There have been lots of quips about what makes the world go 'round. But we mothers know the real truth here. Mothers make the world go 'round. We all live our own brand of motherhood. We carry on with equal parts of smiles and grimaces as we Kerry Strug our … [Read more...] about Just for Moms – 5:00 Fridays

Pink Ladies – 5:00 Fridays
I have a group of gal pals who do the Komen Race for the Cure every year. We do the race route twice, walking all 10 K, mind you. Then we go get pedicures, lunch, and drinks. It's become a tradition of sorts. My first Race for the Cure was for Susan, whom I had read about but … [Read more...] about Pink Ladies – 5:00 Fridays
Mexican Bloody Mary – 5:00 Fridays
I've just spent the better part of a week in San Diego for spring break with my family. No, we didn't go to the zoo. Yes, we went to Sea World and LEGOLAND.

Seattle’s Next Best – 5:00 Fridays
I've never been to Seattle. I have known people who lived there over the years but never made my way west for a visit. Mac Daddy has been a few times and raved about the restaurant scene. One restaurant sounded more like a strip club, but hey, he was with sales people in the … [Read more...] about Seattle’s Next Best – 5:00 Fridays
Wine Twits Wine Tasting – 5:00 Fridays
Last night I hosted an intimate little wine tasting with Fadra and the Jeffs as my guests. That could totally be a band, with Fadra wearing white gogo boots and the Jeffs singing duwop tunes wearing white dinner jackets. There were boots and jackets for sure, but nothing that … [Read more...] about Wine Twits Wine Tasting – 5:00 Fridays
