Kitchen ideas....


I might have mentioned that our kitchen is a little small. This fact is exacerbated by the large "American style" refrigerator- which we have no problem filling. We went to Semeraro's (kind of like an Italian ikea) looking for some ideas. We think this would work- maybe put the girls in those chairs- that would really help to keep them from getting under our feet.

This was the display right as you walk in the door. It's a very modern, chic store- yet practical too : )

Well, the hanging chairs are a magnificent idea, your steamies could be decorative children --chilling out there when you cook and clean--this would be the perfect solution to get the floor mopped! :-) Hope you guys are having a super weekend. Thanks for the update!

Oh no! It is back to the sixties with the streamline, clean, chic ick-ea chairs. Great idea for hanging out. Groovy! And, how many have you ordered?

Have a Very Merry Un-birthday to you, to you....

The tallest of the small is 6.5 years old. We had the usual half-birthday fun. At school, on her half-birthday, one of her friends told her that half birthdays aren't real. She mentioned this to me when she got off the bus. Then she asked me if half birthdays are "real." Hmmmmm. "What do you think?" I asked her (love that parenting technique). Well, she explained that lots of people don't celebrate their half birthdays, most people probably. But since we do, they are real for us. Sounds good to me : ) You get to celebrate their lives twice as many times- how can I resist, besides, it involves CAKE people! Happy half-birthday!

One afternoon, we decided to go into Pordenone to walk around and check out the city, perhaps to have a tasty cappuccino. Sounds fairly simple....we set off in the morning and all went well until we got into the city. Driving here is like playing a video game, only if you hit a pedestrian, you are going to Italian jail for life. There are people walking, people riding bicycles, dogs running, cars, motor scooters, taxis, and buses with which to contend, not to mention one-way streets and the penchant for Italians to post 10 signs when we Yanks would only post one- maybe two if it were a really scary situation. No small task- also, there are usually two small folks in the seat behind me saying, "mama?" over and over again. Now you would think that Juney and I would have our Navigator/Co-pilot roles fairly well ironed out by now. That is also not quite the case- shall we say we need more practice with our roles? I think that would be fair, Nanny, no? I think this might be the on...
