China Lake in the sunshine last week.
Happy Friday, everyone! How was your first week back to reality after the holidays? I picked up our farm share for the first time since Christmas and managed to cook nearly all of the veggies into five actual real dinners this week! I was suffering from a serious case of dinner burnout, so it felt like a giant accomplishment and I hope I haven’t peaked too soon in this new year.
And as I write this, Maya is having a full on squeak-a-thon in her crib as she puts herself to sleep. Hopefully. We’re starting to wonder if Maya will be a chatterbox when she grows up, since she seems to have an awful lot to say to us already. It’s going to be so fun to watch and see.
This weekend, if the weather holds up, we’re going to go see the Skyspace light show at Rice University at sunset. Bring on the Houston exploring in this new year! What are you up to for the weekend? Any fun plans?
Here are a few things I enjoyed from around the internet this week. Mostly easy reading for the weekend.
Oh Joy has a new nursery line at Target and it’s pretty adorable.
The differences between Sunni and Shia Muslims.
Behind the diverse faces of Houston.
Great tips for leaving less waste in 2016.
A sweet song for a Saturday morning.
A great plan of attack for dealing with the post-vacation blues.
Buy-me-once shopping is on the rise. I love this idea. Maybe we could apply it to cars one day!
Casseroles for cold evenings. For next week’s veggie influx!
Happy weekending, all!
