Many of you have enjoyed Jill’s reports here over the years — life with three sons in the suburbs.
Alas for me, Jill has decided to escape the friendly confines of NewMexiKen and, together with two friends, begin their own weblog, one “written by moms who want nothing more than dinner in a restaurant where crayons aren’t handed out with the menus.”
Jill and Tanya have been friends since high school; Erinn and Jill were sorority sisters at William and Mary. All three are amusing, clever writers with four girls and four boys among them.
There are already nearly 80 posts, including delightful ones from Tanya and Erinn not previously published here.
Take a look at Dinner without Crayons.
Thanks for the shout out. I personally will include you in our first book dedication, regardless of if Jilly feels she has dibs.
You have set a high bar; I just hope to limbo under it and not strain any muscles in the process.
This is great! I will enjoy reading it for sure.
I hope you will cross-post the “best of” crayons.
They’d probably slap me with a “take-down” letter.
Aw, you know I’ll never forget where I got my start.
Maybe we can work out something where you pay a – minimal – fee for each post you copy.
Keep in mind Dinner Without Crayons has its own lawyer who happens to specialize in nastygrams. 🙂
Said lawyer should be apprised that NewMexiKen owns our domain. Be nice or he can shut us down.
