Speaking of peaches, I have been binging on farmer's market peaches - I walk into my kitchen and smell them, and I can't resist.
Here they are mixed with chia seeds soaked in vanilla almond milk (if I have a very ripe banana, I mash it in there too). Oh my yum, this is my very, very, very favorite late night dessert. Do you know about chia seeds? Yes, they are like the babies of the chia pet - same thing. They are yummy and a fabulous source of protein, fiber, calcium, and Omega-3 fatty acids. Perfect pregnancy food. But good for everyone - my kids love them too. Here is a great post about chia seeds.
So, back to not blogging in two weeks... I have a lot of blog posts floating around in my brain, I just need to find the time to sit down and turn them into words. Things have just been really crazy - both good and bad - around here lately. We have had some issues, like me catching our oven on fire and being stove-less for the past week. And the heat, oh my gosh, the heat. But I've also really enjoyed some grown up time with some of my best friends, as well as just being with my kids during these last weeks of summer vacation.
And I have been organizing like crazy. It's a mix of normal nesting and also being completely freaked out about having two kids in school (even though Amelia is only in pre-K, she is at a "real" school this year) and a CRAZY toddler boy (really, he is crazy), and a newborn. Wow. So, I've decided we really need to get our act together - I've been stocking the freezer, buying school supplies and kids' clothes through the fall, cracking the whip on chores, and coming up with ways to hyper-organize everything from our pantry to our budget. And actually, that's what I want to blog about - some of the solutions that have worked for us, both long-term tested ones and new things I've come up with recently.
But for now, please just know, things are peachy. And I'll be back to reading and writing blogs soon. I promise.
