Bubbles

I am kind of overwhelmed at the response to my How to Cut a Watermelon post.  Actually, overwhelmed doesn’t quite encompass the whole thing.  I was totally shocked to see it as the featured food post on the WordPress homepage all day Friday and Saturday (update: and Sunday!).  It is still a little bit surreal to me.  So so cool, but so very unexpected.  I took a picture.  But it seems weird to post it here… frankly, it’s weird to talk about it.  But do I want to say hello to my new readers.  (Hello!)

I had big plans to finish a cutie commissioned apron that has been languishing on my dining room table, but I got swept up in all the excitement and I’ll get to it tomorrow during naptime.  So instead of doing what I was supposed to be doing, Creamie and I blew off the afternoon and instead of finishing our projects (hers are just stacking up around the house, let me tell you) we spent our time blowing bubbles.

It took her a little while to get the hang of it.  And after a few bubbles in the mouth episodes she got it down.  And at least once every hour she says “Bubbeee!  Mama, Bubbeee!!!”  Adorable? Yes.She actually got pretty good at it.  And I know exactly how we are going to spend this afternoon. And tomorrow, and the next day…

“Bubbeee!  Mama, Bubbeee!!!”
