I Think I Subconsciously Hate My Fiance
I sincerely love my fiance. He’s one of my favorite people, and he’s hilarious. He gets my sense of humor, and he keeps me grounded when I am SO not. But I’m starting to think that I subconsciously dislike him. Specifically in my sleep, I do every possible thing that could annoy him. The other night, …

Free Ashton Kutcher Speech Printables
What? A post on a Wednesday? Who knew that I would stay up until almost midnight making Ashton Kutcher posters on a Tuesday night when I CLEARLY should have been sleeping? I heard bits of his speech from the Teen Choice Awards on the radio on my way to work on Monday and it really …

Potter Park Zoo
The clematis have bloomed. All three shades of purple, actually! On the fourth of July, I had the day off and my brother and his girlfriend had come into town to go to the Toledo zoo. I got a little jealous and decided that I wanted to go to the zoo and it wasn’t fair. Cue Veruca …

The Polka Dot Cake from Hell
This past weekend was Ronan’s birthday party up at the Port Huron KOA Kampgrounds, and naturally, I was charged with making the cake. There was one thing that was mandatory on the cake, and that was it had to involve moose because that’s what Ronan’s mom calls him. This post contains affiliate links, which means …
