Mamacita says: Most of you have never seen this picture before. Most of you have never known a time when television wasn’t a 24-hour marathon of programming. This is a test pattern.

Mamacita says: After a summer of rationalization and whining, I finally did get the yard work done today. I feel so much better about my home when the lawn looks nice. I do not want to be “THOSE people” when it comes to my lawn. I also HATE the sensation of wet grass slapping me [...]
Mamacita says: I’m leaving tomorrow to visit my brother and his family for a week, so I’ve tried to fill the refrigerator with all kinds of goodies. I know it’s stupid, because my husband is an excellent cook and is quite capable of feeding and caring for himself, but I have this annoying and very [...]
