Amazon.com: Advent Candle Set: Kitchen & Dining. If, like me, you are a bit behind, with prime you can have these by tuesday. Realistically, that is before I would get them from a store anyway. I did try in two stores today, so I am not a total loser. Read more

Stocking Stuffers?

Last updated on: November 26, 2011 at 4:07 pm By Mary Alice

Any suggestions for non-junk stocking stuffers? One friend said socks and extra stretchy gloves, my kids always need those, so I thought that was great. I usually put in lip balm, a grapefruit, a little bit of candy, a fun toothbrush. What do you think? Read more

While tackling the “to-do” list

Last updated on: November 25, 2011 at 8:27 am By Mary Alice

Faith & Family : Features : From Attitude to Gratitude. I found the reflection above very moving, and I hope to keep it in mind as I go about my busy, busy Advent. It is particularly fitting because we are about to begin braces for our oldest, so I can sympathize with all of the pain and frustration that goes along with that “privilege,” even from the parents perspective. We have to pay a crazy amount of money... Read more

Building Cathedrals Gift Guide 2011

Last updated on: November 23, 2011 at 3:09 pm By Mary Alice

People have been asking me for suggestions of gifts for my children, and I admit to being a bit at a loss this year. We have some perennial favorites, but although we could use an influx of new toys and games, I don’t really know what is out there. I thought I might offer some of our favorites, and perhaps you can help me out with ideas that will be our future favorites. In the past, we have talked about... Read more

It’s Handprint Turkey Time

Last updated on: November 23, 2011 at 11:00 am By Mary Alice

I am so excited and touched the my children have been asking when we are going to do the handprint turkeys. This silly little tradition is fully part of their Thanksgiving. I hope that they will still come back and do it when they are in college. I hope that they will do it with my grandkids. For some reason, it gives me so much joy. I have a lot of the old turkeys somewhere, and I should make an... Read more

“Mom-nesia”

Last updated on: November 21, 2011 at 3:00 pm By Katrina

My friends and I often joke about “mommy brain” when we say something incomprehensible, forget something important, or fail to complete a task that used to be simple for us, such as calculating a 10% tip and splitting it 5 ways at dinner, for example. I came across this article while searching for an answer to the question, “Is there such a thing as mommy brain?” The short answer is that a mother’s brain capacity is the same during pregnancy and...

Builder Baby Boom

Count our family in to the 2012 Building Cathedrals’ Baby Boom… So far we have: Red due in January Awol Mommy due in February Texas Mommy due in April And now… B-mama due in May!!!! In an effort to keep things real for our readers, I’ll be honest and say the news initially took us by storm. We were shocked, unprepared, and left wondering what God intended for our already-bustling family. He is so Provident, though, knowing just what we... Read more

Peanut Butter Recall: Smucker’s Recalls Jars Of Chunky Peanut Butter Due To Possible Salmonella Contamination

Last updated on: November 17, 2011 at 11:04 am By Mary Alice

Peanut Butter Recall: Smucker’s Recalls Jars Of Chunky Peanut Butter Due To Possible Salmonella Contamination. Interesting, because I tried to buy this product last night and the shelf was bare, which I thought was because of the peanut shortage, but perhaps Wegmans had already pulled the Smuckers from the shelves.

A Hearty Breakfast

Last updated on: November 16, 2011 at 9:19 am By Katrina

Good morning, ladies! This morning, I am thinking about breakfast options, and realizing that our boxes of cereal have gone untouched for the past few days. We have been relying more on oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, and homemade muffins/pancakes/waffles to get us going in the morning, and I would love to expand our repertoire and add some new items. There are some mornings that cereal does the job just fine – I especially like Special K because it has large amounts... Read more
