The Help
I love that there are occasionally ‘jobs’ that I dread doing…that I know a certain someone will adore pulling off. Seasoning the cast iron tea kettle, for instance… It started slow. The reticent, one-fingered application. She, much like her mother, is not fond of dirty hands. Apparently grease is in a class of it’s own. The next time I glanced… Read More
How To Keep A Toddler Boy Busy…
for ten whole minutes: Strap on a backpack. Preferably a monkey. Only because it’s fun to say they have a “monkey on their back”. But, maybe you get out more than I do. Latch the top buckle. Let him latch the lower one. When you hear a shriek of delight, simply unlatch. Occasionally you may hear other shrieks. Simply… Read More

Not because my little blog is working magic in the blogosphere or any reason remotely that extravagant, but simply because I’m tired of typing .blogspot.com. I’m lazy like that. I had grandiose plans, I tell you. Until I discovered I was too late. Simplybloom.com was… Read More
