Pizza Night

Probably our favoritest thing to eat is pizza. I love the variety, and the taste, and that I can pack healthy stuff on there and the girls actually eat it. I learned many of my pizza skills from my friend Josh, who hopefully will open the next big pizza restaurant in Utah Valley someday. And then I will have to move there, for his pizza is SO tasty. Anyway, in this picture we have roasted tomato pizza, garlic sauteed chard with goats cheese pizza, and breakfast pizza- ham, roasted peppers, and eggs with smoked gouda and mozzarella and aleppo pepper (my new favorite pepper.)

Oh Boy, We've Got Joy, We Do, We Do

Here are Camille and Grace on their first day of Joy School. New clothes and all. We're doing Joy School, a values-based co-op preschool with the girls and 3 of their friends twice a week. They love being with their friends and learning and doing the activities. And, I didn't think I would, but I love having them gone for 2.5 hours twice a week. I've been cleaning the house more, letting Clark get some good naps, running errands a little easier. It's a pretty good system. Except for this coming week, when I have to teach! I'm a little scared of molding the minds of "strangers" but we'll see how it goes!

Mod Mom

I have a problem, and the problem is that I don't know how to dress anymore. You know how it goes- sizes change with the advent of children, but that's not the only reason that I'm just not feeling up to snuff. I don't know- am I too cheap? Too reserved now that I'm almost *gulp* 30? I think that one problem is that I was ingrained with the idea that everything has to match. So, even though my kids' clothes rarely match (if you're around them much, you know what I'm talking about), mine just have to. I just found this site, that might be one of my new faves: http://www.modcloth.com/ . They have a lot of stuff that i just love. I really like the outfit above, which is pictured on the main page. Here's the thing, though. It doesn't match. And, I'm not a gorgeous model. Could I actually pull this sort of thing off, or would people tell me that I looked silly. Maybe I would look silly. And I don't have enough clothes to choose from (Paul's going to laugh at that) and I don't have the right sort of clothes or the time to go looking, or the money to buy everything from here. Scott- I need you to be my personal shopper. Seth, you can help. So can Keri, she's the type of gal that throws stuff together and looks awesome all the time, and whose closet is the envy of everyone.

I don't know why I am sharing this with you, oh blog reader. Maybe you can miraculously change me into the me I'd like to be. Or maybe the me I think I'd like to be is too frivolous. Maybe this isn't much of a post, but I'm publishing..... now.

Normal

Dear Weather,

You seem back to your normal self today. I'm sorry that I complained about you yesterday- thanks for being so grand.

love,
Sarah

Dear Weather

Dear Weather,

You are a liar. How can the forecast for today say that the high is going to be 74, but the actual temperature is 80. You lie.

With disgust,

Sarah



PS. Yes, I know that 80 isn't that hot for you other people in other parts of the land, but with 60 percent humidity and no AC it's starting to get to me.
