A blog post about nothing
August 19th, 2010
- Crocheted several rows of the stressed-virginia blanket this week. Have I mentioned how huge this thing is? It’s so wide that I’m considering making it vertically striped instead of horizontal… because at some point I’m just going to have to STOP… and that would let me stop sooner.
- Hazel has the hookup in our soon-to-be-town. Her new library card came in the mail this week :)
- They DO sell my favorite yogurt in this town! Thanks for the tip, Angelina. Too bad I’m leaving in a month. I’ll have to start the hunt all over again.
- Hazel is eating pirate’s booty out of the halloween bowl that she uses all year long… only the weather at night this week IS halloween-ish. And I can’t tell you how excited I am. Even though Mikey will be at a conference halloween weekend – boo.
- This magazine came weeks ago and promptly got buried under a pile of books. The pile got moved around and around. I found it today. It’s like getting a new ReadyMade all over again. Maybe this time I’ll actually read it.
- The juxtaposition of adult stuff and kid stuff usually doesn’t catch my eye. We’re a totally kid-centered house. There is no “playroom”. There is a “living room” and we all live in it. But the drain basket made me laugh today.
There, I made a blog post.
Oh, for those keeping track of these things, Luca has been upgraded from “Ca-ca” to “Yucca”.

Yay for library cards!!
A whole whack of Ready for Reading videos went up on the Toronto Public Library youtube page a couple weeks ago, including this one by yours truly! http://www.youtube.com/user/torontopubliclibrary#p/u/28/4_GU0It2qlo
Thought Hazel might enjoy them.
Cheers,

Oohhhh I love it! Mikey will have to learn this one – we’ve been at a loss for alphabet songs that end in “zed”, so whenever we try to toss that little bit of Canada into the mix she looks at us like we’ve lost it :)

Ha ha, love the drain basket. All the shots are great, it is fun to get a random peek into your world like this.

Aw, thanks! Sometimes it’s weird for me to look at photos like this because, since we are house-sitting, there’s so much in them that’s not really “our world”.
Our world doesn’t contain ceramic swans, for example. You can probably see a swan somewhere in almost ever single photo taken in this house (it’s their last name). Like finding superman in a Seinfeld episode.
Seinfeld references in the post AND the comments – two points!!
