Weston actually made this for his grandpa, but I stole it. It’s a dino.
Another one from the things-eating-other-things library
This one is called “Mermaid Eating Clams”.
Spam…but really it’s an excuse to post this photo of Julie…
So, the following was an email I received from Julie, Goddess of the Internet…made me smile.
I have a little less than a million comments in moderation that need to be spammed into outer space, but I can’t get through them all to mark them as spam before my computer says “fatal error. you have exceded the time blah blah” –because there are too damn many of them!!
Should I ignore? do I care?

Disturbing Children’s Drawings
Julia has been drawing a lot lately. This is one of her recent themes: sperm whales eating squid.
Book Reviews by Julia – Honk!
I like Honk because Honk is a great story because Honk really really really goes into the Swan Lake ballet. And Swan Lake is a great movie. I’ve seen the movie too. But it’s a little scary, because in the Swan Lake movie, the swan doesn’t marry the prince, and they die at the end. They don’t marry at all because at one party they don’t usually have the swan princess, and the mean sorcerer tricks the prince. So the swan lake girl is trapped up, and that’s how the mean wizard tricks the prince. And it’s very scary because at the end they really do want to marry each other. All the other princesses that were changed into swans were so beautiful because they all had white dresses and beautiful — like lapis lazuli
Conrad ooh ooh-ooh
Conrad has reduced the English language to the bare essentials and now carries on conversations using tones and syllables. “I love you” is now “ooh-ooh,” “Thank you” is “do-do,” and “May I have that, please?” is “do da, de”…Claire and I understand him and respond in tones and syllables. “I love you too” is “ooh-ooh ooh” and “You’re welcome” is “do do-do”.
I like onions. They have layers.
I never liked onions as a kid. Hated them in fact. I remember people telling me that cooked onions are OK because you couldn’t even taste them. Not true. I still didn’t like them.
I didn’t want to be a picky eater in Poland, so I devised a plan to make me like onions. I think I was just curious what people saw in them. So, a couple weeks before leaving, I ordered extra onions on everything, most notably the “Mike” sandwich from the now defunct Tafoya Brothers. After eating extra onions on everything for two weeks, I developed a love for onions comparable to my love for garlic and jalapenos. Maybe I just like stinky food. I guess I should try the same with fish — that’s a bit too stinky for me though.
Weston the Warrior
I don’t have a clue what to write for a caption on this one. Can anyone think of a good one?
I wanted to add fashion credits…like sandals by Cole Haan, shield by Farmland…the problem is I don’t know who made the paper towel roll and I don’t know what Weston thinks the stocking cap made by Grandma Great is. The helmet was his present from Norway, and the gloves are Claire’s.
Happy Valentine’s Day
Weston made this valentine for me. It’s a shark. He stuck it in my shoe.
