– iPhone app I'm super impressed with: Find My iPhone. After shooting photos with Broken Spoke in the afternoon, I noticed that I couldn't find my phone anywhere. The G told me to use Apple's iCloud to, uh, find my iPhone. Using my laptop, I saw it was in Rice Park, so I jetted down…

I recently picked up a Self Magazine (it was between that and OK Magazine , and the cashier looked a little judge-y to me, so the celebrity gossip will have to wait) and was pleased to find it was the Self Challenge issue. The Self Challenge was this three month program designed to get you…

– so much candy: Cadbury Mini Eggs and Creme Eggs (because they're the best) Starburst jelly beans (they're also the best, so suck it, Jelly Bellys) coconut M&Ms (for The G) and peanut butter ones (for me) Whoppers malted milk ball eggs (those are like Kryptonite for my willpower, plus I enjoyed typing "ball eggs")…

I started running "for fun" awhile back. I think "for fun" are the wrong words to use. It was more like "for self-imposed torture [masochism, training, whatevs]". I needed to lose some post-preggo pounds and running gives you a pretty decent time/calories-burnt rate. It wasn't just for the fat, though! It was for…

– spring cleaning. Out with the old and in with the… old. Because I have ten boxes of little girl clothing in all sizes and seasons. Hey ladies, welcome to hand-me-downs. At least your older sibling is the same gender of you. I WISH I had gotten the Yoda shirt – a Showcase…

Lest you think it's all rioting and frolicking here all the time at the Brattski Manor, it's not. I'm not holding a pity party, people (but it is an alliteration affair). Some friends and loved ones are having a hard time of it and it's SAD. Give peace a chance or something, and send good…
