We’ve taken trips with my family, but, this was our first trip with just the three of us. We went to Virginia Beach and stayed with a friend of mine from high school. She lives a block from the water, and we went to the beach both days we were there. Alexander wasn’t quite sure about it, but was game to try it out anyway! On Saturday it was a bit rainy in the morning, so we went to the Childrens Museum. That was a blast—Alexander had a great time with the huge bubbles and running around in choo-choo train sets.
It was a great, relaxing three days away. Now, Alexander and I head to Wisconsin on Tuesday and Stu gets to stay home and dog/chicken sit for two weeks! There’s more photos under the cut, so be sure to check them out!

Read those Comments Here Sunday, July 12, 2009Farmers MarketOn Saturday Joy, Alexander and I visited the Lexington Farmers Market that is run in the car park of the Lexington Horse Centre. Joy was on a hunt for peas, even tho peas are out of season now, she was determined to track some down (she didn’t manage to). One of the stalls was selling lamb, it seemed a tad expensive but you knew it was locally grown. Lots of different veg was on sale so we scooped up some fresh leeks, very long and skinny leeks for Sunday nights menu (Leek and potato soup) and some ‘new’ potatoes (which I think was just a codename for small). Joy also found someone she recently met at the local library, April, whom was up at 4am making bread and apparently all night making more bread! Ahh the live of a baker. In any event we picked up a really nice focaccia loaf with spring onion and asiago cheese on top. I made a olive oil dipping sauce for it mmmmmmmmm (EVOO, balsamic vinegar, rock sat, cracked black peppercorns)... was good. We also picked up a bag of mustard greens for the chickens, but it seems between Kale, Mustard Greens and Collard Greens they really really love the kale the most. So its a bust on the mustard greens but they must be eaten. Right now I’m frying up the leeks for our leek and potato soup so the kitchen is hot but has a nice aroma.. Saturday, July 04, 2009Happy 4th of July!Though we missed the fireworks, we had a great evening in Lynchburg with some of Stu’s co-workers and a lot of people we didn’t know! Burgers, deviled eggs, pasta salad, deserts—even the coveted Violet Crumbles came out for the occasion! Of course, I only took photos of Alexander, but here they are:

In the photo that says BOY, he was sitting like he was xeroxing his butt—my little exhibitionist!
This is a foot, of which there are two…I’m not quite sure how the docs see some of these things!
