Weekly what:nots...

Here we are on a very foggy Sunday. The blur of the past week was punctuated by exciting news - we have found a new place to live! Whoop whoop. In a little over three weeks we will be moving from a 'compact' apartment to a ginormous house, complete with backyard. I am seriously considering equipping R and the boys with personal locator beacons or walkie-talkies. And as I type all the things we've had in storage in New Zealand are wending their way across the high seas to Portland. Ridiculously exciting. As for the weekend - R arrived home from TED on Friday full of inspiring tales, we dined out at Castagna (the carrots with crunchy malt and walnut ice cream were yum-diddly-scrumptious), yesterday was a blur of Saturday-ness culminating in the viewing of Waiting for Superman - a blatantly raw and troubling documentary on schools in the US - well worth watching. And here we are - the weekend has almost gone. With R leaving this afternoon (for Morocco!) the boys and I shall once again be three. But we shall be busying ourselves in preparation for the big move and the usual this-n that. I hope you've had a wonderful weekend and that week ahead is full of goodness.

  1. Your move is exciting news. Backyard -- woo hoo! I agree, Waiting for Superman is well worth watching. Carrots with crunchy malt and walnut ice cream, wow, I've never heard of such a thing. Seems pretty fantastic. I'm a Sofia fan too.
