1. five things making me happy right this very second…
    1. President’s Choice mini hummus packs. i swear, between the invention of this AND my year-supply of crystal light singles, my lunch has been SAVED! (my lunch…because at another time we will discuss how my children are going to starve in their peanut-free, meat-free school since ALL my son eats is peanut butter and steak) 2. school [...]

  2. 2 conversations, 2 problems and one birthday princess
    i have this problem. i can’t leave anywhere. i’m sure i’ve spoken about this before. the husband and the kids do a lot of waiting around for me to finish talking. there’s just always something more to say. i can’t just be all “see ya” - it’s not my style. yesterday afternoon, i went to [...]

  3. a story of my first time. and my last time.
    i have so much to tell you. this weekend, my bachelorette weekend, was great. it involved many, many, many hours of sleeping. and a manicure (that i didn’t have to be forced to get) and going to see The Dark Knight ALL BY MYSELF (ah..little Ali has grown up…) and much brownie batter (the brownies [...]

  4. kosher for passover
    as a child of four extra hardworking parents, my siblings and i spent a lot of our childhood with nannies. or grandparents. so many of my memories…driving around town to find my brother the perfect pair of red and black fly skateboard shoes, sitting in the front of the tv watching Jessica McClure’s rescue from [...]

  5. a whole bunch of unrelated things. it’s how i’m rolling today.
    have any of you ever taken your empties back to MAC? i finished an eye shadow this morning and it was about to go under my bathroom counter to go and live with the 85,000 empty lipsticks, shadows, blushes i’ve been keeping and have never taken back (or thrown away either. hi, i’m ali. [...]

  6. wimps…clibamas…and fingers in boxes
    safe and sound. all in one piece. alive and well. unscathed. at work. Canadians sure are weenies. We live in a city where it snows. a lot. hell, it has pretty much snowed every single day since the beginning of December. It’s not like snow in Jerusalem. We should be prepared for winter storms. all it takes is a little [...]

  7. we both like josh duhamel AND mozzarella…CRAP
    aside from our desire for this dude we both desire this one as well… his name is mozzarella and he’s a total badass. i mean, come on, just look at it him. he’d totally kick Josh Duhamel’s ass in a fight. plus…he’s got a whole entourage… Now, normally, i can’t stand Fergie. I find her obnoxious and annoying. [...]

  8. a transformer, an interview, and a stack of books
    so, i’m working out again. well, i’ve always been doing the pilates (i hate you Mari Winsor and your v-sit position), but i took a short three month long hiatus from the treadmill. you see, i gave up my fancy, expensive gym membership to use the free gym at work. but carpools and a certain [...]

  9. the beach for the beach
    i came back from Atlanta after Chrismukah weighing 5 pounds less than i did the day i gave birth to my first-born. no, i’m not exaggerating. FIVE pounds. yeesh. so, i took the lard-ass by storm and gave up the cakesters mmm…cakesters… and headed to the beach. mostly because in 6 weeks i’m heading to the other beach and [...]

  10. throwing down with the LBC
    i lose hats. and gloves. and scarves. they get lost somewhere in the big black abyss. i blame this, of course, on our schizophrenic weather. i can leave the house in mitts and hat and coat and scarf and by the end of the day, it’s 60 degrees and my body needs to be stripped [...]
