When dinnertime arrived, the "Big Chicken Plan" began to disintegrate.
The teenage vegetarian-in-residence flounced out, announcing, "I'd
rather eat frozen pizza in my room than have the death of a chicken on
my conscience."
I got creative one night and put frozen blueberries on top of cereal,
and did my children thank me? No. They whined for Daddy's bacon, egg
and cheese sandwiches. I served boiled broccoli with my special Tofu
Scrambler, and did they appreciate the healthy, home-cooked fare? No.
They asked if we could order pizza.
When I hear the phrase “multitasking mom,” I get an instant mental

treadmill, working her Blackberry, and effortlessly wrangling her
children, all at the same time. If only I were that cool! Oh, don’t get

And that it's their God-given right — in fact, it's their job — to choose the decorations, cake color, guest list and swizzle stick design for Mom and Dads' golden anniversary.
Singles searching for a spouse often believe that matrimony is the golden ticket to a lifetime of great sex, matching towels, funky artwork and meaningful conversations. Kind of like a Pottery Barn catalogue come to life.
A day or so ago, my (just turned!) four year old daughter pranced out
of the playroom attired from head to toe in dress-up silks and lace.
