Wagon Wheels: June 2012

Whatever I feel like writing. Sunday, June 10, 2012. June 2012 - older kids, pawpaws, and monkeyflowers. Blog update Sunday, June 10, 2012. Tonight CH was asleep by 7:45pm, TM was asleep before then (or pretending well enough that it was true soon after), and now it’s just me and the cat on the sofa! Q is travelling again, but he’s away for just a short trip this time. CH is almost 14mo old now! Work is going well – or at least it’s fun, which is close enough to “going well”. ...Meanwhile, it’s fun!

Wagon Wheels: April 2015

Whatever I feel like writing. Friday, April 24, 2015. The love of my life. I finally got a piano! Not only is it beautiful, it's amazing. Wonderful, stunning, and intimidating. It has a 500 year old Colorado Blue Spruce top, blister Koa back, and an ebony fretboard. The builder focuses on wood and sound rather than finish, so it's not ornamented much, which suits my personality perfectly. When we get it sounding good, we'll put up a recording. So so much fun! Wednesday, April 15, 2015. These are made wit...

Whatever I feel like writing. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Some thoughts on Barbie movies. I feel like I'm coming out of the closet when I say I love the early Barbie movies. But I banned Barbie movies after they got super commercial (ironic, no? Of course Barbie is commercial). When I saw Barbie had a hero movie (Princess Power), I couldn't resist, and I bought it. But I guess I'm too opinionated - I didn't like their body type for girls. I quickly wrote this letter to Mattel. The later movies started foc...

Whatever I feel like writing. Sunday, July 25, 2010. Mostly. Dissertation's turned in, my advisor has all the necessary forms, and now we wait for the Graduate Office to check my formatting and finalize everything. Hooray! So I'm closing the old blog, "Dissertation with Kid," and starting a New Blog. TM and Q and I went with some friends to the Vancouver Aquarium yesterday - it was so much fun!

I have several woodworking projects waiting for me, but I got stymied at the "tool sharpening" stage. And our kitchen knives are dull dull dull dull. I happened to mention it to my amazing luthier friend, who showed me his very cheap method using automotive sandpaper! I still have to sharpen my chisel, but I'm so happy with this!

Whatever I feel like writing. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. I've found a sandwich bread recipe TM will eat! I'm so so so excited, you have no idea. It's worked 3-4 times now, so we're good to go! It's modified slightly from http:/ www.landolakes.com/recipe/3074/sandwich-bread-gluten-free-recipe. I tried the recipe in Gluten Free Baking Classics. But when I found the Land-o-Lakes recipe, hooray, it actually worked! So I could get the amounts right. And I added a little more milk (almond milk). 1/4 C canola oil.

Whatever I feel like writing. Wednesday, June 26, 2013. I've made these before to great success, but today I made rice fryums with once-ground rice flour and a mix of canola/coconut oil. Usually I double-grind my rice flour. I also added coconut oil to the frying oil (usually canola), thinking that it would raise the smoke point for the frying oil - my canola oil starts to smoke when I'm frying these guys. Cause I'd made a double-batch. Here they are on a drying rack for. And here they are fried. Yay!

Whatever I feel like writing. Tuesday, February 25, 2014. Eating gluten and dairy hooray! Here's a long overdue update! Since we moved to a newer place, TM's allergies have calmed down surprisingly. She doesn't seem to have trouble with gluten or dairy anymore, which is marvelous! I had a blast making her birthday cake:. TM also is absolutely loving taking horse riding lessons. She's quite passionate about it. For our Christmas portrait I decided we should paint! Definitely due for a repeat next year.

Whatever I feel like writing. Wednesday, January 28, 2015. More Harry Potter crafts. Harry Potter Places signpost (I printed the names. On brown paper and glued them on. Not great, but easy). Chocolate frog box from a tutorial by Chica and Jojo. Stuffed ball pythons by TM's special request. I covered one of our human anatomy books with. Snakeskin from the stuffed pythons :). If mom were here, the lettering would be awesome. I used stickers. Could be worse! Barely. But hey. Harry Potter crafts - wands.

Whatever I feel like writing. Sunday, July 6, 2014. Berry seeds and bathroom shelf. I have enough pictures for another post! And since Q broke his arm last week, we're spending a lot of time at home. I collected some huckleberry, salmonberry, and Indian plum seeds! I'm really excited to get them germinating in the fall. I've wanted these plants on my balcony since we moved here. Here are some pictures of my seed-cleaning method:. I finished building an over-the-toilet shelf for the bathroom! Saturday, Ju...
