At this moment
2It’s 6:07. It’s lightly raining outside. It’s been kind of threatening to rain all day, but mother nature was kind and didn’t dump it on us when we walked over to the Farmer’s Market, or when we went out to… Read more ›
What I’ve been up to
2Hello there. I feel like I haven’t posted in a while. Is that true? I don’t know. What have I been doing? A lot of crafting and sewing. In the past two weeks I’ve made: 4 fabric belts, 15 reversible… Read more ›

Books I’ve read
1These posts is usually “Books I’ve read this month”, but I’m behind. So here’s what I’ve read in the last couple months. Momfulness: Mothering with Mindfulness, Compassion, and Grace by Denise Roy: This was really good, though I can’t remember… Read more ›
