For the whole of June and July I am soccer mom...I don't like that I'm this van driving cliche but I am. It's ok though, my children are really loving soccer this year.
I'm trying to come up with some new healthy snack ideas to counter the amount of junk food tempting us this time of year. Too many hotdogs and popsicles people! I'd love to hear your ideas.
I'm sewing Tommy a quilt. I'd said I'd have it done in time for summer..only two weeks to go.
This article from Florence written for Sew Mama Sew about feet for sewing machines is very informative and delightfully charming, as all her posts are. OK totally unrelated picture I know.
Finally, thank you Donna and Sara of Kindred Crafters for my recent awe-summm award. Right back at ya girls. Their blog is beautiful, go check out Sara's new etsy shop and 100th post giveaway. In return I must tell you seven things that make me awe-summm. Hmmm. How about just seven things? Of course I'm supposed to seven more people yada yada yada...feel free to join in dear readers, for you are all awe-summm. Please can I stop saying that now?
- My children are children, never kids, for they are baby goats.
- My part time job has been a bit full time lately.
- I am the last person on earth to discover Flight of the Conchords. Oh how these guys make me laugh.
- I lied to my children about being allergic to dogs. I just don't want one. Overheard: Tommy to Daddy "Daddy, when Mummy dies can we get a dog?"
- My last name has 15 letters, thank you Greek husband.
- My children learned to spell their last name by singing it to the tune of "Sur le pont d'Avignon".
- I have danced on the real bridge at Avignon and nearly passed out shortly after with heat stroke.
Have a lovely weekend!
