Tagged!


Yes, I know that I have answered questions very similar to these not so long ago, but I was tagged by one of my favorite bloggers - Ciara at Milkmoon!  

What is your current obsession: Photography - basically stalking my favorite photographers and then trying to see if Francis and I can create something fabulous.

What are you wearing now: my new knee-highs, khaki capris, a white long sleeve t, a brown short sleeved t, and an apron -  I am making dinner~


Who was the last person you hugged: Finn Henry (not unlike Ciara!) - my two year old angel.  

If you were a tree, what tree would you be: a katsura tree - they have pretty leaves, a gorgeous color in the autumn, and smell like cotton candy when their leaves change!


What's for dinner: Roast chicken, grilled asparagus, and rosemary roasted potatoes.


What was the last thing you bought: pastel colored m&ms for my candy jar for Easter


What are you listening to right now: Literally - the Goodnight Show on Sprout (Finn Henry's evening routine before dinner) - but as far as music is concerned, Rupa and the April Fishes - *LOVE* it



What is your favourite weather: I like when it is mixed a bit.  Lately it tends to rain at night (or snow sometimes) and then we see the sunshine during the day.  Then, the odd day of gray.  For me, a perfect mix of cozy winter and cheerful spring weather!

What is on your bedside table: Three cups of tea by Greg Mortenson, various Bon Appetite and Gourmet magazines, my project basket from Maya (wow, deja vu..  :)  )

What is your most challenging goal right now: to stay calm while raising a house full of boys

Say something to the person who tagged you: You have the mothering skills I aspire to!  I hope to meet you one day~

 If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished, where do you want it to be: I adore our home, but I really like a lot of land around a house.  And then there is the French countryside...

Favourite vacation spot: right about now I could definitely use a family trip to someplace warm and sunny!

Name the things you cannot live without: aside from my family, I have to say my technology

What would you like to have in your hands right now: a blank check to make a difference in the lives of people who are suffering in this economy.

What is your favourite tea flavour: I use green tea in my chai, and I really like green jasmine.

What would you like to get rid of: I am with Ciara on ignorance, but my second choice would be hunger.

If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go: if I only had an hour, in my current state of mind, I would go to Minnesota to see my daddy.

If you could have your portrait painted/made by any famous artist from any era, who would you choose: I am not great with artists - what about photographed?  I would love to spend an afternoon having Mishelle photograph me!

what fun this was to read! Love reading your posts, and learning a little more about what life with 3 boys is like! (raising my one, precocious daughter is all God has blessed me with, so far...and it is challenge enough!) Blessings to you and your family! (and daddy in minnesota!)
