Not-So-Secret Garden

Posted on September 16, 2009 by BrassyDel

Almost three years ago, Hubbles and I bought a run-down, foreclosed house that had been vacant for months. Unfortunately for Hubbles, I guess I saw a lot of what the house could be and not enough of what the house was. One aspect of that is the yard. You can tell that, at some point in time, it was gorgeous….

Fluff Butt Giveaways

Posted on September 5, 2009 by BrassyDel

As many of my friends know (much to their repeated annoyance, I’m sure) I’m a huge fan of cloth diapers. Baby H has been in cloth since about two weeks old, and it’s difficult sometimes since she is so, so tiny. Cloth diapers that rave about being OS (one size) and can take your child “from birth to potty training!”…

Just for the Halibut

Posted on August 7, 2009 by BrassyDel

Recently, some wonderful folks that Hubbles and I are lucky to call friends went to Alaska, where they caught about a zillion pounds of Halibut. They gifted us with some tasty, tasty fish and I tried out a new recipe last week for it. The recipe is from one of my favorite recipe go-to sites, All Recipes. I made Halibut…

A Day in the Life

Posted on August 3, 2009 by BrassyDel

A day in Tank’s life: “Tank! Get out of the baby’s carseat!”“Tank! Get out of the baby’s chair!”“Tank! Leave Matti’s bone alone!”“Tank! Get out of the baby’s diaper!”“Tank! Shush!”“Tank! Get out of the baby’s face!”“Tank! You’d better not be eating poop!”“Tank! Get out of the window!”“Tank! Off!”“Tank! Do you have to drool water over every inch of carpet?”“Tank! That’s the…

Body After Baby

Posted on July 29, 2009 by BrassyDel

A pretty common post title on the blogosphere (especially amongst the veritable army of mommy bloggers). Someday I will wear pants that zip again! Not today. Today I wear mismatched PJs and I haven’t had a chance to shower or eat breakfast yet. Anywho, Baby will be 9 weeks old tomorrow. I gained 26 pounds during my pregnancy with her…

Kissaluvs!

Posted on July 9, 2009 by BrassyDel

We’ve been cloth diapering Hanners since she got big enough to fit her diaper covers (she was born at under 6 pounds, so she was too tiny at first!) and it’s been great. Yes, the disposable diapers were convenient, but they were also expensive and made her tushy VERY red and she started getting diaper rash after a couple of…
