Perfect. Just perfect. This could possibly be my favorite photo I’ve ever taken. I love it so much I want to enlarge it as large as I can and hang it on every wall in my house. It’s so timeless and sweet.
Even better, it’s my family.
I’ll tell you what no one told me [...]

We’re Smart

February 27, 2010

Me: [talking sweet to Turk] See? He likes sugar better than vinegar. How does that saying go?
Justin: You attract more bees with honey than you do with vinegar. Except that you don’t. You attract more bees with pollen.

February 7, 2010
