Hello! How was your weekend?  Ours was great.  We had good weather for once, so we headed out to the zoo and found the most amazing playground inside (perhaps that warrants a post next time).  And we also managed to finish doing up Junior J's kitchen:Want a tour?  The...

Weekend Wanderings: Easy paper bag lanterns

Its the weekend!  Tomorrow, Chinese from around the world will be celebrating the Mid Autumn Festival, and over here we're missing our mooncakes (I love the traditional ones with rock sugar and nuts, what about you?).  We thought we'd join in some of the fun by making our...

Grateful Gatherings: Brothers

We've just passed the half-way mark of our stay in Germany, and 6 months have passed. How time flies, especially when it wings its way through the milestones of the littlest ones!  One of the sights that never fail to warm my heart would be the two of them sitting companionably...

Grateful Gatherings: I don't know about tomorrow

Thinking Thursdays: Books about France

Hello!  Things have been a little quieter on the blog since we got back, as I've been wrestling with mountains of laundry from the trip (its amazing how much stuff piles up after 2.5 weeks!).  The baby has been driving us crazy, as he's been taking forever to go down for...
