WFMW: Kitchen Art Cabinet

March 6, 2007

What works for me is not worrying about limiting the kids’ creativity. Behold The Art Cupboard. (Did you use your echo voice? You should have totally used your echo voice.)

WFMW: Eating Healthier

January 10, 2007

Shannon’s asking for our healthy eating recipes this week. First, though, I want to give you my main tip: start slow and give yourself some leeway. If you completely change the way you cook and feed your family they will most likely rebel and so will you. It probably won’t be long term. (Says the [...]

WFMW: Black Friday Ads

November 15, 2006

Since this is the holiday edition of WFMW, I will share one of my online resources to help you plan our Black Friday shopping. Although I love to shop, I do not love to get up early or be crushed or compete for a deal. For those reasons I do not participate in Black Friday. [...]
