Check This Out!

My friend, from like elementary school, is one of the most Raw, Real food cookers, bakers and eaters out there. I'm guessing she has been asked "How do you do it?!?" more than once, so she finally started a blog. Susie, (Susan? I don't know what grown ups call her) has skills in the kitchen and makes almost everything (even her own jello and ginger ale) from scratch using as pure to the earth ingredients she can find. Her blog is awesome because a) She doesn't claim to know it all, or be the best, or have all the answers or that she's %100 right all the time. b) She has really good, practical ideas. c). She has put her time in reading and researching raw and real foods, so I trust her. And d). She's a money saver with the best of us, so I know that when she talks about a product she has looked around to make sure she's getting a good price. She also loves the Lord, loves her husband, loves her kids (and loves Fair Trade), so she has her priorities straight too. If eating organically, raw or fair interests you at all check out her blog One Mother's Kitchen.

I would love the Pears I think... so funny though, the 1st blog of her's that I read has the words... "Oh and the glorious banana..." Not a phrase that would ever come out of my mouth :P

Thanks for the encouragement, Sarah! It's been way more fun doing this than I thought it would be. And now that I have a blog, I've already been way better at reading everybody else's. Love your post about Martha. What I've always thought but never said outloud.

Oh, and I tried the "Susan" thing fresh out of highschool, but it was just weird. I'm still Susie, or Sooz. =)

Thanks Sarah...I have a whole list of books that I need to read now about how to change my eating habits. I feel a little overwhelmed at the moment. But I'm really excited about your friends blog. I need to see real practical things that I can to to start implementing those changes.

In a Nut Shell...

Saturday afternoon, 2pm, got home from Costco and thought I might be going into labor. Troy woke up from his nap at 3:30, sensed what was going on and was not too happy about it at all. Thinking it was pretty early, but not want wanting to take any chances, we left for the hospital a bit before 4 o'clock Yep, too early. Walked the halls for an hour which produced more of these... Which felt like this... And at 8:42pm they led to this... We are so thrilled to add a precious baby girl to our family We love you Mia Joy! (7lbs 2oz, 18.5" long)

I know that people come from good places and the intentions behind their comments are never bad, and sometimes they're actually funny, but sometimes I just want to say, um, really? Is that the BEST thing you can think of to say? Here are some of my faves from last week... "I'm going to un-friend you on facebook because you do not look like you just had a baby a week ago." - sorry? "What's her name? ... Oh I know SO MANY Mia's. Like, SO many." - great. "Are you guys finished yet? Is there some literature out there I can get for you (to teach you about prevention)?" (This one is my favorite) - "I'm the oldest of three and I am SO glad my parent's didn't have a fourth." - um... okay. This is the one I hear from almost everyone, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say, I just get it A LOT, "Two boys and two girls? Oh, the perfect family." Does that mean before Mia we had an imperfect family? I also hear endle

Crafty Me

I'm pretty excited because I'm not crafty, at all, but when I saw this idea on my new favorite crafty blog I got all giddy because I thought, "I can do that!" and so I did. And since my kids ARE crafty, go figure, I had all the stuff to make them on hand - yippee! All I had to do was buy the goodies that make the wings, which only cost me a dollar (thank you Dollar Tree!). I put them in the kid's little Easter buckets. I hope they like them as much I do. :-)
