WIP

I am using these for a very scrappy project and loving the result. I think it will take me a few more months to finish so far so good! -kb

harvest

We are slowly becoming urban farmers.  This weekend we picked our first broccoli and I couldn't be happier!  Broccoli is my favorite veggie and Luca actually eats it (minor miracle for a 2 1/2 year old so I hear).  Has been fantastic to have something in the garden growing in winter as well.  Completely organic (pesticide care of Birkenstock (I hand picked off the grubs and squashed them with my garden shoes)) we haven't eaten it yet, saving it all for a big family dinner on Tuesday night.

Our lemons are doing fantastic, the passion fruit vine is dripping with fruit that I am hoping will be ready next weekend.  Now on to more adventurous ideas...chickens.  Any tips you can share?  I've convinced my husband, now I've got all the logistics to figure out like coop, breed etc.  Ideas? -kb

*Oh and this is my first post from our new I-MAC.  Yes we did the big switch. Thanks for the feedback!

lovely necklace

I am often reading blogs when I come across adorable items that I add to my wish list...very rarely do I actually love something so much I go through the motions to buy online. Usually I am deterred by the shipping costs to Australia. When I saw this necklace by the very talented Jess, I splurged. They arrived in the post this week and I love them (them...yes, I had to get the matching earrings too). -kb
*our computer officially died over the weekend...now the big question do we covert to MAC???
