I am going to change things a bit around here and start posting our menu plans for the week on Sunday, since our new routine has us picking up our goodies from the ASN Food Club on Saturdays, and our menu plans cycle from Sunday through Saturday now. This helps me keep on top of things!…

A love affair + food
I have had a project sitting at the back of my mind for a while now. You know the kind: an idea that occurs to you in the middle of the night (my best ideas tend to come during the nocturnal nursing session I don’t think Miss Cecily is ever going to give up!), and…
Recent projects
Once again, my sewing machine is earning her keep! (It just dawned on me I need a name for her…anyone have any suggestions?) Here are a couple of projects I’ve completed recently. The overalls, a gift for a friend’s sweet baby girl born in January, are yet another of my projects using the Jackie Clark Baby Overalls pattern. I had…

I was skeptical, too….
Scary cute

Indescribable goodness (and this week’s menu)
Might I just say that there is nothing, absolutely nothing I have experienced in my entire culinary life as divine as the farm-fresh items we picked up on Saturday from our first order through the Arkansas Sustainable Network Local Food Club? I cannot even begin to say what a thrill it is to be able…
