by gidget food

First of all. My friend Sarah is so awesome, that upon reading my last blog post, she proceeded to bring me a copy of She & Him’s Vol. 1 CD that very night as we met to hang out/volunteer at Fill-a-Belly. Such a fun surprise! So, on to today. Some sweet friends came over for [...]

Dance Party

by gidget family

Today I did some good ol’ fashioned blog hopping, which I believe started with Lisa Leonard, skipped through (among others) Red Velvet Art and somehow ended at She & Him. Then I fell in love. I couldn’t get enough of their music on their website (without spending) so I found a little more by way [...]

I’m Back!

by gidget life is beautiful

My sweet Macbook is back online! As sad as I am to have lost some photos and docs, I’m thankful I had backed up somewhat recently and to be honest I’ve actually been enjoying re-setting up my computer. Macs are so fun. I now have Snow Leopard as the operating system which has some slight [...]

I hope none of you have ever seen something blinking on your beloved Mac screen that looks like the above photo. I did on Thursday morning. After a phone call with Apple Tech Support and a date at the Genius Bar, it was confirmed. The Death of a Hard Drive. So here I am commandeering [...]

Encyclopedia of Me: B is for…

by gidget life is beautiful

Books I’ve always been an avid reader. One summer, as a child, I checked out about 15 chapter books to read on our 3-week long vacation up to Northern California, and then proceeded to read them all on the 15-hour drive up there. My problem these days is having a hard time choosing– I’m always [...]

Avogolemeno Soup

by gidget family

This soup was by request by my dad. His mom, my Yaya, used to make it. I had a couple of requests for the recipe when I mentioned making it on facebook a few weeks ago, so here it is… “Yaya” is Greek for grandmother (although I think it is actually spelled differently, this is [...]

His Word in My Heart: March 2010

by gidget faith

How’re your memory verses going? I usually go over mine when we are out on a walk. I recite them, cards set in my stroller’s caddy, as we walk around the neighborhood. It refreshes me spiritually and physically and I definitely feel it when I haven’t been out in a few days. This familiar verse [...]

Encyclopedia of Me: A

by gidget adoption

A is for Adoption Right now, the only word that comes to mind for the letter A has to be adoption. It’s a pretty consuming topic around these parts. We think often about our baby that will someday join our family, and try to wait patiently for the Lord’s timing. I feel like everywhere we [...]
