When I was visiting family on Oahu last Christmas I dreamt that I ran into the President-elect and his family at Matsumoto’s Shave Ice on the North Shore. I must have made a good impression because they offered me a job as the “Presidential Nanny,” so I moved out to DC to live and work in the White House and started a site called “The Presidential Nanny Blog,” LOLOLOLZ!
To do my push-ups every day, to remember to do my deep breathing exercises when I’m feeling stressed out and to buy books for next semester

Hi Tuprnut,
Oh no… why are you uneasy today?

My hubby’s getting deployed again in a few weeks. It’s Germany this time, which is way better than another trip to Iraq. But, I always get super anxious before he deploys – just thinking of all the to-do’s before he leaves and worried how Grace will do without Daddy at home.

Thank goodness for all of the new electronic doo-dads we have at our disposal to keep in touch with our friends and loved ones who are stationed overseas. When my best guy friend from high school went to boot camp years about a billion years ago the only thing we had to stay in touch were old school handwritten letters.

Hi Elissa,
Okay, so you’ll totally laugh, but John Mayer smiled at me while he was playing at the Fillmore in SF a few years ago. My homegirl and I pushed our way to the front and while he was rocking out on his guitar he stared down and gave me a huge smile. At first I thought I imagined it, but my friend totally saw it too, LOL. Soooo lame, I know, but it totally made me happy for weeks.
Hi Karen4,
I agree about Rod — plus, back in the day he rocked that fierce hair. 🙂 I remember watching the video to Young Turks in the 80s and wishing that I was in it, LOL.

How is the hunt going? Any prospects?
Hi Cindy,
It’s good to meet you! I am glad you are enjoying the site and the new videos. Let me know if there’s ever something you want me to cover. 🙂

Anyway, have a good night and hopefully we’ll chat again soon!
Hi Karen!
It’s my indulgence and the most awesome pie, IMO!
Haha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banoffee_pie
My take on it is a little bit more rustic. Bottom layer is crushes digestive biscuits rubbed in with butter. Second layer is homemade gooey toffee. Third layer is freshly sliced bananas. Last but not least, a good amount of cream on top sprinkled with some chocolate powder/shavings. For those who wants a little bit more kick, sprikle powdered coffee as well. 😀
