I decided I’d pretend like I knew how to paint yesterday. It didn’t turn out too bad. I may try another next week. Spring is here for sure now. There is pollen covering every surface. Ryan came home last night and said, “What, do we now live in Pollenesia?”
We just finished up watching Downton Abbey and now it’s just over? We have to wait until September for more? What the what what? What do we watch now with our one hour of t.v. time? Lucas loves the intro. music to the show and will drop everything to come and see and hear it. He also hums along with it. I can’t stand the extremeness of that cuteness. But seriously, what can we watch now? Any suggestions out there?
I was looking for some new recipes and then came across some reference to New York Style Salad. What is this? I must know more info. I love salads. So I ended up at the Pioneer Woman’s site and read her description and now I am obsessed with having myself a big ‘ole salad party. And why can’t we have a salad restaurant in our city? These vegetarians have a hard time getting some decent “fast” food when we’d like to.
Also, have you seen the little video where it’s all snippets of movies that are pieced together to sing some of Lionel Richies, “Hello”. How long did that take? Speaking of Lionel, this poster still cracks me up. It is making my eyes water right now. I need help. I don’t even know why it makes me laugh so much.

I always feel like I’m creating extra work by making salads that way, but they really are better! And this salad is awesome: http://checkoutgirlcrafts.blogspot.com/2011/06/porch-life.html
I gobbled up Downton really quickly. I also like Mad Men, Parks & Recreation, and Louis (warning — super dark and possibly uncomfortable if you are not into that). If you have Netflix streaming, the Eames documentary on there was good, too. Uh, most of my choices are not for children’s waking hours.
I would watch Parks & Rec with them present though (not that they wouldn’t spend the entire show shouting BORING — everything that isn’t a cartoon is apparently BORING). Also, if you can find it, there is this BBC show called Look Around You that is a spoof on ’80s science news, and we find it hilarious. Most people are perplexed by it, but we love it. For some reason I think you might like it.

I would suggest the Cranford series, Berkeley Square, or Bleak House with Gillian Anderson.
That Lionel Richie poster cracks me up!

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I will definitely look into them.
Glad Lionel made you laugh too.
