOST 6.8 – Recon recap by Evie
PrintLOST 6.8 : Recon On the island This episode starts out on the beach where Jin tells Sawyer they gotta go before Evil-Locke (whom I’m now going to refer to as Fake Locke, because I am still wondering if the writers are going to throw in a twist, and Jacob is really going to end up being the bad guy) gets back, but Jin can’t believe Sawyer is “with” Locke. (Sawyer later tells Kate he’s not “with” … Read entire article »

Kate’s Escapades – Spring-time Tie Dye Cupcakes
PrintThis weekend I attempted to make rainbow cupcakes for my sister-in-law’s birthday. You’ll notice the word “attempted”, which in itself implies that I was not successful. I followed the instructions to a “T”, but somewhere between the directions and the end result, my rainbow layers turned into random tie dye designs. I’ll admit that the Martha Stewart in me was tempted to just run the recipe as if I had intended for them to be … Read entire article »

Liz’s rant: Showdown in the spice aisle
PrintMy neighbor’s recent Facebook status caught my attention immediately: So, I just confronted a crack head at Kroger. What has gotten into me? Nothing like a status update to make your head spin. I couldn’t wait to text her and get the full story, and I was betting it was going to be good. It was so good, in fact, that she insisted on telling me in person, so as to bring the real flavor of … Read entire article »
