COME IN!

welcome to my blog...my mission is to give you a glimps of my life as a mother, wife, decorator, painter, and active woman. my inspiration comes from traveling, my education, and my family and friends. i have to admit upfront, however, that my "education" does not include a background in english, so please be patient with my grammar and spelling. i am, however, happy to share on this blog what i learn in my daily life from painting and decorating. here you will also find a real account of my struggles, my experiences, and my many reasons to rejoice. april, or the month of the diamond, is when my first and only daughter, mollie, was born. she is the reason i am a joyful mother, wife, and person today. i appreciate your time, and thank you in advance for your advice. perhaps one day you will be reading from my website but for now this homemade blog will do:-)
love, laura

Mary Mary quite contrary

...how does your garden grow? 
with silver bells and cockle shells
and pretty maids all in a row
(from top left) strawberries, onion, potato, garlic.  still working under ground (not pictured): tomatoes, carrots, herbs

the garden is almost ready, now i just need to read up on how to harvest a garden.  i can't say it looks like the garden i pictured as a child reciting that poem, but hopefully it will make some good eating!

it won't be long before i can teach kiddos first hand about the importance of eating clean.  what better way than to start from the roots!  jamie oliver's food revolution is such an inspiring story.
