The rest of the blog world

Some peoples' blogs are hard to keep up with! Meredith at Like Merchant Ships posts so many good ideas and photos that I lose track sometimes. Even she says "With over 800 posts, navigating Like Merchant Ships can be a journey."

But it's worth the trip over there. Lately she's posted about instant houseplants, lacy pillowcases, replacing ants (yes, you heard that right), and the fish hung over her bed. Meredith, nobody will ever say your posts are boring.

Coffeemamma has been posting about what her youngest kids are doing this term, and about the anxieties confidence of future Olympic hockey stars.

Sallie has a very thoughtful post about Coping with Abundance.

And the DHM has scanned in a vintage article about feeding a family of four for $13 a week.
