Monday Eating grass… Boy cousins swinging Tuesday Roasting HUGE […]

Wildflower Help

June 2, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 6 Comments

Anybody know of a good website to identify wildflowers? We went and picked these wildflowers last week but have no idea what they are called. I must say, with all the rain and cooler weather we have been having it sure has greened up what would otherwise be a very “beige” landscape. It’s been beautiful […]

Lovable Squishable Kissable Hershey

May 27, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 9 Comments

Hershey is 7-1/2 months old! Where did the time go? She is definitely starting to develop a little personality all her own. She’s a petite little thing, much like Bon Bon was as a baby. She only weighs 15 pounds. We just started feeding her baby cereal and other foods a couple of weeks ago. […]

Wordfull Wednesday – Service for Others

May 25, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 5 Comments

A kind word, a simple deed. Opportunities to serve are limitless and present themselves everyday. The best way for children to learn to serve is by example. I remember seeing my parents help others in a variety of ways when I was growing up. I especially remember the small acts of service they did for […]

Down and Out

May 21, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 7 Comments

See this pretty little dear? She’s got some sort of flu bug. Poor thing was throwing up last night and dry heaving really bad. Her whole body would go completely limp after each little bout. I absolutely hate when my babies are sick. I feel so terrible for them. And I’m sure they feel hopeless […]

Cookie Mosaic

May 20, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 3 Comments

Miss Cookie Monster has more nicknames than the rest of the kids except for Hershey. She is smart as a whip. Which is wonderful but also frightening at the same time. Her memorization skills are phenomenal. © 2007-2009 Chocolate on my Cranium, LLC all rights reserved © 2007-2013 Chocolate on my Cranium, LLC all rights […]

Good Reading

May 14, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 8 Comments

I’ve been getting the itch to make more quilts. It’s the fault of two books. This one my parents sent to me a couple of weeks ago. The Farmer’s Wife Sampler Quilt: Letters from 1920s Farm Wives and the 111 Blocks They Inspired It’s a collection of excerpts from essays written by farm wives in […]

Handcut Silhouettes

May 11, 2010 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 1 Comment

Ah, the silhouette. Timeless, classic, endearing. I LOVE silhouettes. I use them on my bookplates. And recently, while going through some old files I found some silhouettes I’d done of my three oldest girls when they were little and still had some baby fat on them. So darling! There are plans in the works to […]
