Every Friday my son has a spelling test, and on the back of the paper he always draws a little picture of the two of us. It's really cute and something I look forward to each week. Last week, he came home with this. Can you tell Mommy has been sleeping a lot lately? This is me in bed and him checking in on me with a big frown on both of our faces, because we are so sad that I am sick. Cute right? I've been down and out with pneumonia for the last couple of weeks. It's been horrible! I've … [Read more...]

I have a confession, I do not have a green thumb. It's true. Not even a light shade of green. But it doesn't stop me from trying. Hubs and I had been talking one night about how we just love fresh herbs and wouldn't it be nice to have access to those fresh herbs whenever we liked.
