More fun in the sun this past weekend. Im not a fan of the sun. Never have been (well, there was that one summer in my early twenties...) and its a good thing because Felix is very keen on applying...
Never too many pickled items in our refrigerator. This week: eggs, carrots, and bread and butter radishes (so good!). Waiting for the garden to supply me with lots of cucumbers and tomatoes so I can ...
Dustin introduced Felix to water balloons this weekend. He was amazed; although, he didnt like it one bit when they popped. And he was even more bummed upon finding out that mama couldnt fix the situ...
Lately, when I start to notice feelings of fear or anxiety creeping in about having two little ones 27 months apart in age, I look at these two precious photos. The sweetness and pure love captured t...
My two favorite people arrive home later today after five days away visiting Ds parents. Phew! Five days was a looong time to be away from my little guy for the first time ever. However, it was a won...
My motto today: When all else fails, build a fort. I have a nasty cold and Felix has been feverish on and off since yesterday morning, so were doing our best to find ways to stay entertained while sp...
{this moment} A Friday ritual started by SouleMama. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember...
Well folks, it seems I have I found a new cookbook to be added to my list of favorites. Honestly, I havent been keeping such a list, but Im going to start now and The Farm by Ian Kuaner is...
We found another great swimming and picnicking spot this weekend. I say we, but actually Dustin gets all the credit. He did the finding and the motivating. It was a lovely place -- the water was warm...
This week has been all about playing and "making a mess". Felix has played banjo --I made him one out of cardboard and it was quite a hit. He keeps saying, "Mama made it", and by ...
Thank you all so much for the sweet comments about Mortimer. It has been very comforting to read them and think about him. He was such a special cat and were glad we got to spend so many wonderful ye...
Sigh. My little family has heavy hearts and teary eyes right now after having to say goodbye to our sweet snowcat Mortimer yesterday morning. As many of you know he was in our lives for over 15 years...
Hi there, I finally got around to snapping a couple of photos of one of my latest projects. Just like the hanging planter bandwagon I jumped on a few weeks ago, I couldnt resist giving the tree stump...
As a matter of fact, he likes to experience it with each of his senses...while wearing his pajamas.
It is hard to fathom that this month marks the ten year anniversary of the best (and longest) adventure I have ever taken. Ten years ago Dustin and I were just returning from traveling throughout Sou...
There was... a little sun. a little rain. a chard harvest. a much loved visitor. pancakes for breakfast. some guitar played especially for our favorite little music lover. a first bike ride! a pot of...
Yesterday evening Dustin took Felix to a nearby park for some raucous play and dinner at a food truck rodeo that was happening there. Durham is such an awesome town for so many reasons, and the fact ...
One of my best mama friends just passed this along. For kicks, I thought Id share it in this space. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ---------...
Well, folks, Ill admit it. A while back I jumped on the hanging planter bandwagon. What a simple thing to make and the completed project is very satisfying indeed, so I think Ill stay put on this par...
Last week Felix and I took a trip to visit some of our favorite people in Philadelphia. It was perfect. We got to see nearly everyone we planned to see, we met a new baby boy, I had a fantastic...
20 weeks today. 20 more (give or take) to go. xox, L.
Yesterday (yep, on Easter) I celebrated my 36th birthday. It was super low-key and sweet, just the way I wanted it to be. We spent the morning lazing around on blankets in the sunshine and sharing a ...
As much as I wanted to try dyeing eggs with natural dyes we kept it very simple this year. Perhaps we can experiment with using beets and cabbage and blueberry juice as dyes once Felix is a little ol...
A Friday ritual started by SouleMama. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. Have a lovel...
I have been dying to make my own fruit leather so today I followed this recipe and gave it a whirl. Despite being very keen on making and sharing some strawberry fruit leather with Felix as an aftern...
Hello out there. Im back from a trip to see family. It was nice to get away, but Im sooo glad to be home where I can sleep in my own bed and putter around in the backyard witnessing all...
This morning my friend sent me this beautiful photo of more than 200, 000 galaxies captured by a European telescope! So many stars...so amazing.
Eons ago I did a wonderful photography swap with my friend Molly. She kindly asked if I would be open to her hanging a couple of my holga shots in Delancey, the restaurant she and her husband Brandon...
