Rhyme Of The Day: AKA Bishop's Lace
http://johnjenright.blogspot.com/2015/08/aka-bishops-lace.html
Rhyme Of The Day. Various meanderings with a rhyme in there somewhere. Sunday, August 09, 2015. Queen Anne's Lace, also known as Wild Carrot. Took a pic and thought I'd share it. Theater side note: when my play, Wild Flowers, started, we used some fake yellow flowers as the wildflowers that make an appearance in the show. But by the end of the run, the actors had switched to picking some of these fresh for each performance. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Email Subscriptions powered by FeedBlitz.

mudpies and paint: August 2012
http://mudpiesandpaint.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 10, 2012. We have had an exciting opportunity come to use over the last months. While we are still living in our neighborhood home and slowly building our backyard "farm", we are also investing our time and know-how into a 4-acre farm that friends have moved to over the summer. Our homeschooling journey is about to enter a new dimension as we also add farming to our lives. I will hopefully be able to share all the new and interesting things we do.

Sunday, September 16, 2012. Kids photography and more new chickens. There always seems to be a camera handy when the children get an urge to snap some pictures. A lot of them end up blurry or dark, but sometimes there are really good shots. I never know when I upload pictures what I may see. Mary and Robbie are my primary picture takers. They love to snap shots of life around them. Mary took my camera with them to the mountains over Labor Day and came back of wonderful pictures. We will be getting two ni...

mudpies and paint: October 2012

Tuesday, October 02, 2012. Staying Busy and Mary's latest Handiwork. It is that time of year where we are almost overwhelmingly busy. Schooling, sports, activities, fall cleaning and winter preparation. It is hard to stop and take time for photos and writing. Softball is winding down. Katie's team won the regular season title, and once this rainy period moves off they may be able to begin the tournament. I have noticed that the more I stay away from added ingredients in prepared food the better my stomac...

mudpies and paint: April 2011
http://mudpiesandpaint.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. Easter Week Picture Post. Monday, April 18, 2011. The end of the week we kept hearing about the chance of severe weather for Saturday and had heard the reports of tornadoes further west. But, my concern was hoping that we could get our games in this weekend after having so many games cancelled and rescheduled this Spring. North Carolina generally doesn't have widespread, strong tornadoes. Historically, our tornadoes are weak and sporadic. I've just been trying to absorb the scope ...

mudpies and paint: July 2012
http://mudpiesandpaint.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 16, 2012. Last night, while we were eating dinner our hugely pregnant cat decided to go into labor. She gave us a front row seat to the feline birthing process. Almost effortlessly she had 7 beautiful kittens over a 4 hour period. All four of the boys look just like their mother. The three dark ones are the girls, incorporating more of their father's coloring. Feline genetics is very interesting. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Seven Years of Homeschooling.

mudpies and paint: Busy Season
http://mudpiesandpaint.blogspot.com/2012/03/busy-season.html
Tuesday, March 27, 2012. The rest of our homestead has taken off and I am staying busy just trying to keep up with all the upkeep (and washing of the muddy clothes that goes along with the rain). The garden I planted in January has hit its stride. I am harvesting lettuce everyday just to keep up. My container garden is also doing well. I also have lots of small containers of herb seedlings that look wonderful. They should be ready for transplant when I can finally work in the garden again. I ground my ow...

Friday, October 15, 2010. Nightgown 1 - Done. Finished Emily's first nightgown late last night. Just in time for our trip to the mountains this weekend where it is going to be very cold. The pattern ended up running large, which is okay. I hope that Emily will be able to get a couple of winters out of her nightgowns. I've got one more to make for Emily and then I have already received orders from the other three for pajama pants. Monday, October 11, 2010. Katie finished up her softball season this past w...
