Shall we discuss what I’ve been eating?

Oh, yes. Let’s. It was Father’s Day this weekend, remember? Mmmm. I remember. We ate. Lots. We had Caramel Apple French Toast for breakfast, which is every bit as sinful as it sounds. If you threw on a scoop of ice cream, it would be dessert. Then, after church, we hurried right up and had

Remember that?

Remember when “rebates” used to come in the form of a check, that you could deposit or (better in every way) cash, and use just like… money? And that they’d come addressed to you, so you could be the one to use the… money? I miss those days. Fie, debit/credit cards in the name of

In which I unveil the Secrets to Happiness

Here’s what’s working for us right now in the Finding Joy department: * Say Thank You. Feeling grateful is one quarter-step behind feeling happy. Every time. * Eat together. Good food. Lots of it.

Things That Get in the Way of Writing (a short list).

1. Reading. Books. Blogs. Emails. More blogs. Kids’ book reports. Mail. Junk mail. Advertisements. Old letters. Magazine articles. 2. Sleeping. I’m actually a much more productive writer in my dreams. Bummer. 3. Sadness. Some small but difficult things have happened over the past three months (which we’ll talk about later), and I have found it

Dear Sabbath Day Bandits:

Oh, wow. Thank you for stopping by the Wilhite house last night. Just a couple of things… The masks are a perfect touch. If you don’t mind, next time, come fifteen minutes earlier. Kid 1 was a tiny bit crazy that she’d already taken out the contacts and put on the PJs. Also, her dad

50 Good Things I am Good At

(To be followed up tomorrow by a few of the good things I am not so good at… but I put the positive things first, because I am good at looking at the positive. How ’bout that?) Setting a goal (like this: Write 1000 words every day). Making lists. Making Pizza. Reading books quickly. Doing
