1 . I have been eating at least one head of kale (sometimes two) a day lately. It’s just so gosh darn good. Especially this sunshine in a bowl. I can use all the sunshine I can get.
2. It snowed again. If anyone reading this lives in the Caribbean and wants to host a family of three (+ a cat and a dog) until say…June…please let me know. I will do all of your cooking to earn our keep. Maybe even all the cleaning.
3. My grandma turned ninty-one years old on Sunday. How awesome is she?

5. I get to see Cait this week! We met for coffee last year when I was in NYC for a wedding and it was one of the best hours of my life. I am counting down the seconds until I see her again.
6. There are still a couple of tickets left for BLEND. I really, really, really think that if you can make it happen – you should be there. I sincerely want to meet you and play together in Boulder for a weekend. Just imagine the fun. Or don’t imagine it…look at this outline of events.
7. Go check out this week’s Tuesday Trainer…there is a video of Baby A and me. She eats paper in it. You would hate to miss that, wouldn’t you?
8. Speaking of Baby A – she is terrific at helping me with laundry.
9. This video is so oddly/freakishly/awesomely entertaining. But it’s five minutes long, so go get yourself a cup of coffee before you press play. I promise you’ll be amused…you might even laugh.
10. Have an incredible Tuesday!




You singlehandedly have me obsessed with that salad. I read Mama Pea’s blog every day and I hadn’t thought about that salad once since it was posted. I remember thinking, “MEH, but it’s kale…..” because I am not the hugest fan of kale. But, now that I read the recipe again, that dressing must make it amazing. I am dreaming of it nonstop now! ha ha ha!!!
Sorry about the snow…I feel for you. We had a blizzard out here two years ago and we were homebound for a week.
Luckily, Colorado kicks a storm’s butt when it arrives…we were out and about the day after we had two feet, but I STILL hate it.
I can see where you get your beautifully long legs!! Happy birthday, grandma!
I’m so hoping to come to Blend!! I told my husband it would be such a FUN Drive from san fran to Colorado – unf he then googled it and its pretty much all blank highway… but Ive promised him lots of McDonalds along the way (and said I MIGHT even share a chip with him) – so fingers crossed!!
I love kale too.
You must!!
this video is hilarious! I wish I could dance like him
OMG that face. Too much. Loved your Tuesday Trainer video, too.
Ok, I only watched half that video but I’m dying. It’s so insanely ridiculous and stupid but I can’t stop laughing.
I’m so confused about everything in my life right now. Why was *I* invited to star in that video!?
And your voice sounds like I had imagined it! Sorry, that’s weird.
I always have the opposite happen…people NEVER sound like what I expect them to.
Your daughter is so delightful! Such beautiful big eyes!
How do you enjoy your kale salads? As a meal on their own or a side? I can’t get enough of the stuff!
X
I wish I could eat 10lbs of kale for a meal, but it’s expensive…wah,wah. So I usually just have it as a side.
1…2…3…4..5… (that was me ALSO counting the seconds)! I just emailed you about it actually! I CANNOT STINKING WAIT!
And oh my goodness I want to eat Baby A’s face off in that picture!! Look at those little cheeks!
Also? If you get someone to bite on your Caribbean deal, can we come visit for say…a month? THANK YOU!
We can strap a mop to Baby A’s butt and drag her around – it’s a win win, clean floors and a happy baby! Am I ready to be a mother or WHAT! haha
I think that sounds like the best solution EVER. Baby mop butt.
Haha YES. I think we should market it…with that name. We’ll make MILLIONS!
Could she be ANY CUTER?? That is a gorgeous photo of Baby A.
Happy birthday to your Grandma!! We only got a dusting last night…crazy that you guys have gotten so slammed with snow! And that salad is amazing. Mama Pea made it for me herself last week! xo Let’s set a date to meet up!
ahh that picture is so adorable
you have a German!!!!!!!!!!!! of course
I had two (once
) but not at the same time! Minder and Timber … Timber just died
what’s your German’s name? male or female?
Girl named Punky…she is seriously the best dog ever.
Aren’t they the best dogs?!
Katie! You and I, both, know that Germans ARE the best! So AWESOME is the only world I can think of that might suffice! My parents just had their German’s (Bella) litter of five in Africa!!!
How do you always manage to have the cutest baby pics of all time? Seriously.
Umm if that family in the warm weather wants to host me as well, I’ll be there!
Maybe we should move the BLEND retreat to the Caribbean and make it a month or two long…
Love that photo of your Grandma. She looks so fab! Happy Bday to her– 91 years is quite an accomplishment!
Aww why is Baby A so adorable?! Every time I see a picture of her cute little face I get so broody!
And can I tag along to the Caribbean too please, seriously had enough of the snow. I wish wish wish I could go to BLEND it sounds amazing, unfortunately I live on the wrong continent
are you KIDDING me with those pictures of your baby girl?! adorableeeeee
oh I am LOVING kale all of the time…I sometimes back off because I think i should beacuse I eat too much! haha I love it!
must try that sunshine recipe!!
Love Gram’s ‘tude and the shades. Hope she still has “it”!
I want to go to te Blend retreat so very badly! Just don’t think I can make it work this year with breastfeeding and all- sniffle. Next year!
I totally get it. My little one will almost be a year, and I am trying to figure out how the whole nursing thing will work with her too.
Those cheeks are just too much! So, so wish I could make it to BLEND. Sometime we will cone to Colorado…
Aw, friend – come here! We have had sun here the past few days.. you’re invited, w Baby A.
Baby is incredibly cute there. so stinkin cute. I’m sure that snow SUCKs, but since we haven’t had any all winter in MN, at least your winter feels like a winter. I, too am looking for a host in the carribbean! or Jamaica, or Thailand.
Your baby girl is the cutest. You are blessed!
Great blog btw.
can baby A come help me with my laundry? wait. i mean DO my laundry. there would be no helping involved.
She would love to. Maybe she’d even scrub your toilets if you make her some snickers bars.
I AM ALSO OBSESSED WITH MAMA PEA’S SUNSHINE SALAD. I LOVE IT!
I’m pretty sure I didn’t discover it until you blogged about it. Changed my life.
