Find local food in your area,search your zip code! | By Jackie,on November 8th,2010 I’ve recently become friends with a mutual friend of friends. She has a fabulous blog. Well,technically 2 blogs! The idea of having sort of a “virtual”book club online for kids is so genius! I love it. I’m so excited to start getting involved with the crafts and activites that she will be posting to go along with each book,as we read each week. We loved reading The Mitten and The Hat from Jan Brett. I have yet to make mittens out of a wool sweater,but I sure do love the idea!!

We had an awesome summer. Just after I started this blog,I took the kids back to VA to visit all the grandparents,family &friends. Sophia and Michael were able to experience some time at a beautiful Waldorf camp program. —> We went to a real live county fair. Think Charlotte’s Web.

I’ve been told that weekly (or daily) journaling or even just notes about what we are grateful for can bring us back to the moments we love and appreciate the very most. Today I am grateful that my husband was able to enjoy a full five day weekend over 4th of July. It was a much needed break and time well spent.

(Michael just hangs out on my back in the Ergo carrier that we both love so much.) She is so excited to speak to the farmers and ask about what everything is. Today we saw watermelons,Israel melons,okra,onions,beets,lettuce,red bliss potatoes,a light green,round,ball-shape squash that I’m not sure of the name,yellow squash,zucchini,red tomatoes,yellow cherry tomatoes,plums,peaches,pecans,and even honey.
