It's Been A Minute... or Eighty Thousand

I haven't been posting. Shame on me? It's summer, it's hot, I'm busy,... and full of excuses.

I've been taking photos, but I've missed a few days. Never thought it would be that hard to snap a simple cell phone pic everyday - especially with a kid, but I guess that is part of the complication.

Things have been good though. I'll be back around. Thanks to those of you who check in from time to time for entertainment. Sorry for the involuntary hiatus.

TTY: Day Eighty Eight

The aftermath of a Thursday.

TTY: Day Eighty Seven

Somehow this is the only photo I took today. I'm working on a logo for a friend's new photo studio.

TTY: Day Eighty Six

As awful as this looks, it's really quite tasty. It's a German pancake "casserole style." Jas wanted me to make extra and I only have one pie plate which is what I normally cook it in. So we got this delicious monstrosity.

TTY: Day Eighty Five

What better way to start the week than with corn on the cob for breakfast.

TTY: Day Eighty Four

We went swimming with my uncle for the first time this summer. Beans had a blast and flipped out when we left. But we finally got her to wear a floatation device!

TTY: Day Eighty Three

I have a friend that works at Barnes & Noble. Today she was Spot the Dog.

TTY: Day Eighty Two

Bubbles make a happy Beans. And so do pirate shirts.

TTY: Day Eighty One

Sweet sugar skull shirt! I made it myself! Beans calls it a "pirate shirt". Any thing with a skull is pirate, you know.

TTY: Day Eighty

Have a seat... or two.

TTY: Day Seventy Nine

I guess this is good for digestion.

TTY: Day Seventy Eight

Sadie Bear in the Jasmine. There is so much that the fragrance is almost overwhelming.

TTY: Day Seventy Seven

What better way is there to spend a Sunday afternoon than wearing a sparkly tutu, sitting in an overstuffed chair and eating a mini ice cream drum stick with a spoon?

TTY: Day Seventy Six

Beans, Jas, and I went to have hibachi with Jas' family. This was taken right before the chef set the whole grill on fire! I should have take video of Beans reaction - she nearly fell out of her chair! But she had a great time!

TTY: Day Seventy Five

We're picking out a thermos, for Jas!

TTY: Day Seventy Four

Beans and I took the Bear to the doctor today. Beans thought she was at the doctor and got freaked out for a minute. But we have reestablished that we have a big, healthy Bear-dog.

Cute Blog Alert: Bentobloggy

Okay, so you have to check out this blog: Bentobloggy! I love bento (and most cutesy Asian thing for that matter). I've been reading it for a while, but just became a follower (I forget that I can do that and how much easier it is to check blogs I like that way)!

Just look at the cute bentos she makes! The photo is "Mini Corn Dogs & Jolly Octopi Gentlemen"! I love it!

It is such a cute little blog and she has so many cute ideas - and healthy too! So go here, and check it out!

TTY: Day Seventy Three

I know as well as you this look disgusting. Food does not photograph well unless you take lots of care and time to do. And I took this on the arm of my couch with a cell phone camera. But it's called poutine and it's amazing artery clogging goodness! Fries, cheese curds, and brown gravy... mmmm, atherosclerosis.

TTY: Day Seventy Two

I'm getting pretty decent at this sushi rolling thing.

TTY: Day Seventy One

Poor Jas. He's been battling cellulitis. It's awful, but he's doing much much better now. Thanks to antibiotics, his elbow has gone from the size of a soft ball to almost normal!
