We're not homeless, just busy.

We're finally getting settled into our home in Hays. Originally, we wanted to get a video walk-thru of the new place to compliment the video of the old place, but we can't seem to keep the house organized long enough and find the time to do it (we'll get it done). There are still a bunch of little things left to do, and it seems like weekends just aren't long enough. We'll get it back to a relative norm eventually, but in the meantime, here are some pictures from the long-overdue 2008 family album. For the lazy, just have a peek @ the slideshow below -

Transcript from a typical family dinner discusion.

"What's 'family' mean?"

"You tell me, Evan. What does 'family' mean?

"Um,

smiling,

happy,

angry,

frustrated."


Two and a half years on Earth to figure that out, and a lifetime to understand why.

The Cookbook Wiki Experiment.

So, I'm looking for an easy-to-use means to keep my recipes & such that I can get to offline as well. I decided to take the plunge with Tiddlywiki. Yeah i know - there's no integration w/ blogger whatsoever & maybe that makes it ugly/clunky. Just the same, I could store all of my recipes in one html file on a flash drive if i wanted to.

Give the new Cookbook Wiki a go, but know that I haven't imported all of my recipes just yet. That said, the old site still has them all if you need them.

Hello! Long time, no see.

You may have noticed that the old family blog has really languished over the last year. Between kids and work, we've just not been able to maintain it all that well. So, we've pared things down & tried to make some time-saving & ease-of-use changes via Blogger & Picasa. What this means for you the reader is more updates & more pictures (we hope). I'm still fooling around with how I wanna do Recipes (looking like another blog presently; I'll let ya know). In the meantime, you can still get to the old site, but be sure to update your bookmarks!
