Tuesday saw a trip back and forth from Madison, WI for work. Luckily for me, I can combine work with a little fun and visit with my good friend Judy. We had a lovely little lunch and she sent me home with something very lovely for Zosia, which I will share when I have good light for photography.
This Wednesday is going to a be a little random. After a long trip back through too much Cubs traffic on I-90, I'm just not all that functional...

- I have rediscovered my love of peanut butter. My favorite way to eat it is just to bypass the bread and eat it directly from the spoon.
- My kid pays more attention to my iPhone usage than I do. "Mommy's checking twitters!" is one of her recent comments.
- There is nothing that makes me feel better after a stressful day that sitting on the couch watching something with my kid in my lap. Yes, I wish she would watch something besides "Wubbzy's Big Movie" -- but some days you take what you can get.
- It had never occurred to me to use dental floss as a life line, but now it seems incredibly brilliant. Thanks to all the commenters on Monday who suggested it. My next lifeline will come out of my medicine cabinet.
- I am ever so tired of the itching that comes with my eczema.... who invented this skin problem anyway? The steroid cream makes it better, but only if you remember to use it the three times a day that your dermatologist suggested.
- I am determined to finish my Kushu Kushu scarf... but I don't think I ever want to knit with one single strand of silk/stainless steel again.
- I can change songs on my iPhone with my butt. Yesterday I popped it into my back pocket and skipped to the next song. Does my butt have a problem with Fleetwood Mac?

Sometimes random is all any of us have got.
I do the very same thing with peanut butter.
1. More bang for your buck -- more pb less bread carbs. Super Crunchy!
Love your blog. Have a good day!
I don't think I've ever made a PB&J without swiping a big blob of PB on my knife to eat at the end. Yum. Creamy though, not crunchy. Too much crunch in crunchy.
I love, love, love bread, so I usually just slather a swath of peanut buttery destruction on a single slice of bread and eat it open face.
Of course, since I realized I was probably getting more than a serving of peanut butter and that my metabolism is like a giant turtle I have stopped doing this on a regular basis.
I agree about TV with a little one on your lap. Thanks for your comment the other day -- I think you'll enjoy that shop if you end up going. Lots of good stuff for quilts (e.g. unicorns! birdies!) And belated happy birthday wishes for BEAUTIFUL Miss Z, too!
I'm interested in the steroid cream you're using. My DH is about ready to jump off a bridge with his eczema (a new development) and NOTHING is working. I'm ready to demand an autoimmune fix for this.
