Henry's been practically begging for a Jedi Robe for, oh I don't know, about the last six months. His friend Jake had a birthday party on Saturday and so we decided that semi-matching Jedi robes were the way to go. They absolutely could not be the same color because (shame on me) they wouldn't be…

 Homemade Fish Taco's from this months MS Everyday Food (on the cover.) Quick and easy, only about 10 minutes to make.  You should totally make them for dinner tonight. We might just have them again! Happy Monday! xo

 and we celebrated by making fish taco's and going to the beach. I finally got Charlie to the Dr. and this monkey weighs about 14 lbs 10 oz. I can't remember the exact height. It was a beautiful day until we actually got to the beach and it was chilly and overcast.   Much too cold…

My sister & her husband (we'll call him Rick) are in town for a few days. They knew how badly I had been wanting to get our little backyard in order (weeded, cleaned-up, and finally move the bucket of wheat that has been sitting out there for 3 months, etc.,.) and took it upon themselves…

Have you ever bought something based on it's awesome packaging? I did this week. I couldn't resist this green vintage ice-cream meets it's-a-small-world packaging.

This sad, little rug hasn't seen much progress since just before Easter. If you remember, I was going to make a basket for the children, but it just didn't work…

The weekend…already? The weather has been ridiculously good here in LA. We have been to the park every single afternoon for hours on end.  We played Star Wars: We went on lots of walks in our neighborhood: Everything is in bloom! We spotted this tree house (so awesome! I want one!):  and this house (I want it, too!) It's dreamy.…

 Did you all have a nice Easter? Peter & Jean invited us over for dinner, which was scrumptious. The Moores' brought a bunny cake. I made a pound cake the day before, let it chill overnight and then, using Chris' dremel tool, sculpted the cake into a bunny. It's covered in a few layers of…

I've been making noodles and thinking about 'ca-noodling' and wondering if that's even a word and if it relates to noodles at all, so I checked. It doesn't. The urban dictionary says, "snuggling, kissing, heavy petting, making out." Maybe I should do a post about that instead. Oh la la!!  When I had Charlie last…
