Jupiter's Child

To all of our Austin friends: There's only one reason to venture forth into the Black Friday madness, and this is it. The Blue Genie Art Bazaar is an awesome show with some great artists (including, ahem, Jupiter's Child). It opens Nov. 29 and runs straight through till Christmas Eve. If you're looking to buy local this season, we're here for you.

There's still time to order Advent calendars! We have some lovely ones imported from England.

If your kids look at you blankly when you say "Go outside and play," here are a few ideas. In fact, this is one of the best collections of things to do outside that I've ever seen:

Or you can say what my grandmother used to tell us when she wanted us out from under her feet: "Go sit on the curb and wait for a parade to come by."

Our egg crop today. I just love all the colors. Thank you hens! Any other chicken whisperers out there?

Happy Spring, everyone!
