Welcome to my newest venture on my blog in which I attempt to share my vast accumulation of knowledge from my 29+ years of life on this great planet.  Join me as I let you in to my world of housewifery tips, parenting secrets, and general life advice.  I am oh-so-qualified and I do hope you can learn much from my insights. (She says tongue-in-cheek:-)

First up:

Today’s lesson, children, is one that is dear to my heart.  As a pet-owner and a purchaser of candy, I felt the desire, no, the need, to share this latest pearl potato  with you.  Repeat after me:

Even if it is covered in sugar, it is never a good idea to eat dog poo.

Strangely enough, this is not an obvious, naturally-occurring thought in my kids’ minds.  It may have never crossed your children’s minds, either.  So practice this mantra with your family and you can thank me later!
