Let me quote my self from my blog post from january 9th 2013.

“Standing in-front of the fridge like every 20 minutes, but then I’m sure my fridge would go out too.”

If you read that post, you will know that I was referring to alternate ways to cool off because my a/c was out AND IS STILL OUT.

Obviously I have pissed the universe.

When you hear the word Smithfield, what is the first thing that pops into your head?

Smithfield ham? Smithfield Virginia?

Well, if you said either, you would be right.

I had the amazing oppurtunity to spend a few days in Smithfield, Virginia learning alllll about Smithfield Products.

I was joined by two very awesome people, Michelle Ragussis (from the Next Food Newwork Star) and Simon Majumdar (also from The Food Network, Iron Chef judge).

Facebook. I love it and hate it.

It’s a necessary evil.

I post lots and lots of things on Facebook that are never mentioned on this site.

It’s that time of year again, when I dig into my site stats to figure out what posts y’all liked the best.

I know you wait all year for this.

Like more than Christmas.

It’s ok to admit it.

And I totally know you set an alert on you phone for this special day.

“I am one of the many craft, cooking, lifestyle and DIY bloggers who had posts to share with you today, but the events of Friday’s shooting in Connecticut have left us heartbroken. Like you, we cried as news reports poured in and wondered out loud about how something so cruel could hurt the most innocent and tender. We not only grieved for the lives lost and wounded, but for that part of the magic and wonder of this holiday season that was taken from us all.

We know that no words, no gifts, no acts of service will ever take away the pain, but we, as bloggers and parents collectively, want those affected by this to know how close to our hearts they are:

We love you. We pray for you. We’re so heartbroken for your loss.

To honor the memory of lives cut short, we choose to step away from our blogs and computers today to celebrate the gift of life and those we love most: our children, families, good friends and community. We’re holding our kids a little closer, reaching out to neighbors and giving thanks for the moments we have together.

Thank you for stopping by today. We hope you’ll join us in remembering, praying, and gathering close. We wish you and your families a safe and blessed holiday.”
