Rather than a butterfly. What? Moths are cool too.
So. My wee ones are getting older. And more social. Well, at least the boy.
The girl inherited the nonexistent social gene that her father and I have and isn’t that keen on playing with others. She has a few friends she plays with, and she does *mostly* [...]
Mmmm. Tomato.
Last night I drafted a pattern for a breezy summer tank. And it worked!! Yeah for measuring! (Forgive the terrible photo… it’s really hard to get a good picture in the mirror. Especially when someone smeared yogurt all over it.)
This used to be my best friend’s grandma’s curtains. Add a little ribbon and badda [...]
This is one MOTHER of a quilt.
Made up *almost* entirely of scraps, pieces of old clothing & some sheets, with a fleece backing. It’s comfy!!
And now I’m so sick of working on it I can’t bring myself to quilt it. Plus, its gigantasmic. There is no way all that bulk will fit in my [...]

The kind of crying where you start laughing midway through because you really can’t think of a reason that you are crying except that your oldest child, who you still [...]

My horoscope this am:
You are less motivated now by traditional success than you are by uncovering a deeper meaning to your life. For the next 7 weeks Mars moves through your 8th House of Intimacy and Transformation, coercing you to step into the shadows of your own mind in order to reinvent yourself and make [...]
Ozzie is off track and full of mischief. My house is littered with bits of cardboard, tape, books, stuffed animals, weapons and whatever else my little hurricane gets into. (He is also spending a lot of time cleaning!)
Last night, he put the finishing touches on a cardboard clubhouse.
This was one of said cleaning sessions. Apparently [...]
The other night Ivy was rummaging through my scraps of silky fabric and made herself a beautiful outfit. Soon I was being recruited to photograph her fashion show, where she would “do pretty things!”. This seemed to involve a lot of twirling and looking off into the distance while blinking those big eyes, but [...]
When exactly is allergy season over? Here in the Central Valley, we have every allergen known to man, flying around and settling in the great big basin that is our home. Orchards? Check. Fields full of hay, alfalfa, corn, routinely poisoned sprayed with irritating (and no doubt carcinogenic) pesticides & herbicides? Check. Regular old ragweed, [...]
