Sometimes a product has a number of uses, in this case I’m speaking specifically of Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. You can go ahead and chuckle at the cute name but (no pun) the name is memorable, now let me tell you about the product and why you should remember it when you wish to soothe irritated skin.

When my son was younger he was a very picky eater. Being a single mom in college and holding down 2 jobs, I had neither the time nor budget for fancy meals. One day, feeling rather exasperated at my son’s refusal of a traditional meal, I thought to make him a cheese tortilla. The recipe is simple: Ingredients: flour tortilla and shredded cheese. I like a Monterrey Jack and Cheddar-cheese mix.

Marchelinebertrand On the third anniversary of her death, from her no doubt still-missing-her-very-much adult children, James Haven and Angelina Jolie, a tribute with lovely video of the three of them frolicking in Hawaii. The late Kamakawiwo’Ole’s version of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” accompanies the video. It’s a very pretty version and very different in that [...]

Now I wonder “who” utters the words in the title? It sounds like a dismissive wave of a sentence. Could it be Kate when she discovers that Sawyer has been shacking up with Juliet for three years? Or will it be what Sawyer says to Kate when he finds out that she and Jack have [...]

Normally I wouldn’t post a borderline exploitative video about children but these children’s parents have sold rights to their images for millions of dollars which even though the millions were to go to charity, giving millions to charity means you get a tremendous tax break– so I’m making an exception this once. Also, see the [...]

Source: E!Online Thanks to UltraHyperShadow and SpoilersLost for the transcript Miles: Some rendezvous, it’s just us! Daniel: Well, we should probably wait, see if they catch up. They could be right behind us. Charlotte: Yeah, or they came and left. Miles: Or they’re dead. Daniel: Miles, that right there, that kind of…attitude…not exactly what we [...]

It sounds like they are pulling together the story as much as they can do in nine eppys and it sounds like the Connor family is going to expand again, too. Finally, a romance for Sarah! “HUGE spoiler for the return of Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles on Feb 13 – from the producers blog [...]

In a new interview with “W’ magazine Brad Pitt directly addresses his ex-wife’s recent behaviour in the press and is a total gentleman, giving her way more credit for classiness than she has earned. (My comments follow the article excerpt.) Source Despite Aniston’s recent comment to Vogue in which she called Jolie “really uncool” for [...]

In my opinion magnets are cool because they have an almost mysterious force within them. All children of a certain age and some adults as well can play for hours with magnets as they are so versatile and fascinating. Though they may seem magical, the power of magnets is firmly grounded in science. A magnet [...]

This is amusing for about 3 seconds then I get to asking: Since Mom is using her prescribed medication in Dad’s coffee, what is she doing for medication? Unless she has two doctors she’s going to run out–and then what? And if she is obtaining mood altering drugs from at least two MD’s and she [...]

Angelina Jolie is not only promoting her film, “The Changeling,” the Clint Eastwood-directed film which she made over the period she got pregnant with the twins but she’s plunged back into charity travel and other good works. Her next film may be Jolie’s last for a while though, as the actress said last week that she [...]

Election night : Obama’s Flickr Collection Some photos from collection in sideshow from on HuffPost Barack having lost his grandmother who helped raise him just two days prior, holds the hand of his mother -in-law, the last close matriarch in his family.

Today was Canadian Thanksgiving. We went to Goebbert’s Pumpkin Farm, a tradition of ours for close to 15 years. It’s much the same each year. Run by the Goebbert family, it’s farmland full of pumpkins, gourds, cornstalks and Indian corn and if you must, on the second floor of the barn, sort-of Halloween stuff  (we [...]

My Favourite Post Secret This Week

Written by Caprica. Comments Off Posted in: Post Secret, family, photo
Tagged with , ,

Unless you are taking your pet drastically out of his/her environment, there’s never a need to put clothes on  her. I agree in spirit with the writer of this Post Secret–though I’m not sure what kind of revenge  is being alluded to. Dressing your dog up just for giggles is just sad, sad, sad. You [...]

Just got back from taking youngest son to the dermatologist for his monthly check. He’d gotten a blood test before 7 a.m. this morning as he is on high levels of Accutane (“he’s a big guy”) and they have to make sure that his liver is not being compromised. He is looking really good. Those [...]

Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White It’s Clue. Why? First I’m not really a game player, no cards really (unless you count “Uno),” no gambling, maybe a bit of backgammon but no chess. I will play Monopoly, Clue and Scrabble. But both kids liked playing Clue for quite a while–which is the next plus–almost anyone can [...]

Spouse and I went to the high school parent open house Thursday night. Spouse was crotchety. Most of the teachers seemed excellent. One or two tried too hard but they only have 10 minutes to do their whole spiel. And we are full into having classes transfer to college credit and taking the test that [...]

Last pics of Maple Lake for a while, I promise. My bedroom is an addition at the back of the cottage so not primo viewing but not poor, either. It’s extra good because my bedroom view at the condo is shite–parking lot, a patch of grass, paved street, and expensive townhomes across the street. . [...]

How were you punished as a child?

Written by Caprica. Comments Off Posted in: family, me

By my parents not at all really because I was an extremely well-behaved child–a parentified child actually. My mother, when I was younger hit me upside the head–which I did not like at all. She yelled a lot. In my teens though–nothing except one time when I really disappointed my folks and my dad was [...]
