Well, it looks as though Spring has sprung here in South Georgia. It's been in the 70s for a few days now, closing in on 80 a few times. Thankfully, the humidity has not been that high, so it's not been bad outside at all. It also helps that the bugs (save for the fire ants) are not out yet! So we started our garden...
Make it History!
Tuesday Morning
Well, I guess if I am going to live in South Georgia and deal with icky weather for 9 months of the year, I'm going to post pretty pictures of the thermometer and our back patio on days when it is -4 in Detroit. On the mend, we are. Well, Karol is still sick, Benedict has a runny nose, I am just a bit congested and...
Showing up to Whine
We are all sick, well save for Karol. Please say a prayer for our family that we get over whatever this is.

Happy Birthday to Margaret!
Today little Margaret turns six! How did this happen? Margaret has turned out to be a fine little lady. She is helpful, sensitive, considerate (most of the time), and her biggest dream in life is to become a religious sister. For those interested, here is her birth story.
Pregnancy and Food
I've not blogged much about being pregnant, and heck, just let the cat out of the bag here recently, but I'd say it's been a different pregnancy all together. For starters, while I had morning sickness and the first trimester fog, I didn't lose much weight. My record is losing 25 lbs with Caecilia, but this time, I...
Epiphany Dinner
When I was younger my grandmother would make a dinner of pork roast, sauerkraut, and kanadles (sp?). The kanadles were potato dumplings. I've been wanting them for a while, but I have a fear of pork (if I is not cooked right I just cannot stomach the taste) so I've been holding off on making them. However, I had a...
