All shook up

Life Ingredients


One part single mom
Hi, I'm Rebecca, a 30-something single mom of two daughters, ages (almost) 2 and 4. In this blog you'll read about the ups and down of adventures in our life— from the quirky, funny to the occasionally serious.


One part artist
If I had to quickly define myself, it's easiest to say I'm an abstract photographer who was formally trained in fine art (before the days of digital photography). These days, I mostly photograph my kids, but you may also read about my goal to do more creative projects and search out more solutions—with materials other than finger paint.

One part writer
By day, I work full-time as the editor of a parenting magazine. That's how I got caught up in the blogging world. (You'll never hear me use the term "mommy blogger." Or "mommy" anything for that matter. It's nerve-grating. I'm slowly learning to overlook the popularity of the term, but I still refuse to use or incorporate it.)

One part magician
To make this all work takes a bit of magic. Or luck. Or something otherworldly. Often it works, and just as often it doesn't. For better or worse, I see my glass as half full (even after I've knocked the glass over). Abracadabra!

Shake, pour, drink in good company
I love to tell a good story as much as I love to listen to one. Cheers!
