Saturday Surfing

Finds of the Week:

  • Avocado and cucumber gazpacho, Running With Tweezers   — I HAVE to make this!
  • Google’s impressive healthy food program, Food Politics — Really interesting.  I like the vending machine pricing strategy: “one cent per gram of sugar, two cents per gram of fat, four cents per gram of saturated fat, one dollar per gram of trans fat”
  • How the South taxes, Washington Post Blogs: Ezra Klein — one of my high school friends posted this on Facebook and I think it’s very enlightening. Sometimes we talk about how much we miss Texas’ no state income tax, and then I see things like this.
  • A Mama’s Skirt, Dig This Chick — I really enjoy this mama-blog.  Beautiful pictures of her two girls and their life in Montana.  This particular link goes to a nice little poem, but it’s worth surfing the site, I promise.
  • New regulations for food, beverage advertising toward children, Los Angeles Times

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
