So I'm cutting a red bell pepper tonight and Cole walks in to kitchen. "Hi Mom," he says. "Can I try one of those seeds?" The seeds? "Sure," I say. I give him a seed and he stares at it. "What does it taste like?" he asks. "I don't know," I say, "I usually wash them down the drain. Try it."
He munches on it thoughtfully.
"What does it taste like?" I ask him.
"Sour," he says. "Kind of like an ant."

About Me
- our little acorns
- Bellingham, WA, United States
- I love beach houses and farmer's markets, a warm bed in a cold room, being surprised with a Starbucks coffee, rain outside my window, acting as queen to my six silly boys, delighting in my daughter's belly laugh, learning the fear of the Lord, peanut m&m's after the kids are in bed and making my husband proud. I don't love shoes left on the landing, cooking on the weekend, hot summer nights, being the center of attention or fair-weather friends. This is my own private therapy. Welcome.

Do you remember our freshmen year in Nash when Justin ate the spider and fly in our room?! Mmmmm protein, he said. Cole, let me know when you’ve moved up to eating spiders! :)
