Oak Saplings: Memphis, chapter 2
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2013/03/memphis-chapter-2.html
Monday, March 25, 2013. Memphis, chapter 2. Imagine Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, or Jerry Lee Lewis walking through this door. Jerry Lee Lewis' guitar player is still making music. We saw his Lincoln Town Car parked outside a nearby studio. National Civil Rights museum. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Farmers in the City. Marcy Family Road Trip. Liam and the family byrd.

Oak Saplings: Today's the day I spatchcocked a chicken
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2012/12/todays-day-i-spatchcocked-chicken.html
Friday, December 28, 2012. Today's the day I spatchcocked a chicken. Connor awarded me with the family trophy this week so I'm feeling confident, inspired, or maybe I just have ALOT of time on my hands and I tend to play in the kitchen when that happens. But back to the bird - I've done this before, but I called it butterflying. Something about the term "spatchcock" makes it new and exciting! It's lovely. Especially the spine! For the bird, I stuffed it with ricotta, herbs, lemon zest, salt and pepper.

Oak Saplings: Grateful
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2012/12/grateful.html
Friday, December 14, 2012. Twenty young children won't be coming home from school today. My mind can't grasp the enormity of this horrific act. About 2:00 this afternoon, I had to walk away from the computer and turn off the TV so I could compose myself before pick-up. I arrived to see this - our principal and assistant principal dressed in holiday costumes, delighted kids, lots of smiles. Certainly a strange juxtaposition. Also a reminder to be grateful. We have today. We have each other.

Oak Saplings: Geocaching
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2013/02/geocaching.html
Monday, February 25, 2013. The Webelos had a productive afternoon of geocaching. Most of the boxes were large, but they did manage to find a micro cache, too. It was about the size of a spam can. The boxes mostly contained cheesey Happy Meal toys, but the kids got to sign the geocache logs. One cache had been hidden since 2009. The first one - "Dingo Cache". Connor and Bruce located this one. (GPS in hand). Soaking after the 3-hour adventure. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Farmers in the City.

Oak Saplings: Mock Surgery Day at Brackenridge
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2013/02/mock-surgery-day-at-brackenridge.html
Saturday, February 09, 2013. Mock Surgery Day at Brackenridge. Camden and I had a great time at Brackenridge Hospital today. What was supposed to take about 2 hours stretched into almost 3. He was incredibly focused the whole time. One nurse commented that he had a "great bedside manner." He spent the most time with the plastic surgeons. Hmmmmmmm. Learning to give a shot. Human skin is much like a banana. Great practice for suturing! Waiting to intubate Plastic George. A little spinal surgery.

Oak Saplings: Memphis, chapter 1
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2013/03/memphis-chapter-1.html
Thursday, March 21, 2013. Memphis, chapter 1. A few scenes from our Spring Break trip . . . Crossing the mighty Mississippi. First stop- Soul Food in the wrong part of town. Purchased by The King at the age of 21. Snapped this for decorating inspiration- it's my color scheme! Stax was much more influential than I realized. Their humble and rather antiquated recording equipment. A little description of Stax. Their wall of soul. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Farmers in the City. Marcy Family Road Trip.

Oak Saplings: Homage to the Deuce
http://oaksapling.blogspot.com/2013/03/homage-to-deuce.html
Wednesday, March 06, 2013. Homage to the Deuce. And the award for Best Frog Face goes to . . . . Pop has already asked, "Where do I vote? Kindergarten is a magical year. Kids learn to read, to coexist with wacky people, to love learning, to be away from Mama, and to celebrate the genius of Dr. Seuss. Special shout out to the most amazing Kinder teacher ever - Ann Fisher! Seriously, look at how she's holding his hand. She's a God-send! He's already asked if he can repeat Kinder in her class.).
