Piece of the Sun: Becoming Mother
http://pieceofthesun.blogspot.com/2012/05/becoming-mother.html
Friday, May 11, 2012. This is my second year celebrating Mother's Day, an this past year has been. interesting. One year ago, life was similar to the way it is now, at least on the surface: I have one son. Life is challenging. I am always tired. But on the inside, things are very different. I tried to articulate these feelings along the way, but they haven't always come out the right way or been received well. That I was unsure I would make it to the next day. And honestly was not something we mothers ar...

Piece of the Sun: A Birthday For Miles
http://pieceofthesun.blogspot.com/2011/08/birthday-for-miles.html
Saturday, August 27, 2011. A Birthday For Miles. The dinosaurs have come back just in time for Miles's birthday! A volcano cake for the Birthday Boy! Stegosaurus Cupcakes for everyone else (with almonds). Miles blows out his candle with a little help from Mom and Dad. What do I do with this? Miles eats his cake. A wee brontosaurus wanders up and asks for a bite of cake. Miles lets him clean the plate while he moves on to the pinata. Whoa What is that? Paul and Sarah made the pinata - it took days!

Piece of the Sun: Hello Mornings Challenge
http://pieceofthesun.blogspot.com/2011/09/hello-mornings-challenge.html
Thursday, September 15, 2011. Source: Inspired to Action. For the last year (since Miles was born), sleep is the one thing I've needed the most and been gotten the least. Things are much better now, but our nights, mornings, naps, and evenings still aren't as restful as we'd like. Oh well, there's only so much you can do with a high-need baby who fights sleep!

Cantilever PDX: 2009.10
http://cantileverpdx.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Urban ideas on the buildings, spaces, people, and politics of Portland Oregon. The tower which until recently was known as the ZGF Tower. The windmill people are coming! The coolest part of the building sits on the roof. Four wind turbines. PS When I took these photos, the wind turbines had not yet been installed on the roof, and I had no idea they were coming! But you can see them here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Piece of the Sun. Watermark template. Powered by Blogger.

Cantilever PDX: 2008.08
http://cantileverpdx.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Urban ideas on the buildings, spaces, people, and politics of Portland Oregon. The old Sauvie Island Bridge. As of now, the project is not going to happen, as I imagine costs are prohibitive and apparently the bicycle lobby and historic bridge lobby are no match for reality. Too bad. I found these images in a recent issue of Architectural Record. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Piece of the Sun. Watermark template. Powered by Blogger.

Cantilever PDX: 2010.04
http://cantileverpdx.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Urban ideas on the buildings, spaces, people, and politics of Portland Oregon. Little Dubai of the Northwest. Luckily, the streetcar runs on a loop and I board to return to downtown. The rain has started to fall with more authority, telling me to come back again when there is more to see than the progress on the latest tower. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Piece of the Sun: Meal Plan Monday
http://pieceofthesun.blogspot.com/2011/09/meal-plan-monday.html
Monday, September 26, 2011. Today marks the beginning of the Plan It, Don't Panic Meal Planning Challenge. Head over to Keeper of the Home. To see the linkup and learn more about the challenge.

Wednesdays: there is very little food left in the fridge mid-week. Meals are creative, to say the least. I want to mention that I rarely...
