A weekend full of sports!

Ice skating… soccer… mini-golf… horse-back riding! Wow, we had fun!

A few years ago, a toddler Charlie would not even go near paint, the texture, the stick, the smell, was just too much for his heightened senses! Having been an artist my whole life, this was a little disappointing. I have this idea we’d be standing at side-by-side easels one day. Well, here we are…

Run Fast Eat Slow Teff Pumpkin Craisin Pancakes

There’s a ton of talk everywhere about what you can’t eat! I’m really sick of it!
