Share This:I’m not saying I’m not guilty of giving my kids all these things, but I’m looking at how folks are turning out these days and I’m just not impressed. Kids today get given every damn thing they want and have the emotional baggage to show for it. Y’all do what you want with your…
Share This: Dear Teenage Grocery Store Clerk, I think we need a little etiquette lesson, my friend. I had just loaded my Bota boxes of wine onto the conveyor belt and was reaching in my bag to find my I.D. when you hit that little button and the screen read: Cashier Has By-passed Age Validation…
Share This:Dear Queenan, I travel often for work, always dressed for my next meeting, and I am appalled at the wardrobe of my fellow passengers. I was raised to dress professionally for all travel, but I was sitting in the business-class lounge beside this woman in sports gear. Am I just out-dated in my thinking…
Share This:For those of you just meeting me, I want to be clear that I am not now, nor have I ever professed to be a great cook, a good cook, or even one who cooks. My singular domestic skill however, is baking delicious-and-never-low-fat items. My specialties involve anything made with sugar, butter, and eggs…

And then one day she just decided she wasn’t going to wear diapers again and used the toilet properly and efficiently like the perfect Angel she can be. But then what do you…

Share This:Oooh I am just so delighted! I have been invited to an event so old-school Southern, I didn’t even know about it until just recently. I have been invited to a Sip ‘n’ See!! Apparently this concept is an old Southern tradition that’s becoming quite the rage again; the idea being that you “sip”…
Share This:Dear Fashion-less Moron with Head-Up-Ass: It is not in my nature to speak disparagingly of myself. Disparagingly of others is really a better fit. I say this because I don’t want you to think this is another diatribe by a woman thinking she looks bad in a bathing suit. I look fabulous in a…
Share This: Sometimes we drink, sometimes we judge and sometimes we judge our drinking. This is one of those times. Sweetpotato and I have found ourselves at a crossroads. We have had just enough good wine to know better and we were on the verge of becoming too discerning for our own piggy bank. The…
Share This:Dear Queenan, We were out at dinner with our kids and ran into another family from the kids’ school. The mother was really friendly until she noticed our glasses of wine and then started acting uncomfortable. It made me feel like I was doing something wrong. Is it acceptable to have a drink in…
