I’m not quite sure where I read it, but a mother wrote about her need to craft daily to keep her sanity and her sense of self. I can completely relate to this. I love my time creating, but don’t quite get to it daily. I do, however, read everyday. I have always needed to [...]

CSA report and food
We’re all on the mend now. Ruby’s tooth is half-way through the gum. Her teeth are ridiculously slow. John and I are back to normal. We had a restful weekend. John planned to go mountain biking on father’s day, but decided to just take it easy at home instead since he wasn’t feeling 100% yet. [...]

CSA report
Oh, it has been a week around here. One of Ruby’s 2 year molars is breaking through which makes for lots of crabbiness. There have been messed up meals, struggles, and just a general sense of frustration around here. Thursday John came home from work early with the flu. He slept as soon as he [...]

Here is what we got this week

link love
A lovely spring image I found. Makes me want to travel to Europe. We’ve been enjoying some gorgeous weather here, promising that spring is coming, but the forecast calls for snow (!) this weekend. Sigh.
Just a quick post to share some finds on the internet:

Little Chef
Ruby and I made pizza dough a few days ago from our new cookbook that I love. I’m sure she will grow to love it as well. We topped our pizzas with mozzarella, some herbs, tomato sauce, and, Ruby’s favorite, olives.
Enjoy the pictures. Ignore the bad lighting.

happy heart day
We had a wonderful Valentine’s Day here. I made a few simple gifts for the family, mostly so that I could enjoy some crafting time. For Ruby, I embroidered this shirt. I got the pattern from the Stitch-It Kit which I like a bunch. I hope Smartypants doesn’t see this though…she is a master embroiderer. [...]
