No time

Virginia — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 07:22:34 +0000

This past week has been a complete mess in as far as getting things done. Much like the state of my kitchen after each mealtime these days. Just another thing (actually three times a day) to add to my To Do List. So much to do, so little time.

Pardon if things like the comments go a bit strange over the next day or so… I’m attempting to install a new comment management thingymajig which claims to be able to import all the existing comments and display them on here as if nothing ever happened… but we shall see. Fingers crossed that you see me the other side….

Sunscreens

I thought I’d pass this on- it’s a list of sunscreens ranked in order of safety in terms of best sun protection yet containing fewer potentially hazardous ingredients. I was surprised to learn that the brand that we use that is a popular one and recommended for children (Baby Blanket) actually ranked really badly for ingredients. I’m going to be switching to California Baby.

Also, you may have heard about Gwyneth Paltrow’s Vitamin-D-deficiency-related early stage osteopenia (early stage osteoporosis) already in the news but it’s certainly food for thought with regards to limited responsible sun exposure, even if you hate the woman.

Guilty pleasures

So this morning I turned on the TV and Dolly Parton was on Good Morning America and all that everyone needs to know is that I LOVE HER. She’s not even a guilty pleasure, I like her too much for that. Cliff Richard on the other hand, well he’s a guilty pleasure if ever there was one. I’m actually still in the closet a bit on this one, yes I kind of maybe like his music, but will I ever admit to it in real life… umm, probably never. Although this video of his I *WILL* admit to loving. It’s guaranteed to put a smile on my face whatever the weather. Maybe even a bit of laugh too. (It’s real, not a joke).

Now let’s not even talk about watching the current season of ‘The Bachelorette’…

Farmers Market

This morning at the farmers market we bought the tastiest strawberries and raspberries that there could ever be. A delicious way to start the weekend. © Originally published by Virginia Peach for Virginia Peach as Farmers Market. All rights reserved.

Things have been…

Virginia — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 07:06:15 +0000

Broken water heaters, flooded garages, small people now walking, babyproofing the house at a higher vertical level, running out of space on my hard drive, vacuuming up after three shedding cats, getting the air conditioning seen to, etc, etc. Things have been a bit busy of late.

But we did find a bit of time tonight for an early evening boat ride up to the diner at a nearby resort. Summer is hot but so far, fun.

Big Hits

We’ve now got to the stage where he refuses to take anything off a spoon so we’re gradually working our way through a variety of finger foods, finding out what does and doesn’t work for him. Ravioli proved to be a big hit tonight.

Looks like the Father’s Day gift was also a big hit too. I got back from the grocery store tonight to find him casting a line off the dock around the back of our house. I couldn’t be more pleased that he’s so pleased.

Happy Father’s Day.

Happy Father’s Day. You may only have been a Daddy for a little over a year, but already you’ve shown that you are going to be one of the great ones. xx

(Oh is there a story behind this picture, but I’ve filled up my hard drive so it’s going to have to wait until I have space for the photos.)

Ignore this post

I’m just testing to see how this audio thing works. But if you’re interested, the music is by Puffy Amiyumi and I thought it was the perfect soundtrack for a sunny morning. © Originally published by Virginia Peach for Virginia Peach as Ignore this post.
