Festive Snowman

My boyfriend and I came home from college for Chinese New Year to see this waiting for us in the driveway.  My mom says she made it, which most likely means she made my dad build it for her while she stood watching from the window.

Caution — Frangiblity

My mom was packing some of my old things into boxes. We got the boxes from the grocery store. This one originally contained some kind of “bagged” food. It now contains fragile items, I think.

Coupon Clipping Fail

Posted on December 16, 2009 at 11:21am

I went home this past weekend to visit my parents.  My mom told me she cut some coupons this week for us to use for grocery shopping. Turns out they’re not coupons, just advertisements.  Thanks for trying, Mom!

In order to leave enough room for me to pull into the garage, my mom leaves my dad this note.

And You Thought You Were Into Farmville

My mom loves her Facebook applications so much she checks them everyday.  One day after school my mom wasn’t home yet, but I found this note on my dresser.

The note reads: “Alanna, if I’m not home at 5′ O Clock p.m. please check my Cafe World and click my cook food okay. I love you. Thanks_!”

Happy Dunks!

Today, I was wrapping some Nike Dunks, a birthday present for a friend, when my mom came into my room with a handful of gaudy smiley face napkins. She claimed that the napkins’ colors matched the shoes perfectly, and that the smileys would make my friend “happy happy”. She then proceeded to fold little flowers out of them and stuck them in the tops of the shoes before wrapping them. She’s cute. And has an eagle eye for color.
