Did you know that brussels sprouts has an “s” at the end of brussel?
I wasn’t aware of that extra S, but now I will never forget.
You never know when a fact like that helps you win a game of Cranium.
Just wanted to gift you a bit of knowledge today.
You’re welcome.
And speaking of brussels sprouts, I actually have a point.
My favorite thing to eat when we roast brussels sprouts are the crispy “chips” from leaves falling off onto the pan.
I learned I was not alone.
Check out this recipe. Genius. Just genius.
I am really all over the map today. Yikes.
This past weekend was relaxing–partly by choice, partly because I didn’t have much of a choice.
Yes. I got the lovely head cold, keeping me laying low for most of the weekend.
There is nothing sweeter though, than listening to Harlow’s giggles as she and her daddy “work” in the basement. She works at her tool table, she chases the doggy, and of course–makes a mess of everything Andy tries to clean up.
Nothing sweeter.
But a sweet toddler making “break-bis” for mommy in her robe? That’s pretty sweet too.
See more of Harlow’s kitchen here.
Order it here!
Huge thank you to everyone who commented, emailed, texted and tweeted advice and suggestions for beating the winter funk! I did break down and buy a sun lamp! I couldn’t believe the price {less than $30}, and I’ve heard great things about it. I promise to keep you all posted!
And really, thank you all for loving me from afar–even having never met me! I was really encouraged to know that I wasn’t alone in feeling down in the winter months.
I am so excited about this coming week and month–so much to share with you all!
xo.

That little kitchen set is soo cute. I love the brussels crisps!
isn’t it fun! We found a great deal on it – it was cheaper than the kitchen from IKEA!!
Brussels chips are the BEST – I could literally eat them by the pound.
SAME HERE!!!!! Andy hates them = more for meeeeee!!
Yay for getting a sun lamp. They can make the world of a difference.
Brussels Sprouts are my fave. I was forced to eat them a lot growin up, so it took adulthood to really fall in love with them again. This soup helped a ton: http://www.thescribblepadblog.com/2012/02/e-t-your-brussels-sprouts.html
And Harlow’s robe is beyond adorable. Love her crazy post-bath hair.
OOOOOH! That soup looks amazing!!!!!!
Yay for the sunlamp! Curious to see how you like it! What is absolutely hilarious about your post is literally at then end of last week I learned that it was BrusselS sprouts too! I had no idea. Love the “chips” too! My favorite part!
i know!! It kind of makes me feel like I need to pronounce it differently now, too!!
Kacia, what a cutie!
Thanks, Margaret! xo!
Her kitchen is adorable. We got Harry a kitchen for Christmas, but so far his favorite part about it is slamming the doors. Oy.
Oh Johanna!! This just made me laugh out loud! She loves “drumming” with her pots and pans on the wood floor. OY!
Harlow’s robe is to die for.
