… And Your Mama's Good Looking.

Dude… 5 Minutes for Mom is hosting a summertime photo contest in which they're giving away $500 for a great summertime photo entry… And as Austin City Limits is on my birthday weekend this year, and I'd like nothing more than to leave my husband here to *suffer* with the little Shakespeares while I bake away in the hot Texas sun listening to some really great music, I thought I'd throw my name in the hat and hopefully win a little traveling money.

So if you've got any of that good karma stuff lying about, could you send it on over to my house?

We're all out here.

(Oh! And coffee too, okay?)

      Sending all the good JUJU I have in your direction court!

      • Judith Shakespeare


        I love JUJU. Seriously.

    • Kim


      This is a fabulous photo! I love the colors and the softness of it.

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Thank you, Kim! It's definitely one of my favorites!

    • Lilacspecs


      Good luck on winning. Unfortunately, 500 USD is like 350 € over here or else I'd tell you to come visit. Oh and I hope those were those edible bubbles, otherwise your little one must have gotten a yucky surprise.

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Well… I could always sell a toddler or two for some traveling money to head your way… DEFINITELY something to consider.

    • Qweenie


      Good Luck!!

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Thanks, hon!

      I love that picture. It's fabulous.
      Good luck, I'd send you karma, but I don't have any.
      You know that disclaimer makes me want to find dancing bananas and put them all over here, right?
      Did P tell you I called?

      • Judith Shakespeare


        I LOATHE DANCING BANANAS. Enough said.

    • Elaine


      Hello winner! That's just gorgeous in every way!

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Thank you, Elaine!

    • suchlovelyfreckles


      The picture of course is awesome. But you've been told that I don't know how many times.
      So naturally you must win. Good vibes for you.

      As for the coffee, you'll have to get that somewhere else. No coffee from me. A cup of tea is all I can offer. :)

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Tea works for me…. although you may want to make mine a triple.

    • Christina


      I love this photo!! I hope you win love.

      • Judith Shakespeare


        Thanks, honey! I won't, of course, but it was nice to be selected as a finalist out of so many.

    • Rebecca (Ramblings by Reba)


      I'm a few days late and MANY dollars short on this.

    Hi! My name is Judith Shakespeare. Actually, no. No, it's not... My name is Courtney, but I’m also known to turn in the direction of a hollered mom, mommy, mama, or ma as well. For the past ten years, I have been married to an occasionally wonderful man with whom, thanks to a wonderful chemistry set purchased on eBay for a mere $8, I created three devilishly cute heathens: Little Man (9), That Middle One (4), and The Baby (2).

    Yes, that means that I am one of those often terrifying creatures known as “Breeders”; and, no, I didn’t need a license for that.

    I am your basic tattooed, liberal, slacker mom whose hobbies include (but are not limited to) rambling incoherently, expertly removing used bubblegum from Barbie’s hair, artistically glaring at little league parents, gossiping, protesting, and cooking a seven course meal while practicing global espionage in my favorite pair of Dolce pumps.

    Okay, I made that last one up… I’ve never made a meal with more than two courses in my life, but you get the point... continued
