I am having a love affair with my waffle iron. It’s a tried-and-true old Black and Decker passed down to me from my mother-in-law. Because the waffle iron and I are getting along so well when it comes to traditional waffles, I thought I’d try something quite untraditional — stuffed waffles.

Boy, do I love funny typos. But this one is truly heinous.
Had I read this script on air, it would have caused me massive embarrassment. The kind of embarrassment that lands you on YouTube for millions of people to laugh at.

When it comes to summer cooking, the easier the recipe the better, right? This fits the bill. The sweet potatoes provide a generous dose of vitamin A, which is good for the eyes and skin. But perhaps more importantly, most kids will actually want to eat it.

I can’t believe this myself — but I have saved a chopstick wrapper for about 7 or 8 years now.

I mentioned the thing I have for magazines, right? Well, here’s what I love even more: finding a glaring typographical error on the page of a magazine. Publications which I’m sure have gobs of editors to catch such mistakes.

Well, here it is — May 20. My last day in the working world.
How did today get here so quickly? When my boss and I agreed on my last day, May 20 seemed so far off. Then again, it seems like my two-year-old was just born last month. Is a warped sense of time another one of those lingering post-pregnancy side effects no one ever talks about?

I am a crybaby.
There. I said it. When something sets me off, the waterworks just don’t stop. I don’t really get the big, heaving sobs. My tear ducts just suddenly morph into mini waterfalls.

It’s finally here. I’m so excited my home on the Interwebs has finally come to life. But I’m WAY more excited that you’re here.
