can you believe it?

Not quite yet 9 in the morning and 4 out of 5 of us are dressed, we've had breakfast, the toys are picked up, the dishes are done, most of the laundry is done, and I'm blogging. It's only taken me almost 30 years to get my act together. Better late than never, I suppose.

The girls offered the following observation: it's soft. But it also had a solid spot in the middle that felt kind of like a bottle of nail polish.

Jadyn guessed a headband for me, and Alaina guessed hairbands. They're pattern matchers, too.

The yellow and gray thing is called a palm peeler. There's a vegetable peeler blade on the underside of it, and you stick your finger through the ring on top. Pretty cool, huh? And gloves so I can look cute while I'm cleaning!

In case you were unaware, Saturday is pi day. Our Friday night group will be celebrating tomorrow. (Because we meet at my house and so I declared that we must celebrate pi day. Not like it's a real hardship - who in their right mind would turn down pie?) If there's anything I like to make as much as cookies, it's pie. Don't you wish you lived closer to me?
