Today was one of thoseÂ lovely days that can only be consideredÂ aÂ preciousÂ gift.Â Beautiful messages and music in church this morning, good friends toÂ beÂ sillyÂ with this afternoon, and of course some spectacular egginess.Â Because the egginess can’t be stopped, don’t you know?Â White or brown, they are filled with nutritiousness and always up for a little fun.Â Â As always

The Story of the New Chicks

Once upon a time a family looked around the coop and realized their chickens were a bit boring.Â TheyÂ wanted to liven things up.Â They talked with the chickens, and asked if they’d be willing to lay some colored eggs, like Easter Egg layers.Â The chickens said no.Â They only knew how to make brown eggs.Â

I had grand plans of getting a post and pics up every day we stayed in Disney World.Â I’d start with a tribute to Walt Disney himself, and move on to commentary on the universality of creativity.Â Alas, my grand blogging plans were hijacked by a lion on a mission. As you can see, he

TheÂ Burfy!Â These loveable creatures are magical pets that double as training tools and sometimes spies in 13 Demon Days.Â They are formed from pure magic–or erelectra, as I call it–andÂ tend toÂ soak up and mimic whateve their owner does or says.Â Kind of like a parrot crossed with a puppy in the form of a fluffy

I spotted this bunch of perfumed sunshine whileÂ hiking alongÂ a trailÂ near our house. They were nodding in time toÂ a rockin’ frog song.Â I came home curious who the singers were, and think I found a match in the Cope’s Gray Tree Frog, but if I’m right–and that’s a big if–he’s early.Â Not supposed to sing until

The blog’s been neglected, the ChristmasÂ is still stacked ramble-bamble in a corner of the kitchen and I’ve turned ‘what’s for dinner’ over to theÂ almost fourteen-year-old. Scary?Â Â Naw.Â I couldn’t be happier.Â In fact, I wax so effusive that my family, being the darling dears they are, has thrust this blog in front of me and suggested

I have something toÂ share which shames me to admit.Â My fear is that this will not only reflect poorly on my childhood aptitude and my sterling reputation for discernment as an adult, it may also offend my new friends.Â Specifically, those from New York. Perhaps I can make it up to them when I blog

The Super Post

I kept hoping that the super post would be accompanied by some really super-spectacular, save-the-world kind ofÂ news…but nothing earth-shattering came up.Â On the other hand, no one has attempted to sabotageÂ me with kryptonite of any color, either.Â And, hey, absence of kryptonite is a good thing. We are having a super long break, which has

Winter Wonderland, Southern Style

Nobody does snow and ice like the south.Â All those northern and midwestern and even western statesÂ spend months every yearÂ practicing–shoveling snow, de-icing cars, drivingÂ calmly throughÂ blizzards–but they just don’t get it.Â The way to do snow properly is to stop in your tracks and stare. Cancel school. Build a snowman. And give thanks every dayÂ while the

I am thankful for a husband who still thinks I’m the wife for him, even while he makes me soup and edits my chapters. I am thankful for kids who believe me when I say the house must be cleaned (without my help) or no more Wii for the whole break.Â I am thankful when
