April 22nd, 2009I’m sure some of you will have seen this around the Internets, but it reminded me of my dad who doesn’t read all the same Blogs I do. Enjoy. An 8mm stop motion, filmed in 1965 when the producer was 15 years old.

We are definitely enjoying having a porch in the back yard. Oh that, and the heat. Stella and Will spent a few hours hunting for insects and then inspecting their victims when we got home from school. I taught them how to run the net through bushes and grass to get the bugs to fall […]
Today was the second annual Trike-a-thon at KNS. The kids were instructed to bring their decorated vehicle and helmet this afternoon. Rumor on the playground was that most parents barely remembered to bring bikes, today, much less break out the decorations. But, they turned out. At high noon, the kids took to the 10 foot […]

The kids’ pasta was accompanied by clown faced salads of salmon (mouth), mushroom (nose), black berries (eyes), and red pepper (ears). Arugula Pesto – 1 bulb […]

It was a sweltering 92 degrees in San Francisco, today, and allegedly 95 in my neighborhood. Needless to say, my NoCal children are dying. Especially the kid who told me a few weeks ago when it was only 72 degrees, “Mom, is this what fire feels like?” So, aside from reapplying sunscreen and sitting about […]
means not crying when you scrape your arm on the concrete slide, even if it hurts and you swear you’re now missing 1/4 of your arm. Being the mom also means looking enthusiastic when your 4 1/2 year old son excitedly asks you to do it again. And again. But, being the mom, you’ll from […]
Great instructional video from Curbly on dying eggs using natural ingredients.
Facebook is a problem for me. I have no self control. And lots of friends who work next to ovens. All of this explains why at 8:30 PM my kids are bathed and in PJs (it takes time for the dough to rise between rests) but still running about the house with unbrushed teeth like […]
Why, it is a new, real DNS! For a limited time, diego.org/sarah will continue to redirect you over to the new DNS, but if you come here by manually typing in the url, you might start weaning yourself from diego.org. Note: There is only one S in MamaSewing… because the proper 2 felt redundant.
