About Lattes And Life

Lattes And Life is written by me, Tiffany, an over educated, former wild-and-crazy single girl in the city, turned SAHM in the swamps of Georgia.

I have a teenager, a preschooler, and a toddler. And a very loose grip on my sanity.

I love to bake and thought I could be a food blogger. That lasted about a year before I got dreadfully bored. There's only so much personality one can interject to a post about meatloaf.

I've been blogging since December 2006, so I'm pretty old by Blogosphere standards. Actually, I'm pretty old by IRL standards too. That's why I married a guy eight years younger than me. (does that make me one of those cougars?) He keeps me on my toes.


I try to be eco-friendly. But I usually fail. Homemade laundry soap didn't get my clothes clean. Cloth Diapers SUCKED. And I always forget my cloth grocery bags. But I try.

I'm Christian, but I don't like many Christians. I don't do preachy, I don't do judgment, I don't do hellfire and brimstone. I love everyone. Kind of like Jesus. Novel idea, no?

I have a bizarre penchant for pink electronics. I don't care what it is, as long as it's pink.

I'm a mommy, but chances are I'm not your mommy. So if you call me mommy, as in "mommy blogger", I'll kindly remind you my last name is not Blogger and I'm not so into the mother fetish thing.

I homeschool, but not for the typical reasons. If you're interested I just so happened to write a post titled, "Why We Homeschool".

I'm sarcastic, often sardonic, and see the world quite differently than most. I've never been one to follow the crowd, not even in high school. My passions and beliefs are very important to me and I'm not easily swayed. I'm a bleeding heart Liberal, die hard Democrat, and wannabe social activist.

Oh, and I guess you want know why "Lattes And Life". Well I'm a coffee snob. I had to get a job at Starbucks once to support my habit. It's bad. And Life? Well it's not any good when it's decaf either.
