http://momtionary.blogspot.com/2013/05/skittles-ninja-grasshopper.html
Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Skittles the Ninja Grasshopper. I will mess you up. I was walking Philosopher Child home from school a few weeks ago and we decided to take the scenic. Once home, Philosopher Child wrangled it in to his bug catcher, gave it some lettuce and water, and left it alone to acclimate. Before Philosopher Child was due to take Skittles on a class visit, I told him to take him out of the bug catcher and hold him while I wiped down his home. Philosopher Child was afraid he'd injure the l...

http://momtionary.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 18, 2012. First of all, I haven't been here since January? Ok, my fault. Completely and utterly so. But there has been lots going on around here. Husband and I learned how to make jam. We planted what *started* as a really tiny garden that has boomed and now takes up way more space than I planned. But it's a good thing. That's a baby cherry tomato. And it seems like it is taking for.ev.er. But, anyway. He made a boomerang. As a mom, I'm so proud. And shocked. But mostly proud. One stay-a...

http://momtionary.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 24, 2013. Yes, Grandma is short. We just returned from vacation and visiting Husband's parents. While there, Mother-in-Law presented me with a tunic shirt that was very similar to the ones she had been wearing all summer. Very similar. Did I say similar? And, you guys, it is sooo very comfy. I wore it yesterday. As I sat on the couch with Little Viking, he noted that my shirt looks like one of Grandma's. I told him it was too big for Grandma, so she gave it to me. One stay-at-home mom try...

http://momtionary.blogspot.com/2013/02/herb-infused-vinegar-all-purpose-spray.html
Sunday, February 24, 2013. Herb Infused Vinegar All-Purpose Spray. My grandmother was alpha-wife. Every single area of her home was amazingly tidy. I'm talking 1950's TV show spotless. Not only that, it seemed effortless! Anyway, I didn't want to test the theory, and switched to nontoxic vinegar/water solution to clean the floor. Soon after, I gave birth to Little Viking. Around that time I started to realize that vinegar can be used to clean lots of things. Lots and LOTS of things! That suggested infusi...
