The Post In Which I Practice My Hyperlinks

I'm super excited because I just got my reusable produce bags from Etsy. Megan inspired me to try them after Erin's post on being green. Basically the idea is that instead of using the little plastic bags to gather your fruits and veggies at the grocery store, you bring your own reusable nylon bags, just like so many of us are now bringing our own shopping bags. And even though I don't do the "big" grocery run each week anymore, I still go at least once a week to re-stock on produce (holy cats, Caroline eats a lot of fruit) so these will be perfect!

On a related note, have you visited Etsy yet? It is an incredible website devoted to buying and selling handmade items, and I'm obsessed. I think J.J. is the one who discovered it for us. If you go, be sure to visit Meghan (Erin's sister, and very talented fashion designer) and Liz's stores.

P.S. I FINALLY got J.J.'s blog to link on my sidebar! Hooray! Everyone who doesn't already know her go say hi.

I sure hope you bought an extra set of those bags for me. Don't I get an anniversary gift for being in my house for a year or something?

Good job with the hyperlinks, btw.

Yep, you get your gift as soon as I get mine. As I remember, we moved in here first.

I need a tutorial in using hyperlinks. I have never looked it up, but I am not even sure where to look. E-mail me or leave me a message on here as to how I can use hyperlinks.

I hope you like the bags! I love them. Just don't put corn in the cob in them without cleaning them first. I poked a hole in one of my bags because I was in too much of a hurry to do it. In my defense I did have two kids along which is not normal for me. Otherwise, I have filled them and they have really been great!

Very well executed (the hyperlinks, that is). I'm gonna have to get myself some of those produce bags. We go through about a dozen a week!

Hey Samantha, your family is getting more beautiful by the day. William is a little doll baby and I love that shot of Caroline on the stoop stalking the "big girls"...Charlotte is a bit of a stalker herself so I can relate. and thanks for the etsy shoutout!

I finally figured out how to access your blog and am in tears to see all of you. Feels like being with you. Maybe one day we can get all of beautiful babies in the family together. Once I figure out how to retire, I'm hoping to see you. Love from your missing aunt,
Betsy
