Here are a few of my favorite links:

http://budgetvino.com- This is my kinda wine drinking. Reviews on bottles $10 and under. No more scouring the liquor store without a clue

http://www.usmagazine.com- Celeb smut for free. I just can't bring myself to spend $100 a year for people.

http://www.paperbackswap.com- For those of us who are not on the ball enough for the library. My buddy Sarah told me about them and I love it.

http://allrecipes.com- I can find a recipie for anything on this site. Love it!

http://www.askdrsears.com- The answers to my parenting questions. I love that he never encourages me to let my baby "cry it out" and he is crunchy, just like me.

http://www.kellymom.com- Everything breastfeeding. Nuff said.

http://www.mint.com- This site ROCKS for managing your money. You just put in all your accounts, credit cards, mortgages, and even funds and it keeps track of everything. It tells you how much you spend where, and gives you a budget. It keeps track of payments. I love this thing!

So, know you know what I do when I am not cooking or playing with the kids. Heaven knows I'm not cleaning, have you seen this place?!

His blogging is not incredibly frequent but when he does blog….it’s good!” Now, while I’m humbled that a man like Kevin would even want to read my blog, I figured it was a good time to state once and for all why I only post once or twice a month.
