Croquet on the Lawn
Sunday, my sister, brother and I squeezed into the backseat of my parents car and headed north to celebrate Father’s Day at my grandparents house. We spent the day playing ladder ball, bocce and croquet and eating (veggie) burgers and bumpy cake. We had to Google the rules for croquet and the [...]
Shoulder Pads & Peanut Butter Brownies
I spent much of the weekend hanging with my sister, Kate. Friday night we went and saw Sex and the City 2, mostly because we saw the first one together. I had hoped people were being overly dramatic with claims that it was terrible, but they were all correct. The fabulous shoes, clothes, and Carries [...]
Sister Date: Roller Derby + Cake
Saturday, I took my sister, Kate, on a date. We cruised downtown for the Detroit Roller Derby championship bout. It was exciting to see so many people downtown supporting the derby girls. Kate has been talking about joining the derby in her city for a while, so we’re planning a roller skating [...]Tags: family, sister, Sundays in the D
Teamwork
My mom, who has vertigo, was sick this weekend, so it was up to my sister and I to make dinner for us and our relatives. Every year we make pierogi for Easter.

1. Guacamole Pringles are my new fave…wish I hadn’t eaten all of them in the first 5 minutes I was at work this morning. 2. Kate and I are finally going to see Sex And The City tonight. Yes, I know, we’re the last people on earth to go see it. At least I won’t have ... [...]Get yo race on
I finally finished all the shirts for tomorrow and they turned out awesome. I only had to go buy iron-on transfers three times! Sat down and started printing them today and my ink cartridge runs out. So I called Kate to have her stop at Kinkos and get one before she came home, which totally ... [...]Spring Cleaning
This morning I half-jokingly told my sister I’d pay her $10 to clean my room, which has looked like an explosion for the past two months. She’s a college student and job hunting so she was interested. I had completely forgotten about the offer until I came home from work, walked into my [...]
