Dear Loyal Readers (all 2 of you),
Thank you for sticking by The Cherry Tree in our dark days and our experiences with rant-writing and hulahooping. I promise more cute kid pics and uplifting writing will carry us smoothly into Fall.
Here are a few of my ideas...in no particular orders. Just a stream of my own thoughts. Read-on and please enjoy.
-Whole Foods brand lime popcicles are the most delicious popcicles you can buy. Do yourself a favor and pick up a box or two.
-Someone should make a cinnamon toast flavored ice cream. Or how about oatmeal cookie? If you have connections at Ben and Jerry's, please give me due credit. Thank you.
-Eliza is almost 1! She can climb up and down the stairs - well enough that I almost trust her to do it w/o supervision. She makes an amazing snoot face. She still loves the mama milk. She likes fruit as much as her bro. She is thinking about talking, but hasn't yet figured out what to say.
-Washington state is a WONDERFUL place for people to relocate.
-Chapel Hill & Carrboro are great places to stay.
-Sawyer got in the car from preschool the other day eating a chunk of bread. I said, "whatcha eating?" He said "Challah" Nice. He also said that they say "Shabbat Shalom" at preschool. With all the languages he is exposed to in my family, I think Hebrew or Yiddish might be his first 2nd language!
-Neighbors are important. Yesterday our neighbor Jonah fell in our pond! He was a good sport and it was very exciting. Then he and Sawyer were playing in Jonah's camper and Sawyer got his first shiner! We have a path between our houses so there will definitely be more excitement (and injuries) to come.
-Arrested Development is (was) an amazingly funny show. If you have not seen it you should rent the first season and start from the beginning. It really is pee-in-your-pants funny and the Chicken Dance takes it to a whole other level.
-A good haircut will make you feel renewed. A bad haircut will make you want to wear a hat.
-"A boy of quality should not be threatened by a girl for equality" That's what my kelly green shirt says in a picture taken of me at an ERA march in about 1982.
Stream over. Thanks for reading.

Who is moving to Washington state? And hey, what about California?
Also: Oatmeal Cookie Chunk from B&J. Somebody read your mind from the future.
Hey, you just missed the big Ben & Jerry's 'new flavor' contest. I would have voted for either 'Good Batch Diet Soda,' 'Cheese Log De-Lite,' or 'Full Tray.' Hollah for the Challah, baby.

are you thinking of relocating to washington state? i agree on the cinnamon and also would like to suggest apple pie ice cream...heavy on the cinnamon. thank you for the dvd idea. the newest show we are getting on fox japan is huff; it came on today at 4:00pm... i guess it is cable afterall though for us foreigners it is the only tv we have.
Yeah, do tell about the Wash. St. comment! I don't like it one bit! (Unless you mean that the mean hippies in C'boro should relocate there).
Breyer's Fried Ice Cream (that's actually what it's called) is about the best ice cream I think I've ever, ever had. As I recall, it's cinnamon ice cream with fried tortillas in it. The salty/sweet combo is to die for. I haven't seen it around here, but I did eat it in Michigan this summer.
Have you guys been to Locopops in Durham??
