thoughtful nest: August 2011
http://samsthoughtfulnest.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 13, 2011. It's a Beautiful Life, This Crazy Life. How are the four of you today? Ha If you're even still there. I have been a terrible, terrible blogstress this summer. It's been hard to know what to write about with so much going on. I will try to summarize the goings on without boring you all. Went to the market in Sidney the other night with a girlfriend (we left the kids home with their Dads). It was amazing! From http:/ www.drawerpullstore.com). Posted by Samantha Agar. Subscribe to...

http://samsthoughtfulnest.blogspot.com/2011/06/whatnots-and-whozits-etc.html
Tuesday, June 7, 2011. Whatnots and Whozits, Etc. We're keeping flowers around all the time now, in case of showings. Her son is now about 22 and has moved in a girlfriend who does the same thing for him! Don't get me wrong. There's nothing wrong with a Mama's Boy. But my Mama's Boys will know how to both grow and cook their own food AND do laundry. By the time they're 10. Griffin eating actual veggies, hidden in his mac and cheese! A snapshot of one of our market hauls from last summer. Ha ha - ten minu...

thoughtful nest: October 2011
http://samsthoughtfulnest.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 6, 2011. Things are good in general, but our lives are currently completely dominated with trying to sell the home we are still in so we can move into our new place! I can't wait to be there. I will wait a few days until I have a chance to get current photos and then will post some here. My kitchen cupboards and floors are mostly in and look INSANE! I think someone will love it. But we have to consider the current economic climate, which is, well, sucky. So really it's the same as if he...

In the Studio: Ter Borch: Part 2
http://renaselim.blogspot.com/2011/01/ter-borch-part-2.html
Saturday, January 15, 2011. Ter Borch: Part 2. End of day one. End of day two. It's interesting to note that with every painting I understand a little more about myself. It became evident quite early that I am very impatient and not too fond of detail. The glazing process is really a struggle since it requires planning ahead and working in stages and there are a lot of tiny details in this painting that are really challenging. March 17, 2011 at 6:38 PM. Rena, Thanks so much for sharing your process!

Friday, July 8, 2011. With Bruce's passing (see my last post: My Friend Bruce. We will try to honour him at every turn, knowing of course that he wanted us to enjoy our home and make our own choices. I have plans to include him on our family and friends picture wall and will probably do a small plaque for him on the property somewhere. Golden Ray" granite: kitchen counters.

If you haven't found a way to support him yet, do. He's trying to branch out everywhere. He makes it easy for you to contribute or find out more about his various ventures at http:/ www.jamieoliver.com/. Photo to the left respectfully borrowed from. Http:/ www.dailymail.co.uk. I'm thinking after watching him introduce vegetables to kids who ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THEY WERE (seriously, like guessing that cauliflower was broccoli and that sort of thing) that I will have to do garden tours with my boys' ...

thoughtful nest: July 2011
http://samsthoughtfulnest.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 20, 2011. Paint colours are up now and soon flooring will start going in. We've reduced the price on our current home as the market is seeming quite inactive since we listed a couple of months ago. http:/ www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx? Pics aren't great but it shows well. It's been a great home for us). We went up to Lillooet to see my brother in-law and his gal Lisa, and also my father in-law and his lady Phyllis for a week with our boys. They had a blast! Posted by Samantha Agar.
