It’s been a long time since I’ve gone on a hard core rant – but here it is: Who CARES how many kids the Duggars have?!?! It’s not often that I get a chance to sit around and watch the morning “news”, but today I had the rare occasion to stumble upon Better Mornings Atlanta […]

Marshall sent me to the grocery store two nights ago to buy a whole chicken for dinner – so I bought a whole raw chicken and set it on the counter. “What is this?” he asked in confusion. “It’s a chicken babe,” I explained. “You asked me to buy a whole chicken.” He looked at […]
