Today’s craft project was good old-fashioned paint, paper, scissors, glue, and sequins. I realized that we had been in the house all day, so we decided to go out for ice cream after dinner. I hope you’re having a good weekend.
making space

I’ve been trying to open up more space in our house. We took the table out of our dining room (and into the kitchen) and moved one of the sofas out of the living room. It feels great, although I can’t promise things will stay this way. Having a big open space in the house [...]

I didn’t get much organizing done today. Saya had a friend over instead. The sweetest little boy you could ever imagine. He was a bit sad when he left because Saya wouldn’t give him a kiss. She said, “I’m not old enough yet.” Smart girl. I gave him a kiss instead. Junji and I watched [...]

Today I had a good day with my family, Saya fell asleep on my chest in the late afternoon after a busy day. She doesn’t do that much anymore, so I soaked in every precious moment. I am in a slump right now. I don’t feel like doing anything. I am not too worried about [...]

When this year began I printed out this chart from The Small Object and resolved to exercise more. For me yoga is the most sustainable exercise program because it is something I actually enjoy doing–if I didn’t enjoy it I don’t think I could stick it out for more than the first week or two. [...]

junji’s hot chocolate

Junji has been making us some great hot chocolate recently, so I asked him to share his recipe. It’s sooooo yummy. Best I’ve ever had. This recipe makes more than enough for the three of us. You’ll need: 3 cups of milk (we use skim and it’s PLENTY rich enough) 1 4 oz. bar of [...]
