I love to read My Many Colored Days to my girls. Dr. Suess can get anoying to read (over and over like kids love), but this one does not bother me. I like Go, Dog, Go, but not again and again. One Fish, Two Fish is fun, but not again and again. My Many Colored Days, [...]

crazy busy
Posted in off topic on June 25, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I think every single post could be titled “crazy busy”. How is that for creativity?
We’ve been: cooking, baking more bread, two family reunions, yard sale this weekend, spring cleaning (yeah, a season late on that one), theatre camp, helping my Mother-In-Law get her place ready to sell, and cleaning my parent’s business out. I’ve also [...]
temptation
Posted in food, tagged boule, sourdough on June 22, 2009 | 3 Comments »
This is destroying my diet. All the running I am doing has been counteracted by crusty sourdough with homemade apple butter. I’ve been working with cheap white flour until I get used to how it is supposed to work, then I will start grinding my own whole wheat and start all over experimenting again. Why is it, again, that [...]
does it matter?

I find myself getting a bit ticked off this afternoon, combing mashed potatoes out of the dog’s hair. I went to the bathroom during lunch, should have known better.
“Why can’t food stay on the plate, or least the table?” I asked my girls this over and over. How is it that a mother can turn [...]

at the zoo. It seems that anytime I think I will bring the kids to the zoo, it rains. Our zoo is over an hour away, thankfully there are other indoor things to do in the area.
This last time, we waited it out and went in the afternoon after the rain blew through. We had arrived [...]
real food

Jenny over at the Nourished Kitchen recently cited me as one of her top ten under-appreciated real food bloggers. (blush) Me? I really just started with an adoption blog and fell in love with the flavors of real food along the way. Then the real foods started making us feel better and healthier so I write [...]
running my….

Well, let’s just say I am trying to run. It’s good for a person to exercise. I’ve successfully added Yoga into my routine and I feel it when I miss a class. This week I started running.
I think I am going to die
Okay, I’m kidding about that…mostly. During my first mile run I was wondering [...]
salmon supper

We love to eat fish…well, everyone but Jane. She finds that if she puts a piece of fish with a vegetable or two on her fork it is tolerable. Yeah, my kids mix things with vegetables to make them tolerable.
We usually have fish once a week and this week we had salmon. I tried to cook it [...]
