"Mommy, are you going to jail?"
This is what my daughter asked me, as I was being pulled over by the police for speeding. All three of my children were in the car at the time, and I had been speeding down Bentley Road because I was late to a lunch date with some friends.
"No, mommy's not going to jail. Mommy is getting a speeding ticket," I explained to my worried 7 and 6 year-old daughters. "That means I have to pay a fine."

I had the opportunity to visit New York City for a long weekend with some girlfriends, and while there, ate at Sardi's Restaurant.

Have you ever done an internet search on your name?
Apparently, I won a beauty contest in Omaha in 2005, and received a degree in Applied. Mathematics and Statistics from John Hopkins University in 2009, according to a Google search. (Note - this was not actually me, but someone with my name.)
Have you ever typed in your child's name and seen what an internet search yields about them? Go a step farther and look at the images associated with your child's name.

Are all cinnamon rolls created equal?
Here's the guide to the best cinnamon rolls in Bluffton.
If what you love about cinnamon rolls is the moist, yeast dough, then head over to the Twisted Whisk for the moistest, tightly rolled rolls in town. These cinnamon rolls are the trademark of Sam Erter, co-owner of the cafe.

They say "Have a great day!" and hand you a hot cup of joe. And the day feels an increment better for holding that cup in your hand, independent of whether it's raining outside or the state of your hair. With coffee from the Twisted Whisk in my hand, I can face the world.

Why is meal-planning such a headache? Now that school is back in session, everyone's schedule is getting busier. I decided to take the hassle out of my meal-planning and get a Fresh Meal box from The Dough Hook.
