| Introduction | I am a 48 year-old mother of two girls aged 6 and 10 who cannot believe she is 47 and a mother of two girls. I have been with my partner for 20 years (for all those who just did a double take, said partner is a male). I work full time in the city which means I never have enough time to do anything because I am dedicating 3 hours a day just to get to my job much less do it. I love reading, eating and cooking (more the former these days), wine and being sarcastic. I've started this blog to share my unique observations and musings (well they are to me) on life, love, motherhood, couplehood, work and commuting (which includes a seemingly unending list of pet peeves on other people's behavior), televisions, movies and anything else that crosses my radar screen. Hopefully you will laugh from time to time but if you don't, it doesn't matter because I can't hear you. |

You can punch a hole in an apple using a straw. How do you think that makes your milkshake feel?
Afraid, very afraid.
