Um, goats are silly

They thought I had corn. Apparently they were hungry. Each and every last one poked his/her little head out of the fence and gazed at me woefully. Lady, where’s the corn, eh? Sadly, I did not have corn. Just my trusty Nikon. More pics from our recent pumpkin-patch excursions.

Seasonal musings

Ah, fall. My favorite season. I can’t quite figure out why I embrace a season that’s followed so closely by brrr-freezing weather, but it might have to do with the bittersweet nature of it all. And the fact that, as much as I’m not crazy about 20-below, I’m also pretty […]

Togetherness

Way better than the pretzel stand in the mall, I tell ya This weekend will go down as one of my favorites, simply because the boys and I spent nearly the entire two days — together. Parenthood hasn’t been all that I imagined it would be. It’s been great, yes. […]

Me, blurry

This is what happens when you let some guy you work with take your camera and snap some pics. What was I thinking? There were beer glasses galore — and plenty of people drinking from them. And I hand over my baby? Not smart on my part. Still, I like […]

Shop ‘n gab with Tracy

Yum, yum, yum…spinach pie I haven’t done all that much shopping in 2005. At least not for myself. (For the boy, plenty!) So I was all geared up to head to the mall with Tracy the other night. We started out at Olga’s, where we dined and dished on all […]

So, does this seem fair?

I’m a nice enough person, but today, while checking around, I discovered that someone is using one of my photos on her site. With no credit given to me. I scoured for her email address so I could gently notify her that you’re supposed to ASK first, but came up […]

I hereby declare today Devin Day!

One year ago today, at this very same time, we were heading home from Detroit Metro with Devin in tow. He slept all the way home — then stayed up all night long! I can’t believe it’s been a year already. It goes by so fast. He seems so grown […]

Chicken and feta tostadas

What I love is when I find a recipe that includes all of the ingredients I already have in my house and is also easy to make. It’s like I want to bow down to the recipe gods. I was a bit skeptical of this concoction at first, and I […]

Girls’ night at Tokyo Grill

Cari’s vegetable udon I really should have snapped a pic of Laurel’s sushi too. It was very pretty. A gathering of girls on a Friday night. A little sushi (or, in my case, hibachi), a little wine, and a lot of chatter. T’was fun. I’m on my way back to […]

About Devin

Yes, Dev’s in the hospital. We’ve been told that odds are that this is a minor thing, a treatable infection. The problem is that they don’t know what caused the infection, so they haven’t determined the antibiotic that they can use to target it. As long as the swelling remains, […]

Oh, what to do…

I haven’t been as motivated to update here lately. A natural thing, I believe. There are ups and downs in everything. Even things you’re passionate about. I’ve picked up the camera a lot less often in the past seven days — and it’s been kind of freeing actually. I find […]
