I know, I should post more often if I want to enjoy my almost new blogging experience.
I had a hectic week, I'd say "as usual" .
When I started this blog, I decided I'd organize my time to be able to blog, shop, read and exercise. I haven't done any...except for reading. I started "the secret language of children", fascinating !
For the rest of my "free" time (I mean without my lovely children, 6 hours a day !), I drove all around the countryside for days, looking for the Magical Land to build our nice house. I visited a few small villages, talked with dozens real estate agents, went on websites to check about contamination and other nice stuff you don;t want to live around, etc. It was exhausting, especially the driving part. But that was good because 6 months into our project, we might have found the Magical Land. We'll have a new look at it tomorrow. It has a huge fantastic view over wheat fields but it's still in the village. We are not that far from malls or the city.However, the view is great but I am scared it could be the opposite. I love nature, I love countryside...but on week-ends. As you know, I'll work from home. Will I get enough inspiration and excitation with this flat view ?? Is that so important ?
I know I am a city girl but I also like being in my backyard with nature noises, birds chirping and wind in the trees...I love shopping, going to the library, looking for trends, finding new stores...will I survive ?

KID FRIENDLY French toast:
6 slices of bread.

Scramble the last three together. Melt butter on pan. Dip the bread on both sides. Place bread on melted butter low heat.

The Land of Nod -- or your Magical World -- Now let me think R U Talking about the French Countryside...r u talking to me, r u talking to me? TOO LUCKY!! Let me say this...if God has blessed you with such a fortune, GO FOR IT!! Inspiration can be found in the simplest of things and most importantly in the peace of things! I'm envious! I would trade places anyday...I'm in Sunny Southern California...but to live in a place like the French Countryside....does this mean I'm invited to vist and bring the kids along too (just kidding). Flat is only a perspective!
Thank you OHMommy for your comments. I'll try your recipe as soon as I can go grocery shopping. I don't have cinnamon since I moved back here !
Cafe Mommy, I'd really prefer being in CA !!! Grass is greener there...and the weather !
I was a city girl and we found our magic land 8 years ago and I love it. I love the trees, birds, and quiet. I guess I realized even though I was raised in the city I was a "country" girl at heart hehe. I just love your blog, I am new to blogging and just started a blog called "I Overcooked My Family". I would love to hear from you.
