Carrot & Miso Soup
In my post Who Takes Care Of You When You Are Down I wrote how my daughter, did a great job with her care of mommy yesterday. I was back to my normal self last evening. I instantly went into the kitchen and whipped up a dish. What was it? Carrot Miso Soup last evening. It was highly fragrant and delicious.
My only regret is that I did not make more. What’s miso? It’s a fermented
Chestnuts roasting by the open fire, jack frost nipping at your butt… (Ok so it does not go exactly like that but that is what my brother and I used to say!)
Alright so it’s too early for an open fire yet but I could not help but think of it as I looked at our remaining chestnuts.
You’re looking at the remaining chestnuts left. I wrote about them in Chestnut Tree: Early Morning Harvest It’s a little under 12 pounds and I still have chestnuts to harvest off our two trees. I called
I’m the one that usually does the nurturing, and I admit it’s hard to let someone step in and take over. I woke up this morning not feeling so great I truly believe it was the Brussels sprouts I had purchased from the grocery store. My daughter didn’t eat any. I’m stubborn I got up like normal fed Aiyana, played with her and started doing work.
My daughter is very preceptive and asked me, “Mommy what’s wrong?” “Oh nothing, I said. Aiyana got up and stood right in front of me looking directly in my eyes she said, “Mommy, it’s not nice to tell tales!” What’s wrong? In between my laughter I told her, “Mommy isn’t
A direct deposit was sent to my banking account from Google Adsense a few moments ago. Clicking on the picture will take you to a larger image. I’m very happy about my check. It’s not a lot for those who have done it for a while and are making more but I’m fairly pleased with what I have done. I started using Google Adsense on June 11th of 2007.
I just missed making it last month and I would have if I had not started testing my Google adsense placements. I stopped testing last week. It will be interesting to see what I make next month.
Bush Mackel I could not take a picture of me holding the actual Google Adsense check so this will have to do. :wink: Although I told Bush that I was going to use some of it to purchase Halo 3 I’m starting to feel guilty about spending money on myself. Yes, I feel guilty when I spend money on myself. I shouldn’t because I rarely do it but I do.
I should be receiving a check from my affiliate marketing sales sometime soon. I’m really eagerly awaiting that one it’s a lot more.

My daughter told me that yesterday as I was preparing her for bed. “Wha..” I thought to myself. “Where in the world did that come from? Then I remembered Chuck E. Cheese I took her this past weekend, and she had one of the little boys hooked. He played games with her paying with his tokens, and he showed her how to play games she wasn’t used to. After a while she became overwhelmed with all that attention. Attention she gets from mommy and came over to me for safety. No amount of convincing on the boy’s part would get her to part with mommy.
I guess she thought he was being “overbearing”. This morning, (yes my daughter was already awake a little before 5:00) although now she has gone back to sleep we talked about “boys” like her granddaddy, her uncles, and her brand-new cousin (all boys) we even talked about one of her friend who is a boy. He’s very nice to her. Now she thinks boys are “nice”.
I also told her how I was plagued with boys bothering me as a young girl. My first experience was at four. I still remember the boy tall, blond, green eyes, and he was five years old. One year older than me. He was the new kid in the neighborhood and he decided he liked me. I didn’t return the favor I had already pledged my affection to my loyalty to my Phillipino playmate. I still remember what he looks like also.
Anyway this little snot would try to pinch me if I did not sit by him in reading circle. I remember my heart sinking down into my toes when I walked into the library, and I saw him! He eagerly patted the space beside him, and I turned my head and sat by someone I didn’t know. How’s that for daring? “Humph, I thought, Why in the world do I want to sit by someone who’s so mean to me!”, I remember he pushed me off my inchworm when I did not kiss him. I couldn’t stand that kid! Thankfully we moved soon afterwards so I didn’t have to be bothered with him again although I missed my three year old buddy. ;-)
Question: As a child which one was you were you the type that lavished all the unwanted attention on someone or were you on the receiving end?
