Big Mama

Well, the Aggies didn't win, but just as I predicted, I still enjoyed the snacks and the company at this past weekend's Texas A&M / Ole Miss game. We talk about both of those things, as well as Caroline's game day overalls and the pre-game festivities. Then, in news unrelated to football, we discuss the quality time Sophie and her husband have had with Alex's roommate and why she may open a Read More

I can't really talk about football right now, but thanks for asking. All that being said, I'm already in College Station for the game against Ole Miss this weekend. I'd appreciate your thoughts and prayers. Here are some cute things I found this week in between reading message boards about what's going on with Aggie football. 1. mock turtleneck pullover sweater This is such a great Read More

Over the years Sophie and I have had a lot of conversations about college football, but I don't think I have ever been as fired up about my Aggies as I am this week. That is to say: I'm a smidge angry. We process some of that anger before we move into Side Eyes and I See Yous, and then we do a little catch-up on the non-football things that have happened this past week. You may pick up on the fact Read More

We actually got a fairly legitimate cold front here on Monday and I was delighted. I can't remember the last time we had a cool, rainy day and I hope we have more of them in our winter future. Now, in fairness, it's back in the 80s over the weekend, but I did get to wear a sweater on two different occasions this week and that felt like a win. Here are some cute things I found this Read More

This is going to be quick because I'm currently in Brenham for a live Big Boo Cast show with Sophie and Retha. I can assure you we are having a ton of fun. But here are some cute things I found this week. Some of these are on the pricier end because they are too pretty to not share. 1. adore moi dress We have a Sundance store that's not far from our house and I like to go look at Read More

This week Sophie and I find ourselves on opposite ends of football fortune, so you're going to hear a lot of sympathizing, a lot of commiserating, and a better than average amount of celebrating. Plus, as you might expect, we offer our perhaps misguided but nonetheless enthusiastic analysis of the last play of the A&M / Alabama game. WE HAVE SOME THOUGHTS. There's also a good bit of Read More

I'm not even kidding that I was about to start this post off with a lament about the sad state of Aggie football and the fact that our starting QB has a broken hand. This is never great under any circumstance but especially not before you play Alabama. Then, as I was titling this post with "just when you think things can't get worse", the entire post deleted itself and all of Fashion Friday was Read More

Well, the Bulldogs and the Aggies played football this past weekend, and as you can imagine, only one of us is pleased with the outcome. We break down all of our respective feelings about the game (y'all may want to keep me in your prayers) before we move into our weekly Side Eyes and I See Yous. We also discuss Sophie's recent trip to the northeast, she offers some book recommendations, and Read More

Well, we've almost made it to October. And the weather did feel slightly better here this week even though I would still like about a twenty degree drop in temperatures. However, just losing the 98% humidity helped immensely and there was even a morning when I wanted a light jacket. Here are some cute things I found this week. 1. universal thread cable knit sweater vest I'm getting a Read More
