Oy! How bad is my creative block these days? So bad that, even though the kids are ever busy with their daily creations, I don’t have it in me to take note and capture the moments here. Instead? I’m spending time over at Huset, ogling the beautiful things they have for sale that I can’t afford just now. (bust still… I’m happy to know this online store exists for when my wallet is a bit thicker).

A couple good things are going on that will certainly help. First, I’ve won a spot on Pip’s Blog Tour. Pip of Meet Me At Mikes, one of my all-time favorite blogs, will be stopping by here with a guest post in early February. Hurrah!

Secondly, I’m taking part in Ali’s Seven Days of Specialness project, and I have the best swap partner ever. You will love Kristin’s blog, Kleas.

Have any suggestions for overcoming blogger’s block? Share ‘em here! I could use all the help I can get

I can’t imagine all that ice on our windows can be a good thing, but it sure is beautiful, eh?

I’ve started making prettier food just so I could display it on this cake stand I got at Target right before Christmas. Even ugly food looks good on it.

Tor was so tired after pre-school yesterday, he built himself a cave and promptly fell asleep in it. I should ask his teachers what they put in his snacks

Did you know you can browse my site by photos? It’s a great way to uncover what may be new-to-you content. I think it’s pretty nifty. Just click on the “Browse Photos” link up there in the top navigation anytime you are looking for a bit of the unexpected

Merry Christmas!
