Have You Ever Taken Morer Artificial Sweetener Than You Needed At A Coffee Shop?

At many coffee shops nowadays you need to ask for splenda which they keep behind the counter due to people snatching it for use at home.

Snoop Mad Is Fearless

While The Bean had to build up courage to go down the slides, her younger sister is missing the “fear gene”  It’s amazing how different they are, The Bean being mindful and neurotic like her father and Snoop Mad being headstrong and fearless like her mom.

East Gloucester is a great place to walk, especially with a camera.  I like to take  close-up shots of ordinary things. It makes me more aware of design and patterns in everything.      —-Sharon

The Bean Slides At Monkey Joe’s

 

 

The Bean Climbs At Monkey Joe’s

Yesterday we went to Monkey Joe’s.  It’s a childrens place where they have a bunch of those blow up jumping and climbing things.  We luckily got there right when it opened and there weren’t too many people there yet.   We generally don’t like to go to these places because I’m thinking that they are just big time breeding grounds for germs and sickness with all the kids drooling and wiping thier snots everywhere(my kids included).  What made me feel pretty god about Monkey Joe’s was that when we got there (right when it opened) everything was wiped down with antibacterial wipes.  Everything was just about dry from the wiping and you could see that they went over everything.

It took the Bean a while to build up enough courage to climb this on her own but once she did, there was no stopping her.
