Fab Finds Friday – Decor on the Cheap: Cool Vinyl Wall Decals

Friday, February 27th, 2009

I’m thinking about freshening up my daughter’s room decor a bit. I want something low-fuss and easy because I honestly don’t have time for much more than that. I’m intrigued by all of the cool vinyl decals out there – you slap ‘em onto the wall and, voila!, instant room makeover.   They’re pretty affordable [...]

Video Interview: Octo-Mom and Octo-Granny Face-Off

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

It’s been over a week since I posted about batty Nadya Suleman.  It’s taken great restraint. I’m glad I waited…cuz there are all sorts of juicy tidbits to report. #1:  Radaronline.com posted 2 videos of crazy Octo-Mom and Octo-Granny being interviewed. They argue. They bicker. It’s great. Octo-Granny calls Nadya out of some of her [...]

Treehugger Tuesday: Plastic + Yarn = Plarn

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

Another one of those odd green movements: Plarn.  Plarn is yarn made out of plastic grocery bags and occasionally other things like cassette tape innards. You use it like you would regular yarn – knitting, crocheting, etc. When I first read about it, I thought it was a hideous idea (much like ‘freeganism‘) with a [...]

Fab Finds Monday? – The Pedi-Egg: Less Like an Egg and More Like a Cheese Grater

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Well, hello there! I took a little hiatus and ran off to the mountains for 5 days with the family. I’m back and have lots o’ post ideas for this week, starting with this one that I actually wrote on Friday but only finished up today. My friend, G$, recently suggested I highlight the Pedi-Egg [...]

Fab Finds Friday – Chic Business Card Holders

Friday, February 13th, 2009

“Chic Business Card Holders” is another one of those search terms that brings a substantial amount of visitors to my blog (although not the same way all of the Octo-Mom postings have. We’ve had a record week of visits here at HMWW because of that crazy Nadya, but I really need a break from that [...]

More Octo-Mom (Sorry!) – Pregnancy Photos. Those Are Some Serious Stretch Marks!

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

And you thought you gained a lot of weight during pregnancy…. This is unbelievable…and is probably the first time I’ve felt sorry for this woman. What percentage of the donations collected on her website will go toward a massive tummy-tuck?

Octo-Mom Freakshow Round-Up – Check out Her Website

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

So, here’s the latest news in the Octo-Mom circus: Nadya said she has no plans to ever be on welfare, but then we found out she had been using about $500/month in food stamps.  Plus, she’s getting Social Sercutiy disability payments for 3 of her (original 6) children who are disabled. She does not consider [...]

Treehugger Tuesday – Give Me a Freegan Break

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

I’m all for trying to be better to Mother Earth, but some stuff I read about seems extreme. One “green” lifestyle idea I just cannot embrace is “freeganism”. ”Freegan” comes from the words “free” and “vegan”.  These are people who are so disgusted by how much people throw away that they do their grocery ‘shopping’ by [...]

Octo-Mom and Angelina – Check It Out

Monday, February 9th, 2009

This is so creepy!  The lips, the nose, the big family…Nadya is just missing mental stability, a huge paycheck and a muy caliente husband.    Update: I take it back. Angie is kooky too. I mean, whoever thinks Billy Bob Thornton is hot and wears a vile of his blood around her neck cannot be [...]
