  1. Lily is napping and Lulu is working on birthday party invitations and I'm working on her prairie dress! The bonnet is done but it's..um...huge. I think she doesn't mind. Is Duma scary?

  4. sini, i use the cubes for iced coffee. that way it doesn't get watered down and it tastes good!!!


    jessica - duma can be intense and the boy's father dies early in the movie. it's a great movie though. even if only you watch it : )

  5. It rained all day today so instead of BBQ'ing I made a big pot of spaghetti and tackled the laundry.

  8. Oh yes, ice coffee! Thank you for reminding me of that, it will be so good at summer when it's awfully hot :) Do you have some special recipe? I haven't ever done it by myself, it would be better to do it than buy from store.
