After my HFCS tirade this morning, I made some green juice that I enjoyed with live entertainment. I continue to be amazed at how satisfying green lemonade is. I also continued to be amazed at how long a yellow, slippery piece of plastic can keep a child entertained. I had a meeting to go to … Read more
The kids were with Aunt Ellen today, so the only pics I took were of food. I think I’ll spice this post up with some oldies but goodies. Pears. Ava, age two, with a pair of pretzels boobs. A bowl of shriveled stuff. Maxine, shriveled. A banana spinach smoothie, with a little too much spinach. … Read more

I’m happy to report that my questionable run this morning was fabulous! 10.8 miles in 1:37:54, a 9:00/mi pace. We did a 6.5 mile loop and stopped back at the running store for water, and then went for another 4.3 mile loop. Between loops, my friend Shawn and I snacked on a couple of these … Read more
We hit a new park and playground today, to meet up with some homeschooling friends for a Summer Solstice gathering after lunch. Ava drove us there.
