The Voyage to Oklahoma
Our long journey began in an airport in Paris in the 1940s: just two women, alone save for a hoard of pastry, facing the beginning of a dusty road to the very far west. That’s a ‘Get Smart’ style Russian walkie talkie, not a cell phone Our spirits were high, though the miles before us…

Pioneer Woman Pretty Much Rocks
I just met a number of truly incredible women, thanks to the Pioneer Woman’s sushi weekend giveaway. I am in love with everyone I just met and it’s pretty lonesome now that I’ve been home from the Lodge for less than a day. I’m a wimp! I’m probably going to post up 36 entries about…

Mid-Ranch Weekend
Hey guys! I’ve snuck onto the computer at the Lodge to blog under the super secretive magical Oklahoma atmosphere that makes everyone out here incredibly fun, wonderful, and witty! My mom and I are having so much fun with all the other girls here, Ree has been spoiling us rotten with food to-DIE-for and views of…

The Rise of the Bobosaurus!
So I just happened to google ‘Bobosaurus’ just now, as someone had come here from said google search. Well, it turns out that Bobosaurus has become an official kind of dinosaur, just in the past few years! Isn’t that crazy?? Apparently it is a kind of plesiosaur, which is one of those water-dwelling brontosaurus looking…

Joolie’s Birthday Celebration
Here are a few pictures from Julie’s birthday this year. We celebrated with some delicious takeout from Filho’s Cucina, mmm so tasty! Julie had requested an ‘animal-shaped’ cake… so umm, out of ideas we went with a teddy bear. Mom proceeded to decorate the teddy bear when I wasn’t looking… and I think made him…

Early Morning Tea Party
For Christmas, Lauren brought my mom over a lovely tea sampler from some posh English brand. It contained several bags of eight different varieties, and was all nicely packaged into convenient little sleeves and placed gently into compartments. All this effort on their part was for naught, because now that Bobo can reach up on…

Winter and Ice Cream
Now I’m all for ice cream, I think it’s a great idea. But… not so much in winter time, I’m already frigid enough as it is! Bobo doesn’t feel the same way, apparently. He doesn’t even care that this is fake ice cream. And let me tell you, it’s nasty. I’m sorry for everyone who…

Blessings
February 11th, 2010, 01:18 am Blessings I was just reading over all my old public entries (making sure all the personal stuff is on private now), which were all mostly before I started my ‘mommy blog’ over on Bobosaurus Wrangler, but slipped into reading some of the private ones. I just have to say, I…

Little Fuzzball
Have you ever seen anything so sweet and cute as a curled up little blue possum all snug in his nest? Aww, wait, that’s just the Bobosaur in his polar bear pj’s… asleep in a little ball in his Christmas chair. Why is it that he can fall asleep in the oddest places in less…

Good Things Afoot
As you may know, I’ve been hoping to find a full-time job since my last semester ended and I’m only taking a half-time course load this semester. The tricky part is that I’m obviously not finished with my IT degree, but that’s the field I want a job in (British history is just not a…
