I’ve been up since early this morning writing my articles for Inside Northside, conducting phone interviews, trying to ignore the ever growing pile of laundry, running stupid errands for hubby and trying to tell myself that sane moms don’t reach for a beer at 11 AM (no I haven’t). I can only run on coffee …

Hubby says: “Let’s go out to eat.” Me: “I keep passing the cutest restaraunt that is a cool house off of 190. I haven’t heard anything about it so let’s go try.” After a long day at the pool with the kiddos; we drove less than a mile to this adorable house/cafe. I always tell …
Go ahead, sing that title to “I love a parade” & it may be stuck in your head all day. Son #2 has been sick all week. He was most upset that he would miss Beignet day at school. Since we had to venture out to the docs, I took him out to eat. We …
