* Currently trying to cook my way through this delicious (and I mean delicious) cookbook.
 
*Every Tuesday on my 20ish minute drive back, I'm listening to my favorite reader match-make books with others on her new podcast!
 
*The newest obsession of mine in expensive children's clothes that I'll never buy. Could it be they'll take over my love affair with Tea? That plaid top with snaps!
 
*When I seriously need a good laugh about this year's election...
 
*Every prayer and hopeful thing she writes, but this week, this one.
 
*I just caught up on the first season of Invisibilia, and I'm hooked. You've got a few more months before they start season 2, plenty of time for those hour-long episodes.
 
*My kids are starting a coding subscription and I'm super excited for it to be a part of our curriculum next year!
 
*Can. Not. Wait. (Summer 2016)
 
*Rise of the Robots from NOVA is on our weekend queue for the kids.
 
*About to start this book. Have you read it?
 
*Do you like travel? Are you a foodie? My free way of doing both.

*I'm not a player, either.

I love the idea behind tools for tiny hands, i.e. the Montessori Method , and like to have Lukka 'figure things out for himself', even when he is playing. I try to have the most simple and basic toys available for 3 reasons: a) simple toys generally have less parts, which means less of a hassle for me b) simple toys inspire way more creativity and imagination than do 'exact replica' toys c) they are much more aesthetically pleasing to look at, therefore, not making every nook and cranny of our house an eyesore!

I didn't want to say anything online until that happened. We've been steadily spending heaps of time with friends and family, all while slowly p...
