nothing says happy earth day...
like poking a nesting goose in the butt with a stick. Or wasting a big batch of homemade yogurt, which were two things that happened. (don't worry- we told the boys to stop poking!)
Thankfully, I don't have bad seasonal allergies, but yesterday I woke up with itchy eyes and the sneezles, so I took a Claritin. I was in a sleepy fog all day. I made a batch of yogurt from my favorite local milk and left it on the counter to cool... all night long. I'm blaming it on the allergy. I'm not feeling at all sniffley today. Perhaps I'll attempt another batch.
We're planning something special over at the Noticing Project next week. Heather and I want you to Be Our Guest. We're betting you are noticing some fantastic things these days. Please share them with us!
And lastly, we (especially N) was thinking about you yesterday, our favorite little Earth Day baby. You're really not much of a baby anymore, huh? Hope you had a wonderful birthday! Maybe we'll Skype you later.
Take care, friends!

You know I was thinking the exact same thing today. The Earth day and poke in the butt thing... :)
Homemade yogurt sound divine. Mmm.

I'd love to be a guest - if I can figure out how to size my photos correctly. I'm a wee bit dumb when it comes to managing that. :(

That's a bummer about the yogurt.

Hi Alicia! Matthew would have loved to visit the goose. He went on a school field trip to the local Bird Park on Tuesday and had great fun. The electricity was turned off in my daughter's school for a couple of hours to mark Earth Day. And it was during her cooking test for home ec. Fortunately she was deep frying on a gas cooker :) Hope you're enjoying spring!

Hi. Saw your comment on the quilt giveaway on Simplify and noticed you were from Kansas City and that you shop at Sarah's and Harpers. I'm from KC too. You have a great blog. Glad I found you! The noticing project is really neat! Have a great day!

Oh I love that picture of M... she looks so young!! :) And she's still basking in the glow of *finally* being a 4-year old, so a Skype would be fun! Sorry to hear about your yogurt... I've done things like that & it's so frustrating.
