Around here we've been having a lot of restful homemaking. Here's some random happenings...
::Smoothies are always a good nutritional source in hot weather and I've added a recipe at the bottom of today's entry.
::My 6-year-old has taken to finger knitting and I couldn't be happier. She's made us all bracelets which we wear proudly. While picking out yarn for her, I found some leg warmers started last Winter with some yarn that I didn't really like. But, the girls don't mind a little acrylic so...waste not, want not I always say!! Gonna finish them.
::So very happy my chickens have been producing more eggs lately! They seemed to take a break for a while and we were just getting 1 or 2 a day. Back up to 4!!! Silly ol' hens, gosh darnit. (I know I am showing 3 eggs in the picture. You try holding four eggs in one hand and taking a photo with the other!)
:: The girls prettily strung shells on some smelly hemp string someone gave us. I took it when no one was looking at hung it in my (and Brad's) bathroom.
:: The four-year-old snuggles up with our labbie. What a nice old man. After what happened with Lulu, I'll never take this boy's sweetness for granted again. Might as well make that a "This Moment" of the week with Soulemama.
