New Fave Show


Torchwood. If you are a sci-fi junkie (like me), love Star Trek: TNG (oh, sorry...The Next Generation), X-Files, Eureka, etc...you just might fall for Captain Jack Harkness and the rest of the Torchwood gang. A spin-off from the super hokey 'Dr. Who' series (I haven't seen the new Dr. Who...only remember the old ones), Torchwood is just hokey enough and only at times. It's from BBC America, so be forewarned about some thick accents (except for Capt. Jack who is American, apparently). Aliens, time rifts, sex, humor and a cool, underground compound. What more could you ask for? We found it on Netflix. Just finished Season 1 (from 2006) and are working on Season 2 now. Check it out...let me know what you think! :)

Here are my latest tie-dye creations. Finally did a peace sign and we think it came out great! Of course, I don't have to make it as big as the shirt (doh!). I also did some onesies for the multiple pregos out there. :) Gotta keep the chilled out, laid back, hippie-thing going through future generations, right? People these days are too tense and I think many have forgotten how to relax and enjoy the ride.

The back of the peace sign shirt is a mix of the purple & blue...should have taken a pic of that side too. Anyway, it's now one of Lon's favorites. Yea!
Another benefit of the tie-dye onesies, besides having the best dressed baby on the block, spit up, food and other typical baby-mishaps won't show up as well! Always thinking...til next time. (I do apologize for the blurry onesie pic. I've never claimed to be a photographer!)

Now, that's the life for me!


Sid the Science Kid...have you heard of him? If you have a small child, you may have. If you love PBS (especially in the mornings), you probably have. Sid wants to know everything about everything and he LOVES science! His family and friends sing and dance all the time. And he has the coolest (Kindergarten?) teacher, Teacher Susie. She sings, dances and teaches very cool stuff. There are only four kids in his class and they have an awesome classroom and playground all to themselves. Ahhh...that would have rocked! Not that I didn't enjoy the school, friends and teachers I had during grade school. They were pretty cool, too. But I definitely don't remember all the singing and dancing. Very fun! Here's to finding the simple pleasures in life...don't forget to live, love, laugh...three of my favorite things.
Happy Monday!
