A rant and a delicious countdown

I’d like to issue a a warning to my male readers: I am about to talk shop about my pregnancy. Be warned or just skip to the food photos down below at any time if you feel faint. So after 17 weeks of nausea (as I wrote in the past, morning sickness is a term invented by a [...]

Anti-Stress Recipe

I finally did it. I packed my bags and left. For a week. All alone. No husband. No kids. No laundry. If you ignore the fact that my husband practically kicked me out and my friend Val kidnapped me kicking and screaming from the sidewalk, you can actually be proud of me. I slept as [...]

I’m a sucker for him

Our relationship is not what you may call fair. You can be sure that I am the one putting in all the effort. I cook for him, I clean his cloths. I comfort him when he has a bad day and am always the one to come up with new things to do together. He never [...]

We have a life

You guessed it. This nearly two weeks long silence was due to yet another family travel. We are crazy like that. Actually, the FAMILY was not supposed to travel anywhere. My hardworking husband, which remains a geek reguardless of how great he looks in his jeans, was sent to the big city for a week long business [...]

I am happy to report that we have braved the journey back [...]

A hard day's night

Tonight I set out to blow off some steam. To write about my achy back, my sink full of dishes, my messy toy choked living room and the still packed suitcase that decorates our bedroom floor, commiserating with my husband’s forgotten dirty socks. I wanted to complain about the lack of time for myself, the great posts that come and [...]

Enough already

I ain’t really here. Just past some of the night in a real bed while Grandma took charge for a few hours. I hang out at a hospital now, with a 2-year-old pneumonia patient, going out every 3 hours to breast feed in a car. Not fun. I begin to wonder if the big guy has it [...]
