This one’s for the ladies

By Anna Sawin

Okay, I leave you for days on end with a picture of a foot, sorry about that. I even had a PR person pitching me on a product start by saying, “Ouch, I hope your foot feels better!” Definitely a sign that I left that post up too long. I hope you’ll forgive me. Since…

The foot bone’s connected to the ankle bone

By Anna Sawin

If it’s possible to overdose on chocolate, I think I definitely did. But besides that, we had a great weekend with a house filled to the rafters, and we almost finished the whole swinging quart of fudge sauce. And about 100 other pounds of food. In fact, about the only thing that would feel good…

Food Friday: Ben & Jerry’s Hot Fudge Sauce

By Anna Sawin

Photo by sugarsavvy.net. Who saved me from having to take this photo this morning. I know what you’re thinking. Here, I’ll say it for you: A) She’s got nerve to post a recipe for hot fudge sauce after yesterday’s post. B) Didn’t she just post a recipe for hot fudge sauce? C) Does she ever…

Apologies if you came back here looking for pretty pictures

By Anna Sawin

Believe me, Henry, I wanted to cry, too! Yes, that is what you think it is on the crib rail. I would start this by saying there are no words to describe what I just experienced, but then that wouldn’t be much of a post. So I will say that the poo-bacle last winter was…

Sleeping like a baby

By Anna Sawin

While young Elizabeth, nine days old, purportedly kept her parents up ALL NIGHT (10- 7 a.m.!) the night before these photos were taken, all I know is what I see here: that she was the most well behaved newborn model I’ve ever had, and I’ve had some good ones. Hopefully someone got some sleep there…

Through the viewfinder (a Photoshop tutorial of sorts)

By Anna Sawin

I’m rarely on the bandwagon with photo processing trends, mostly because, well, have you seen the pile of laundry in my living room? And, oh, and these guys keep me a little busy, too. So while the rest of the photo enthusiasts I love to read were playing with things like selective color, way back…

Three words you don’t hear together every day: sea creature gummies

By Anna Sawin

I think the only thing better than gummy sea creatures in Will’s opinion is gummy sea creatures on a stick. This spectacular confection came from his Auntie Melissa along with his birthday present, isn’t it something? He was very good about eating just one piece a day and about sharing it with his brother, though…

Did someone say blueberries?

By Anna Sawin

I swear I heard someone around here promising a blueberry post. Not what you had in mind, maybe, but here you go. More soon. Hard to pick them, cook them AND post about them, as it turns out. For more Best Shot Monday, you know where to go!

In lieu of Food Friday: Harp Seal Release

By Anna Sawin

I’m out of town for the day, and if I was a super techno-blogger I would research and write and post from my phone but….I am not. So Food Friday: Blueberries will appear tomorrow. If you’ve got something you’re sharing on your site today, please leave it in the comments tomorrow! * * * Will…
