Most leagues have their registration in the spring and they fill very quickly. So how do you know if your little one is ready for Learn to Play? If you ask me, all … [Read more...]
When someone else says it best
Often when I am writing a card for a special occasion or sending a note to express some emotional point I find what I want to say has already been said.

You’ve Only Failed if You Fail to Try…
...says the legend of Princess Oochigeas..."A brave spirit makes all things possible."

Mmmm….Ohhh…I’m So Full!
*burp* This is my Full English Breakfast from yesterday morning: That's two eggs (fried), 2 rashers of bacon (which, incidentally, tastes MUCH better than our kind of bacon...it's thicker, like back bacon almost), 2 bangers (sausages), 3 hashbrowns, a baked tomato and yes, brown beans. Oh! And 2 … [Read more...]

In a Holding Pattern
Note the fact that I had to lean over a bit to get the feet in! (Man I'm tall...my feet are 3 miles away) Sorry all for the delay in getting a new post this week. I've been dealing with some lovely late-pregnancy issues (I'll spare you all of the gory details, although it does seem like … [Read more...]
My First English Meal
I don't think I've mentioned it here before, but I am spending a week on holiday with my expat sister and her fiancé in England. More specifically in Epsom, Surrey, which is just outside the amazing metropolis of London. I wanted to share my trip with you, but how best to do it? I was inspired … [Read more...]
