The Black Duck

I'm obsessed with Oaxacan black pottery.

The other day, my toddler threw my Oaxacan black duck pottery I found at a thrift shop on the ground and it found its final resting place in the trash. That duck had a lot of personality and it always put a smile on my face. I had a bad feeling I wouldn't find another like it.

As I searched for a replacement, I came across one that looked similar... as well as other Oaxacan made goods that I'm obsessing about.

We Love Our UPS Man

He brings us goodies! Tonight my kids got a special care package from Native Shoes. My kids are crazy about them. They are easy to slip on and cuter than crocs. Perfect summer shoes since they can get wet. That reminds me that summer is almost over! How did that happen?

Working It Out

As if we can squeeze anything more into our busy days...
After having two kids, I still have a closet full of clothes I hold onto in hopes the twenty...er...fifteen pounds of post pregnancy weight will one day disappear. It's been a few years and it hasn't budged.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Sometimes you need a little... actually... BIG push in the right direction. Check out my amazing trainer who is going to transform me.

This is Sasha's before and after. She said she has topped 175lbs.  Hard to believe when you see what she looks like now.  Check her out: http://www.sashabrownpt.com/
