Laissez le bon temps rouler! If you’re very observant you may notice that this is the same picture I shared last Mardi Gras. After a busy afternoon making potato salad, jambalaya and beignets, and sharing this meal with my parents, I decided to cheat. Maybe I’ll take a picture tomorrow. Or maybe not. Anyway, as…
Domestic Diva – Monday Tasks and Stormy Weather
Do you have a housekeeping schedule? I used to but in the past few years it’s become more of a general routine – a very, very loose routine – than a schedule. As I’ve written here before, I’d like to develop a new routine/schedule but it hasn’t happened yet. I do, however, have a short…

A Day of Winter in Oklahoma
I was thinking we might just skip winter here in Oklahoma this year. After last winter I was perfectly happy with that possibility.

February – Slow Month #2
I meant to write more about this but got caught up in the Grammy Awards…and Facebooking and Tweeting about it. But since I have plans for another post tomorrow I’m going to go ahead and post this barebones version of an update tonight. Below is what I’ve spent on groceries so far this month. This…
