The Quick Brown Fox

So get this. You know where you get typewriter ribbon? Amazon.  That’s right.  It took like two days and here I am with enough typewriter ribbon for six bucks to last a lifetime.  A lifetime!  Eight spools!  Can I tell you how thrilled I am that I didn’t have to drive to Essex (twice) to find it?

Early To Bed

School starts again tomorrow!  We are so ready to get back to it though we did have a great break hanging out and doing not much of anything.  One of these days I’ll make a bucket list of all the things we want to do.  We didn’t make it to the aquarium or to any of the other places that were bumping around in my head.  Read the rest of this entry »

Good Day

Easter 2012, Cylburn Arboretum. We hunted for eggs, had a little hike, a picnic and enjoyed the terrific weather.  Dinner was slow roasted leg of lamb, roasted asparagus, parsley(ed?) potatoes and strawberry shortcake for dessert.  I’m coming out of the best kind of food coma.  How was your day?

Easter Preparations

We’re almost ready!  I have to stuff a few eggs but we should be good to go.  The girls were super excited at bedtime tonight.  I know they can’t wait to hunt for eggs in the morning.

Lamb’s on the menu and maybe a picnic.  We might just get to see a tulip or two tomorrow after all.  Maybe I should check the weather?  I’m looking forward to big smiles, fancy dresses and some low key quality time.  Sounds doable, right?

Almost Easter

Easter is exciting around here.  Mainly because we have family come into town but we’re having fun doing a little bit of decoration too.  Fresh Market, hands down, has the best selection of Easter treats for a super market.  That’s where we found these little cuties.  Sugar eggs!  The girls love them.   Read the rest of this entry »

Tie Dye!

So you totally can dye eggs using ties.  I know, it sounds crazy but it’s kind of neat.  I posted this link on the facebook page a while back and we finally got around to trying it.   Read the rest of this entry »

Weekending

We did it up right this time.  No birthday parties or conferences or anything.  Well, you know what we did yesterday.    Today we got a late start… Chase didn’t get out of bed until 9:00!  9:00!  That might be normal at your house but definitely not here.  Even Avery slept until 7:30 which isn’t sleeping in but isn’t waking up early either.  I’ll take it.

Find!

Today was supposed to be better! And it was… mostly.  Ben took the girls out this morning and I had a great visit with my good friend Erin and her sweet little boy. Plus, they brought delicious spanakopita and hummus.  What a nice treat!  And the girls came back with just enough time to have a quick play date with JJ.   Read the rest of this entry »

Spring Break? Yes, Please!

My viewing selections for tonight include two old episodes of 30 Rock, two episodes of Jacques and Julia Cooking At Home and two episodes of The Golden Girls because it’s been that kind of day.  Emotionally I feel a little stretched a little thin.   Read the rest of this entry »

Paper Play

So I think I’m going to get rid of all the books I have with ideas about things to make out of paper because apparently my kids don’t need the inspiration.  I did groceries yesterday and Chase promptly commandeered a bag.   Read the rest of this entry »
