february 23


We all went to bed feeling fine last night; by this morning, we'd all been up several times - one boy with a stomach something, and one with a terrible earache. Adam has taken P to see the doctor for his ear, and T seems to be feeling much better and is reading his Busytown books in the living room. (He'll be three in a few weeks, and we're having a little Busytown party when we're visiting the grandparents. Each morning when he wakes up, he's a different Busytown character. So far today it's Huckle.)

Just mixed this bread up last night and took it out of the oven moments ago. (It's nothing like most bread. No flour, mostly nuts and seeds. Interesting, though - I especially love the odd method! I'm excited to try it toasted.)

I wrote a post for HandPicked Nation earlier this week on naturally cleaning your home earlier this week. (Fun! I love cleaning.)

I mentioned awhile ago that I was having awful headaches; they seem to have passed. In possibly related news, I bought a buckwheat pillow which I *love* from this Maine Etsy shop. I also bought these earrings, which I can't get enough of. I don't think the earrings have done anything for the headaches, but they're pretty.

Okay, off to tidy up the breakfast dishes and see if a certain someone wants to 'help'.

    1. I do like it; it's nutty and roasty delicious when toasted. I'm not quite in love with it yet; I think it needs a little more flavour - maybe some cinnamon, ginger, or nutmeg... or something. That said, I haven't tried it with jam or anything other than butter. I'm going to have some for breakfast, so we'll see. :)

  3. Loved your article, thanks for sharing your tips! That bread sounds really interesting, might give it a try if I can find the ingredients over here in Germany!

  4. We've been wanting buckwheat pillows for ages - it is nice to have a recommendation for where to buy. Did you order or make a case for them or is the cover a kind of case?
