As part of my initiative to get The Workaholic home before 2am, my hatred of the daily shower, and a sponsored post for Collective Bias, I’m telling you how you can always be ready to give a standing-ovation-worthy performance for your lover that won’t leave them running to grab some air freshener. Don’t get your…

Taking Care of Me, Taking Care of You – Women & Financial Planning
This week, we ventured out to an Entomology exhibit at the Museum of Life & Science in Durham. It was a really good time, and like the nerd I am, I read every plaque available. I was struck by the bee exhibit because I thought I knew about bees, but I had no idea….
Delicious Pairings and Perfect Play Dates
As a stay at home mom, I sometimes struggle with activities to keep the kids busy. Busy = no new crayon murals on the walls; no “power drinks” made out of olive oil, coriander, salt, pepper, parsley, and rosemary, (all of my rosemary) that I’m forced to taste against my will; no food sprinkled over…
From Curly to Girly in a Snap – A Flat Iron Review
So the week before the entire family and I came down with the Bubonic Plague, Flatironexperts.com sent me a brand new flat iron! It came on a hair washing day, but I had already washed my hair by the time it came. Wait, what? Did you just say “hair washing day”? Yep, I sure did….
Breaking the Mom Jeans Mold with Lee Jeans
If you’ve been reading for a while, you know that I’m working on my body. I don’t care to lose weight, though that is a definite bonus and I have plenty of weight to be lost, but I do care about becoming the healthiest me I can possibly be. Through lifting weights and moderate cardio,…
I’m a Dirty Girl
I hate showering. Showering sucks. I’ll tell you why: I have the thickest, most abundant, course, wavy hair of any white girl on the face of the planet. It’s also very dry so I can’t wash it every day. Then when I do wash my hair, it takes at least 8 minutes to wash &…
I Have Man Flu
I am the biggest jerkwad when The Workaholic is sick. He moans and groans like a cheap porn movie when he’s sick, and I just walk out of the room and let him fend for himself. I literally send The Muffin up with water on occasion. I have no sympathy because EVERY time he gets…
Top Valentine Gifts for your Paleo Prince or Princess
Sometimes Valentine’s Day can be the most difficult Hallmark Holiday for us Cave People. It is a holiday riddled with sugary treats and promises of love for the day. But what about those of us who don’t eat refined sugar? Or those of us who want to promise love all year long? It’s easier to…
The 12 Days of Blogging Singing Hilarity
I was humbled and honored to be approached by Toni at A Daily Dose of Toni to be involved in The Singing Bloggers Present The 12 Days of Blogging – a parody of the Christmas favorite The 12 Days of Christmas. There were some seriously amazing bloggers involved, and I am so excited that I got…
I Want a Magic Mike for Christmas
Have you heard the song, “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”? It’s my favorite. I’ve always wanted a hippopotamus for Christmas, so badly that I went out and bought one for myself last year. Only this year, I am changing the song to suit my very own Christmas gift-list needs. THIS year,…
