When Put Pie was a few months old, I started using sign language with her. I found videos at the library, looked up signs online, and looked on youtube. I picked words that we used regularly like: more, eat, milk, dog, flower, tree, bird, socks, and shoes. The very first sign that she did was […]

Fragmented Fridays
I’ve been blogging for almost 3 years now and I still have no idea what I’m doing. There are times when I meticulously work on a post or write about something that I think people will be interested in and those posts get minimal attention. Then other times I just dash something off and those […]
Shit White Girls Say…to Mexican Girls
Have you seen, Shit White Girls Say…to Black Girls? If you haven’t, give it a look-see… Carla from all of me…now posted this video on Facebook and suggested someone do the Latina version.

You should be resting. But Rocky Road is exactly what I needed to be making. I have been feeling horrible the last few days with a […]
