The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

{chit chat} Miscellany Monday: A List

1. My geriatric tendencies are getting worse.  If being sound asleep by 10:00 wasn’t bad enough, I now enjoy the fascinating pastime of puzzle making.  1000 pieces are no match for me! 
2. M’s new line: “Hey Mamma, when I grow up, I’m gonna marry you.”  Sweet boy knows how to wrap his Mamma right around his finger, the little stinker.
3. Pigs in a Blanket is on the menu for lunch today.  I know, culinary greatness at its best.  (Bonus tip: I’m not a fan of the term “wienies”, so I’m forever grateful to Trader Joe’s for their labeling as “Cocktail Pups”. ) 
4. The boys are just dying to play in the snow, but we’ve yet to see any real snow this year!  Double bummer since we are in the middle of two weeks of winter “study” in school.
5. M and D got these awesome cars (they are called PlaSmart PlasmaCar) for Christmas and I think they have been the most used present so far. 
6. I read Start Something That Matters in two days. I give it five stars and a bunch of exclamation points. My husband and I have had a couple of amazing conversations directly because of it..lots of “dreamstorming” going on over here!
