Soooo....   Didja watch the first part of the RHONJ Reunion?   Well.  While it was arguably the most exciting episode of the season so far, it was also the most overwhelming.  Insults were hurled back and forth, names were called, people were continuously interrupted... to do an entire recap/play by play of the episode would … [Read more...]

I'm the first to admit that I don't have a lot of time for crafts. Honestly, I have a ton of interests -- scrapbooking, crocheting, embroidering...but between running two blogs, running a house, raising an 8 year old, AND having a baby on the way, hobbies often take a back seat. I had a lot more time for paper crafting before I started … [Read more...]

Oh Big Brother.   I don't even know what to say.   This week was the finale.  I can't say that I was super thrilled with the way the season ended, but I guess nothing is worse than the year the Nerd Herd made it to the end, so whatevs.   I mean...Danielle?   I don't know how many of you subscribe to live … [Read more...]

Soooo.....   I'm pretty sure that The Bachelor Pad finale was filmed on Opposite Day.   Ed and Jaclyn and Tony and Blakely were probably the most likeable people there.   Micheal Stagliano was a complete and total jackwagon.   Yes, I said jackwagon.  It's a real thing you can say.   The … [Read more...]
