Mine is. And I have NO idea where she got it from. ;-P I actually was preparing myself for the tantrums and fits because my whole life I’d hear from family members how crazy I was as a toddler. From sticking my tongue out at complete strangers who were just saying hi to me to cursing out the children in my preschool class. History repeats itself….I just hope she doesn’t start calling people stupid asses. Now the real question is how to handle these tantrums. When she first started them, she would stomp her little chubby feet then drop to…
Throwing A Surprise Party? I’ve got some tips…
0For almost 4 years now, my husband has made it clear to me and everyone else that no one could ever pull a surprise party off for him. He’d say how he would know all the signs and if we were ever going anywhere beginning 2 weeks before his birthday, he’d know it would be a surprise. What a pain in the ass. Back in November, I got a brilliant idea to throw him a surprise 30th party. That gave me a good 4 months to pull it together. I didn’t know what I was in store for. All…
Rainy Day Activities
0Living in South Florida it is known that the summer months it usually rains by 3-4 pm then stops shortly after. So you plan your days accordingly – especially if you are hitting the beach or pool. Yet there are days, like today, that we wake up and its raining and no end is in sight. Guess no pool today…wah. So now what? What the hell am I going to do with a 14 month old with extreme amounts of energy?! Can’t booze it up, that’s for damn sure. So I go to plan B. Every mom should have a…

Disposable Diaper + Washer = No Bueno
25
AntiMom’s Tip#1 – Never Wash Disposable Diapers. EVER! If you end up in the same situation I was in the other night, where you are exhausted from going to the beach and spending the entire weekend in the hot sun and ready to collapse after you do just 1 load of laundry but then you realize as you empty the clothes from the washer to the dryer, that you have washed one of your child’s disposable diapers in with all the clothes. You want to cry, scream, punch a wall and/or slowly walk away and shut the door…
Nutella Makes Everything Betta
0Love me some Nutella! After this great Memorial Day weekend, my husband and I had our own little BBQ, just the 3 of us. While he was napping on the couch (lucky bastard), I thought I’d make a special dessert because after stuffing my face with yummy BBQ foods, I need something sweet! I had just bought Nutella and always have at least 1 box of Pillsbury pie dough in the fridge. So I got a brilliant idea to make little Nutella & Banana Pie Pouches. How bad could those turn out right?! They are extremely easy to make…
Leftover Lamb Gyros
0For Easter, in our house it is customary to serve lamb. For years, my mother has been making the leg of lamb in the oven with Seagrams and garlic. Well, for at least 3 years, she has managed to blow the oven door completely off from the massive explosion from the alcohol. It was quite a sight. So 3 oven doors and a new kitchen later, the parents have decided to try a new way of cooking the lamb, grill it baby! It is sooooooo freaking good! We had tons of left overs and as I was stuffing my face…
Meatless Friday – 20 Minute Minestrone Soup
0The husband has been feeling under the weather the past few days and requested minestrone soup. Of course the day I plan to make it is a day where I will be out of the house the majority of the day. So how to get the best of both worlds? A pressure cooker. I know some people might be a little scared of this guy, believe me, I was to when I first tried it. In fact, I am still scared of that damn thing. It makes cooking things like soup, which normally take an hour or so to…
Meatless Fridays – Pasta
0Now that its lent, for the next 9 Fridays, no meat! I have been searching for fish and vegetarian dishes to try out and can’t wait. Who knew I’d be so excited over not being able to have meat. Last Friday I was craving pasta. Nothing fancy, just a simple marinara sauce. MMMM! My husband gets mad at me because I refuse to keep any jarred pasta sauce in the house. It’s one of my weird house rules that MUST be followed. Its way too easy to whip up your own marinara sauce with some fresh ingredients than just popping…
The Letter of the Day is…. E
0E for empty. Totally running on empty today and its only 10. Was awoken last night by my husband who has, what me and WebMD have diagnosed as, heat rash. Apperently, heat rash feels like prickly, stinging, annoyance on your body. He was in so much pain he was up till 3:30 am, then finally woke me up to help. I sat there on my iPad trying to figure out the best method of treatment for the extremely accurate diagnosis. First was an oatmeal bath. As easy as it sounds, its quite tedious to concoct. That took about a good…
