Uncle Jay lived in Savannah, Georgia for over 9 years and when he moved back he brought little pieces of the South with him – like a fondness for sweet tea I don’t know what he’s thinking there… a habit of calling people Bubba, a cat called Lucy, and something…
I’m so excited, only one more day of work before vacation! It’s been a couple of years since Teacher and I had vacation at the same time. It’ll be a whirlwind week, but I’m really looking forward to it. Right after work tomorrow we’re hopping into the car and heading…
From Memorial Day to Labor Day every Saturday morning is Market Day in our hometown. The Farmers’ Market is one of the reasons our family looks forward to summer and we go every Saturday that we can. Most of main street is blocked off to traffic and filled with vendors…

This is our main floor bathroom. Actually it’s a closet disguised as a bathroom. I’ve seen airplane bathrooms bigger than our 3″ x 3 1/2″ cubbyhole! But the small size does have its advantages – you can clean all the walls, the floor and wash your hands in the sink…
If you’ve been reading my blog you’ll know that Teacher and I are trying to make green choices whenever we can. That’s why I was so excited to discover that our hosting company, Elemental Muse, is using the wind to power its servers! Read all the details in Elemental Muse’s…
