365 2010: Stella and Little Fella

The kids are really getting into the rat girls. Whenever they want to hold them, they put on their bathrobes so the girls can roam around in their sleeves without being too "spikey".

365 2010: jars

I finally realized that it is winter and time to start making soups and baking cookies. All sorts of deliciousness is happening in the kitchen these days.

365 2010: Fel eating a cookie at the library

On the way there, he was Mario and I was Blue Toad. We had to do a lot of firing, jumping, spinning and so on. When we arrived it was time to refuel with some homemade chocolate chip cookies before facing Bowser, our final challenge.

365 2010: not amused

Fel wasn't exactly thrilled about having his funny hair-do photographed, but he's just so darned cute, I couldn't help myself. Is that a crime?

365 2010: Monday Club

We are quite a group. Love.

Eliott had a blast at Chelsea's birthday party! They are really sweet friends!

365 2010: Ah, Friday Night

Here I am, all snuggled in with my pretzels and ice cream, long-awaited Sun Magazine issue and tons of blankets. Heaven, I'm in heaven.

I liked the way all these pretty beads looked on the green napkin. And Sherry also made a delicious soup! Top Chef!

Here's Karen adorably laughing on our day out together. A very lovely time was had.

Someone in town has these little fellows in the garden. The smaller one always falls off and I pick him back up because I like him.

365 2010: junior rat chicks

The rat girls got a whole lot of loving today!

365 2010: you know about the buzzards and me

2010 365: clock

In addition to the 365 project, I resolved to meditate every day. So far I have stuck to it and have been using Keeler's clock to time myself. It is a good clock for this purpose.

365 2010: walking in town

365 2010: a lovely snack

The rats love it, too.
