Who new the South Whidbey Assembly of God sponsored our annual 3rd of July fireworks in Freeland. And does anyone care? I just like fireworks and having the celebration on the 3rd suite me fine as I can't get enough fireworks.

It had been a while since I had thrown a baby shower, but this past summer I had the opportunity to throw a Baby Shower Barbecue. In search of ideas, I did a search on a variety of my favorite blogs. Nowadays, when it comes time to search for new ideas or awesome recipes, I throw in “blog” or “mom blog” at the end of the search term. I have found that I get more specific results, with great pictures and detailed instructions. As a “mommy” blogger myself, I know that the majority of bloggers w...

Shoot-em-up games, or shmups, consist of lone or small groups of players shooting at and being shot at by hordes of colorful enemies. The genre is thought to have peaked in the mid-'90s, but recent games in the indie world may be saying otherwise. Geometry Wars and other twin-stick games kicked off the trend, but newbies Trouble Witches NEO, Outland and just-released Gatling Gears have brought some much needed originality into the modern shmup scene—making it something worth exploring again. ...
