Vermont
Educator, mama to two small ones, unabashed lover of tree climbing, striped socks, salty chocolate and snow days. Creator of Alphabet Glue, an e-magazine for families.
Interests: I am a longtime Northern California girl, now unexpectedly making a home in the Boston area. I sew a little, knit a bit more than that, and bake compulsively. This is a little more complicated than it used to be, as our family is learning to live gluten-free after our daughter's recent celiac diagnosis. I am a gardener, an unapologetic multi-tasker, an enthusiastic tidepooler and an armchair ornithologist. I'm doing my very best to raise my children to see the value in being fiercely independent in spirit, and community minded in practice.

I think that I ordered them from this place:

Tutorial: Easy Pocket Pouch.
I've been making these little pouches off and on for the past couple of years and recently started stitching them up again here and there when I have a few moments and want a quick project to do. They are super fast and easy and perfect for slipping a little surprise inside and giving away ...
How wonderful! I believe that I got the snaps here: http://www.snapsource.com/store/snapcolors.php

It should work just fine!
Kitchen Table Science: Lava Lamps.
I will begin by acknowledging that until now, this has not been the sort of blog where I exhort you to go out and purchase a box of Alka-Seltzer post haste. But folks, that is all about to change. I'm not sure how many of you are already familiar with Steve Spengler Science, but if you are ...

I'm pleased to report that things are going remarkably well on the garden front. For the past few years, I've had community garden plots which are great for purposes of growing space and peeking at what other people are up to, but less good for things like remembering to water and weed in a ti...
Yes!

I hadn't been, and put down a thick layer of compost last week. They do seem a little bit better now, so I'm feeling hopeful!
You know that they say that if you go out and get rid of every snail that you can find three nights in a row you should be able to get them all :)

That is what I want- enough beets for salads!

It's starting to seem like maybe it was a nutritional deficit of some kind. I put a bunch of compost down as mulch, and the other beets seem to be doing a little bit better now. Fingers crossed!

Right? I planted my stuff way too close together and then have been making salads as I thin plants :) Totally my go-to strategy from now on!

A Quick Note About Wonky Interwebs.

I will! Soon. I've just been crazy busy with family vacation, moving apartments, and studying for my Mass. teacher licensing exams. I'm hoping to be back this week though :)
A Little Bit Here, A Little Bit There.
I had originally planned to try to work on my new quilt some each day, the way that I did with the last one that I made. That worked out well; the piecing work never felt overwhelming and I developed a rhythm with it that gradually built until the top was all of a sudden finished. ...
Thank you, Caroline. I am staying in Belmont. I moved to a new place a few weeks ago, but am hoping I can just stay put for at least the next year or two!
