Thanksgiving makes me sentimental, which is why I thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane. When I was 20 I bought my first car, well jeep. I adored my jeep. I soon regretted getting dark green (wishing I had chosen red), but I loved the sunny tan interior. It had…

Baby Ginger
Ginger was born at home on Thursday, August 4th. She was almost eight pounds—bigger than her two sisters were. Zoe and Ashley were such big helpers. They filled the birthing pool with warm water (barely in time!) and brought me drinking water with a straw. Andy rubbed my back and comforted me. I had three…
Nine months photos!
I first met SarahKate at a homeschooling party in December of 2007, and we have been friends ever since. Her two sweet girls are almost the same ages as Zoe and Ashley. SarahKate is a henna artist who published her first book this year, and it is incredibly beautiful. In other countries henna (which is…

Cherry’s Homemade Gluten-Free Dog Food
Above: Cherry, in her favorite spot on the porch, basking in the sun. We take our dog to a holistic vet, and he insists that cooked real food is better for our dog than “dog food.” He says that dog food is so overly processed that no nutritional value remains, which is why they have…

Hey guys! I’m writing to you from sunny lovely Florida, where we’re visiting my mom near Boca Raton. It’s been about 90 degrees every day, but it isn’t humid here yet, and there’s such a nice breeze—It feels amazing. We are in love with Deerfield Beach. And I’m thinking of buying stock in zinc for…
Getting Ready for Little B
When I posted my 6 months photo I said that I would tell you how we are “preparing” for the new baby next time. I have to use quotes when I say “preparing” because we aren’t doing much at all to get ready for little B. The biggest purchase we made was this car seat,…
Citrus Quinoa Salad
Last weekend we had some crazy weather, though not uncommon for this area. Saturday was the start of the farmers market, and the warmest day we’ve had yet this year. It was sunny, not windy for a change, and 70 degrees. Just lovely. Which meant that everyone was at the Boulder farmers market. It was…
Chicken Enchiladas with Nacho Cheese by Go Dairy Free
I’m crazy for my new tortilla recipe. First I used it to make wraps , then fajitas, and now these yum-o enchiladas with nacho cheese sauce from the cookbook, Go Dairy Free. They were really easy because I had the chicken leftover from the day before, so all that was left was to make the…
