Gi just went down for her am nap, and I'm cleaning up the detritus from a busy, but great, weekend. On Friday, E surprised me with dinner and a Margaret Cho concert for our anniversary. She was amazing as always, and then we went out to my brother's fondue place for dessert. It was the first time we've ever gone, and it was pretty tasty. Saturday ( Read more... )

Gi's down for a nap and once she wakes up we'll go and pick up the chicken leg bands I ordered from the feed store. It's still brutally hot, but I nearly went crazy locked up here with the ac, so we gotta get out for at least a few minutes - leg bands, then maybe stop at the ice cream shop, and then take a swim. I'll be very happy when the temps ( Read more... )

E has had awful insomnia the past few nights, and he managed to sleep tonight, but of course now I can't ( Read more... )

We may not be making a fortune, but we've got the fame, apparently. We made the Sunday NY Times...apparently E and I are on the front of the travel and leisure section of tomorrow's paper or some such...look for the article/picture on the West Windsor Farmer's Market. :)

I was beating my self up b/c Gi hasn't napped yet but I guess a few errrands on no nap won't kill her - she would have slept in the car regardless ( Read more... )

Haven't updated here in a while, though I've been trying to post to the big blog at least twice a week. Just got back from a trip to the oil change place down the street - I figured going in the pouring rain would mean no wait, and I was right, even if I am a bit soggy now ( Read more... )
