Working My Ass Off

I just wanted to assure you that you’ve found it– the interim site for the wickedly funny Tales From My Tiny Kingdom. You’ll see that only a few of my columns are up, but I’m adding more of the old ones as fast as I can. For example, I’ll put some pasta on to boil, set a timer for eight minutes and clip it to my waist, then run to the computer and go through my archives and start re-publishing posts. Wearing a timer on your waist while you write is really sexy if you’re married to the right man.

I’m not exactly going in order. I’m trying to put up some of the more popular posts, but really I have no good system and they’ll just be put up as I get

Okay, my pasta is ready and the twins are eating. See, I’m back, now with a glass of wine, working on the site.

I love writing new columns the best, and as I mentioned we’ve had quite a few run-ins with the tooth fairy recently, so I’m sure I’ll be posting fresh material before I get the old stuff completely up. If there’s a column you’re really dying for, leave a comment and I’ll be happy to give it priority.

    Hey, I didn’t realize until just now that you and I were at the Biltmore estate with a few weeks of each other, when Matt and I visited his grandparents in NC. Grr! I just missed one of my favourite bloggers!

    Looking forward to new posts, but just wanted to let you know I made your bowties with peas and prosciutto last night — it was DEVINE!! Seriously, my husband and I couldn’t stop eating, and I made lots of “yummy” noises while eating — a sure sign I was in love. Thanks for sharing, and PLEASE feel free to SHARE MORE easy and delicious RECIPES in the future!

    Just updated my link– iVillage appears to have left no forwarding address… hmm.

    Very glad you gave us the heads up on your move, and — as others have said — can’t wait for the new posts!

    I like to clip the timer to my shirt, where my cleavage would be if I had any. Sexy.

    Glad I found you! Hope all is well.

    Whew. I feel better now!

    Whew is right. I got quite worried when my bookmark to you brought up the iVillage home page! I tracked you down via Google, thank goodness. So glad I found you again.

    Hope all is well with you and the family!

    Hey Anne, good luck with nesting in the new space! (I imagine it’s a lot like unpacking a new home, but with more neck cramps and eye strain :D)

    It’s great to see you back, I love your blog. Will wait for you to post, but I gotta tell you, I can’t wait!

    Anna - I’m almost positive you posted about how much you despised the whole soccer snack routine. If you didn’t, I apologize. I read a few mom blogs, and the one I’m thinking of was quite a while ago. Anyway, it turns out you’re not the only one who feels that way! Check out this NYTimes article: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/27/opinion/27coben.html?em&ex=1162094400&en=911574d0864b528d&ei=5087%0A

    Doh, I know perfectly well your alias is ‘Anne’, not ‘Anna’–just blame my fat fingers and eagerness to get my comment posted. Sorry about that.

    What I'm Reading


    I've never read any of his fiction, but his book about the craft of writing was awesome.

    Hey, I have a story in this book about how I'm not always the best mom. It's guaranteed to make you feel better about yourself, especially the part where I throw stuff at Finn.

    I'd heard a lot about this and enjoyed it, but not as much as one of my all-time faves:

    The Boys Are Loving


    I didn't think Porter would like this, but I was desperate for him to read something, so I shoved it at him and it was a WINNER.

    Hooray-- there's a sequel to the original Diary. The guys are snarfing it up.


    Porter finished all the Harry Potter books so I started him on A Wrinkle In Time, and he's enjoying it. I bought the whole set so he'd have plenty to read for the next few months.


    After finishing the Harry Potters, Drew turned to the Hardy Boys. He can't tell a story "in a nutshell," so I've heard all about the missing jalopy, and the red wig. Solve the mystery already!
