As I look forward to having another baby in a few weeks (holy crap FOR REALZ??), I remember what it was like to have the first Kidlet. I was kind of a basket-case to be honest. I had little to no experience with kids and really had little to no experience taking care of anything…
***** So let’s talk about what’s missing in this picture… Yeah, those would be tail feathers, which are currently all over the damn chicken run, making it look like someone got attacked. Also missing from this scenario? EGGS! I guess it’s official then. My chickens are molting. WTF. Don’t get me wrong, I love…
You all know how this is my absolute FAVORITE time of year. Despite the fact that it was about 100 freakin’ degrees here the past few days (omgsuckstobe29weekspregnant) we managed to sneak out over the weekend and do one of my favorite fall activities. APPLE PICKING! One would think that being in apple country it…
Seriously, is there a mom out there who didn’t think when they first got pregnant that they would be some crazy wonderful mother of the year all the time? I thought that staying at home meant I would have time to clean, sew, cook and nurture the little creature that my husband and I had…
So today is my SITS day! I’m so excited for you all to stop by and say hi! Come on in and take a look around the ol’ homestead, it’s a pretty cool place to hang. We do a lot of cooking around these parts, as well as picture taking, farming fails, farming wins (!!)…
So I haven’t written about this yet because it’s just been too sad. Ok that’s not really true, I just haven’t really had the time or the desire to talk more about it… but suffice it to say, some days, urban farming isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. About a year ago, I got…
Hey, have you noticed that it’s summertime? Well, since most of the country seems to be in the grip of a hellacious heat wave, and given that it’s almost August and kids around here will be going back to school soon, I’m sure you had an idea. With summer in full swing and the days…
Some times, it’s good to be a member of a tribe… A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to have dinner with the Trend Tribe, as guests of the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel. We were treated to an unparalleled evening of food, wine and stunning views from the restaurant Raya, the brainchild of famed chef,…
Hi! How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was awesome, despite a little jaunt over to urgent care (yay allergies, asthma and some nasty bronchitis thing that I have). The weather was sublime, the pollen wasn’t THAT bad, there were a few parties to go to… yup pretty good stuff all around. I also got to work…
