Farmer's Market
Jan. 17th, 2009 07:55 pm4 cauliflowers, small
2 winter cabbage
4 kilos of carrots
2 large parsnips
1 swede
14lb onions
14lb potatoes
1 jar raspberry jam
8 chipolata sausages
Now we need to write a proper meal plan and figure out how to stick to it. And this time, it needs to include lunches.
And curry.
And be 50% vegetarian.
Today was Baby Jo's third birthday; on her birth day I was 9 weeks pregnant with Emer and Jo's sister Iz came here while Jo was being born. We all went to hospital to welcome her home, and Rob held the new baby on his shoulder, the second new baby he'd held that way ever, and he and I both new that the baby we were growing was the best idea since Linnea.
Linnea was amazed and thrilled and wanted her own baby sister.
Yesterday a friend asked me to be on her list of People With Whom The Toddler Can Be Left while she has her new baby, due any minute now. I was very pleased to accept. She seemed to think I was doing her a favour; I feel honoured. It's an important job, caring for the toddler while the baby is being born. The carer is involved in something that is necessary and exciting and helpful and good. Baby Jo hardly knows us, really, but I feel very special towards her.
Today we also bought Linnea a clock for her bedroom, and Linnea finally chose a picture for me to paint on her bedroom wall; she wants a rainbow, with rain and sun and a pot of gold, and a panda, a zebra, and a bird. Rob and I were thinking tester pots.
