camboodle – 8 mar 2011
Last night, Camille and I set up her Camboodle Etsy store. And she’s already sold three pouches! She still has about eight more to list, but taking photos and writing descriptions is time-consuming, so she’s only adding about four a day right now. I am sure it will slow down soon, but boy this has
camboodle – 7 mar 2011
Camille and I have been working out the details for months, and now she finally has an Etsy store, called Camboodle. So far, she’s put just a few pouches up there, but there’s more to come.

Rob tried to fix Chloe’s light saber, but it was a lost cause. Instead, he took out some of the electronics and showed her how it *should* work.
room of the month – 5 mar 2011
March is Chloe’s room. What a disaster it was! Thankfully, she was very helpful this time and didn’t disolve into an overwhelmed puddle of crying girl There are still some odds and ends that need to be tackled, but the room is clean and organized!

Photo Friday: New Orleans Riverfront Park
On our first night and then our first morning in New Orleans we wandered along in Woldenberg Park, along the Mississippi between Canal Street and Cafe du Monde.

I headed to the eye doctor and got glasses today. I can now see what I’m typing. Sweet.
compost – 1 mar 2011
We generate a lot of compost in our daily cooking. We’ve been using a “compost pile” for probably almost 10 years now, but I think we have yet to actually use the compost that we create. I see composting as a way to keep the trash volume lower and less stinky …
brewing storm – 28 feb 2011
The much anticipated storm rolled in hours after it was predicted to arrive. And then, while intense, was over quickly. When the retaining wall at our old house collapsed, I had worried that I would never again enjoy a storm… but, once again, I do.

vase – 25 feb 2011
Today was a pleasant day. I worked but was not anxious or worried. I was relaxed. The house was picked up a bit. The girls were content. It was pizza night.
Photo Friday: South of the Border
If you’ve ever driven on I-95 in the Carolinas, you’ve seen the billboards. Almost as prevalent as the signs for Lookout Mountain, they grab your attention. On our trip to Wilmington, NC, to pick up my new car last week, I gave in to the signs, and we stopped…at South of the Border, “Americaโs favorite

beach – 20 feb 2011
Knowing that it was going to be a cooler day and that the girls were hoping to go to MagiQuest, I took off for a morning walk on the beach. I was the only person out on the gorgeous beach. Oh how I love the beach!
