Thanks so much to Hallie who shared this story of the car-less mother who totes her six children around by way of bicycle. How fun!
Lately I’ve been thinking about adventures with my kids, what kinds of things I’m willing to do on my own with them versus waiting for my husband. Summertime often prompts these ruminations. I want to go off and have fun, to take them places and try new things. But…I... READ MORE
What Do You Remember from High School?

Any other high school science geeks out there?
I enjoyed a walk down memory lane with this “science literacy” quiz at the Christian Science Monitor: quiz here. I don’t really think the results indicate familiarity with basic science concepts - most of the questions concern trivia - and you can definitely get an edge by knowing ancient Greek culture and language, but I had fun answering the questions anyway. Maybe you will too!

(First off, I feel like any post today not discussing the ACA mandate is superfluous, so understand that I am aware this topic is silly in light of what is going on in our country today.)
Rebecca’s post on beloved (and not so beloved) books got me thinking about favorite films, the ones we can watch over and over. They might not be Classics, but they’re classic to you—those movies that you will watch... READ MORE
Respectfully Discussing It
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Thursday, June 28, 2012 1:31 PM
Perhaps it was fitting that at the exact time today’s Supreme Court decision on the Affordable Care Act was being handed down, I was in my car driving to take my mother-in-law to a post surgical appointment. Had I been at my desk, I likely would have fired off a rapid missive (or at least tweeted it) without having the opportunity to properly pray about the situation and gather the facts.
In the few... READ MORE

Tough Recipes
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 9:00 AM
I have a nemesis.
Well, it’s more of a love/hate relationship, because it makes me crazy, but I can’t quit it. It’s driven me to tears - my husband laughed when he found me standing over the sink chipping away at a pan of crystallized sugar and ranting under my breath, though it’s serious business to me - but when I get it right, I know I’ll keep coming back over and over again.
Caramel sauce. My... READ MORE

What Would Your Husband Pin?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Tuesday, June 26, 2012 12:00 PM
You all know how much I love the new social networking “scrapbook” Pinterest. Well yesterday, I ran across this interesting article over at CNN describing the recent trend in creation of “man-oriented” Pinterest imitation sites. The article details Pinterest’s meteoric rise in popularity and offers alternatives men might prefer using. Here’s a quote from one of the alternate site’s founders:
