Listen to this song:
Don't mind the Sims animation.
It's beautiful.
Anyhow, things have been good this week. I know, it's only Tuesday, but I'm being positive! Sunday night we grilled salmon and it was amazing! We used a cedar plank, and I made a fresh basil and tarragon pesto to smother the top and it was heavenly, really. Paired with whole wheat couscous and broccoli rabe (which was a total failure, does anyone have a good recipe for that which makes it less bitter??). Last night I made Pad Thai with some sauce I bought at the oriental market. It really didn't taste anything like Pad Thai, but it was pretty good. I also tried my hand at making poached eggs yesterday which was a disaster. Any help from regular poachers that doesn't involved buying a new pan?
I missed dear Autumn's call because I was out back fighting with jasmine. I love the jasmine on my back fence, but it's overtaking everything back there, and I really really want my electric fence to go up so I don't worry about the dog so much (she's still been digging, but since she only goes out when I do, I catch her pretty quickly). I can't really do anything about the electric fence until I can see my wooden fence since I'm attaching it to the existing fence.
Spencer's been doing the rocking thing for awhile. He can only negotiate moving backward, so he scoots backward around the living room and gets stuck in the oddest places, like under tables, because he can't see where he's going. It's really quite amusing. But we've only babyproofed to the extent of plug covers and bumpers for the fireplace (although he still ends up rocking his head into the side of the brick, nothing I can do about that). We've gotten the other stuff, so I guess we'll get there slowly. He's moving just as slowly right now anyhow :) ... don't everyone tell me at once how I need to get on it because he'll start running around before I know it! I know, I know ... hehe ...
In other news, we got a Wii Fit on Friday. I haven't been able to get on it since Friday with all the football in the house lately, but I'm hoping to start working with it at least through the week. It's so fun! And a bit painful. I'm worse at yoga than I remember ... but hula hoops and skiing is way fun!

I like the voice a lot on the song. Who is it?
I can just see Spencer scooting around backwards. At least that way he has his tush to cushion him if he bumps into something, right?
