Big Boo Cast: Episode 182

April 29, 2020 ·

In this episode, we discuss that Sophie made a roasted chicken and has inspired me to do the same even with all my chicken issues. We also talk about various things we are watching to fill the time during these days of pandemonium.

And, most importantly, we talk about gift idea for Mother’s Day because the children will not be making crafts at school this year and it is also hard to venture into a store. Thus, shipping is your friend but you better order it soon.

We hope you enjoy!

Who is Melanie?

Melanie ShankleMy name is Melanie and, in some strange twist of fate, I’m also known as Big Mama because I started this blog in July of 2006 when my daughter, Caroline, was not quite three years old and I was in the process of convincing her that BIG girls use the potty and BIG girls don’t have pacifiers, thus she thought BIG was the highest compliment in the land and began referring to me as BIG MAMA.Read More

I am so grateful that boy grew into a man who loves God, loves his family and leads us with unwavering loyalty and love. In a year full of chaos and uncertainty, he remains steadfast, solid and full of opinions he is never afraid to express. I’m thankful for all of it. Except maybe some of the opinions. ⁣
