dull dull dull
{Le Petit Village in hibernation} I don’t know what the deal is around here but there is nothing to report at all (except of course the disappearance of two plastic ducks and all my family china being broken… and you’ll be happy to know that Operation Superglue is coming along nicely). Maybe it’s because January…

Pinky & Blue
{random} What can one say about Pinky and Blue? Sure they were a couple of plastic ducks living in Le Petit Village, but there has to be more to say than that. Maybe how they showed up unexpectedly, brightening up an otherwise boring and dreary day and my walk with Fifty. How they sat quietly and contently…

raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens… you can’t really think of that without it putting you in a good mood, can you? It’s impossible to fight the cheeriness. Julie Andrews. Bless. Super glam, Mama, at Fabulous! (pasta not included) has asked me about some of my favorite things. And since I’ve been awake since 5am on this Sunday…

Over the holidays I had the last of my things shipped from Dublin; mostly Waterford and china, wedding presents and family heirlooms. Almost all now broken, just like I feel.…

I like that, especially since as many of you know, I don’t follow them anyway (always the rebel). So instead of telling you secrets or philosophies I’m going to tell…

things I learned on holiday
AYE A FUCKENMUCKENNUCKEN! This is the new word I learned while I was in Dublin. It’s the noise/ sound/ word that popped out of my mother as she plunged her hand into a sink of boiling water (It should be noted that she hadn’t intended on plunging her hand into a sink full of boiling…

A Christmas Eve Miracle
The holiday adrenaline has left me and even though I feel like a little fat slug, I’m still going to tell you all about my week. Let’s see… where to start… how about with Dublin’s insane snowfall? The most snow they’ve had for many, many years (too lazy to look it up, but trust me, it…

How Come I Didn't Get One?
A Hello Kitty skateboard has to be one of the coolest presents for six and eight year old girls to unwrap on Christmas. I mean, if I got a Hello Kitty skateboard I know I’d be pretty stoked. And I’m thinking my 75 year old uncle really wanted one too because he took the…
