Down the Rabbit Hole: Week 6

'Well!' thought Alice to herself, ' after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs!
Down the Rabbit Hole is a new series in 2014. I compile my favorite things from around the internet for our mutual enjoyment. The internet is fun! Enjoy!
I just discovered the Overdrive app thanks to the Janssen of Everyday Reading. I tried the web version like four years ago when I was spending lots of nerdy time at the Brooklyn Public Library and it did not work on my Mac and made me super mad like computer problems do. But Overdrive does work now and I am so, so excited. Free books, free audiobooks, free Kindle books! My heart is happy.
Speaking of the library, we just had the best time at a local singing time. We sang about Mother Earth and Father Son and eating your vegetables and one kid named an instrument that most of us had never heard of. Berkeley, man.
If you're looking for summer book recs, Everyday Reading and Angieville are my favorites. I just started Gone Girl and have no idea what it is about or anything. Anybody want to stop me before I continue? Did you love it? It's so popular I bought it without thinking.
We're die-hard Stendig Calendar fans, but this huge It's A Month Calendar is really cool too. (Thanks for sharing with me, Dave.)
Our son now shares his name with our friend's new dog. Pretty cute.
I really enjoyed Joanna's rundown on her beauty uniform. My boys make me feel like a ragamuffin, but free and loved. :)
I like all this buzz about Capsule Wardrobes and Minimalist Living and such. The small cynic in me is on high alert but when I quiet it, I think it's all a great idea. I heard about it from Natalie first, then Jenna, and then traced it back to Caroline. (If you're wondering what I'm talking about read that last link there.) I've already taken some necessary steps this week and maybe I'll share my Capsule Wardrobe aka Clean Closet Without High School Track Sweats result. :)
Some beautiful photos our friends captured of our joint trip to Big Sur. Our first! I can't say enough good things about Northern California. It is gorgeous, just like everybody told us it would be.
Have you seen these "dates" in a box? Ages ago Confetti had us try the Camping Date at home and it was SO much fun. Honestly. I was super surprised how fun and romantic it was. I'd totally do it again. Perfect for parents.
I keep posting photos of New York on Instagram. And my kids. I'm one step from produce aisle photos....
My pet project Bored Moms has a small but really awesome community on Facebook, if you want to join us and talk about mom stuff. If you still use that old thing. :) I can't say I'm the grandest Facebook Group manager in the world, but I do dabble in cute overload pet videos that somehow relate to parenthood so you should check it out.
This blog post was sparked by our three-year-old.
Friday! Still wish I could watch TGIF every single Friday.
