dreaming of an airstream

April 30th, 2009

Our recent camping trip has me dreaming of a pre-packed trailer awaiting my arrival home from the office – ready to drive off for the weekend, up the coast. Oh, to not have to remember the stove. Oh, to sleep on a warm bed instead of on hard, rocky ground. Oh, to be wind proof. […]

all camped out

April 30th, 2009

We had a windy fun-filled weekend camping at Sonoma State Beach with the kids’ favorite friends – Matthew and Toby.

my two favorite things: cooking and stitching

March 26th, 2009

Somehow, the cosmos aligned bringing me all sorts of wonderful things on my birthday. Some of those things were presents – a gift certificate for Anthropologie, my favorite store now that thrift stores are inconvenient (kids); a starter sewing kit, which considering I’ve been sewing just about all my life seems like a funny thing […]

If the sugary awesomeness in that last post didn’t rot your brain, maybe this will work. The band is named Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head. The song – Sophisticated Side Ponytail. I love that they look 12. natalie portman’s shaved head – sophisticated side ponytail from thatgo on Vimeo.

The Internets are alive with great things. Take this site, for instance, where you can make your own super hero. My alter ego, below: If you enjoyed that, here is a list of other sites your children will love and you will find amusing.
