entirely true, but exaggerated for comic effect
I have real pants on now

This morning I realized that I had spent over 36 straight hours in yoga pants.  Not the SAME yoga pants, mind you, but still. YOGA PANTS.  For THIRTY SIX HOURS.

Holy hell.

Tonight I made corn on the cob for dinner; Wade and I each ate one whole cob (is that the proper term?) and then split the remaining one because it truly was the Best Corn Ever.  And Charlie asked, “Mama, why do you always take the pointy end and give Daddy the stubby end?”

Wade thought that was hysterical because in sixteen years we’ve been together, this is the FIRST TIME I’ve ever made corn on the cob.  Seriously.

I have a new post up at Gather, in the Egg Council’s Incredible group, about eating breakfast for dinner.  And  last week’s post (in case you missed it YOU DIDN’T MISS IT DID YOU?!?) was about a great site called Mommy, What’s For Dinner?  I love that name so much.

Finally, if you do nothing else today, go over to Design Mom and check out the auctions for Nie Nie Day.  Nie Nie Day is a fundraiser for Stephanie Nielson, of the NieNie Dialogues; Stephanie and her husband, Christian, were in a plane crash last weekend and are still in the hospital. Their recovery will be long and hard.

Stephanie’s sister, C Jane, has been writing about what they have been through this week.  “I am starting to believe that there is no such thing as tragedy. There is only opportunity for growth, and should you accept it, the reward overcomes the sailing of the hardship.”

I don’t know Stephanie, but I know Gabrielle, and her heart is huge.  She has over 275 auctions raising funds for Nie Nie.  Go, bid, help.  It’s such an easy thing to do, and it will make such a huge difference to the Nielson family.

Thank you.
