My highlights: week 13

I downloaded the Maverick upgrade for my mac and as it turns out, it doesn’t support the PC livewriter program I use to blog.  So I am trying to sort out a new system.  I have close to zero tech skills so I have been teaching myself super basic css crap over the past few days and as a result this is the blog design I’m going with.  At least for now. Since I had a highlights post (from two weeks ago) in the works that already got deleted, I’m going to see how well… Read more >

The latest food discoveries

Baby (food) post coming ‘atcha.  If you have no interest, just close the browser. Here are a few new tricks and trials I have to share… -I’ve discovered a way to make apples (and hard/unripe pears) the perfect consistency for P to eat without the work of cooking them.  I just chop the fruit and freeze it (raw).  Once it’s been frozen for at least a day, I thaw it and voila!  It’s soft and semi-mushy and I can feed it to him straight away.  I have frozen fruit for two months and it still… Read more >

What I ate…a long time ago

Last week I took photos of my whole day of eats – something I rarely do anymore – and then I just forgot about it.

It’s pretty atypical for me to have oats in the mornings nowadays, so this creation is more of an anomaly than the norm.  I was in the mood for peanut butter but I used sunbutter instead because I’m still nervous about eating nuts when I’m around P.  Even… Read more >

My highlights: weeks 11 & 12

We finally have internet (FOURTH Comcast visit since moving…sooo…third time is not the charm).  Meaning this post is semi-current!  [Depeding on how long it takes me to write and publish] Where to begin!  It has certainly been a crazy April.  But I have to back up to the end of March first.  When we said goodbye to our (rental) house and moved 2 minutes south. We moved here when P was a mere 3 months old and now look at him!  Almost walking and ready to take the world by storm. I was in a… Read more >

Parts of Kyle’s birthday weekend

I took pics of the days surrounding Kyle’s 30th, but never shared them!  Never too late to celebrate?   Here’s the young man and his tower of 30 beers.   Kyle requested an al fresco themed birthday dinner, and since it was gorgeous weather it seemed like a brilliant idea.  We hit up the farmer’s market that day and hung out in the park with friends, soaking up the social scene.  It was a taste of what it to come (once the weather finally commits to warmth in entirety).  The above platter had some old… Read more >
