And The Winner Is….
I asked Jill to select a winner from all the wonderful and hilarious entries. She picked the lovely and talented Carissa’s caption:
“Tell me again why I’m trying to have another one of these?”
Since Carissa is not yet a mom, Noah gets to keep all the goodies below for himself. Meanwhile, I will need to think […]

Dear Teenage Me
This is the most awesome meme-type project I’ve seen online in a long time. Thanks, Miss Zoot, for writing yours in time for me to hear about it!
I do feel a little weird about writing it — a number of readers knew Teenage Liza, and might have different interpretations of certain events.

Bah!

The Post About Trains That I’ve Been Not Writing
So here’s the thing: Noah is choo-choo obsessed.
Airplanes and other things with engines are interesting, but the first word out of his mouth most mornings is choo-choo, and it is with sobbing reaches towards the choo-choos that we take him upstairs at night. He takes a choo-choo into the bath, in the car, in […]

What’s Your Pirate Name?
My pirate name is:
Captain Bess Read
Even though there’s no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you’re the one in charge. Even through many pirates have a reputation for not being the brightest souls on earth, you defy the sterotypes. You’ve got taste and education. Arr!
Get your own pirate name from […]
