Step into my office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"my<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This is where I do the very important work of blogging about being a mom. I know. You want to be like me when you grow up, don’t you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I even have an intern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"intern\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let me tell you, for an unpaid intern she’s quite expensive and high maintenance. She expects a meal, several meals, every day. I’d say something about her expecting me to wipe her butt, but that would be crude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the kind of meal I prepare for my crew every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"healthy<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ok, that’s not true. That’s the kind of food I intend to cook every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is more like the kind of food I prepare for our meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"unhealthy<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, no, that’s not true either. That is the kind of food I would like to eat, and it implies I actually cook. In reality, I serve freezer lasagna, macaroni and cheese, and anything else that requires less than 5 minutes of time and effort on my part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So much for being a food blogger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are my blogging pants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"froggy<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What? You don’t match your intern to your pants?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"napping<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Yes, she was taking yet another break. But she does contribute a lot to our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here she is storyboarding my next blog post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
