I love it. Gige is soooooo rockin’ the recycle tat. So much better suited to her nature than the biohazard symbol, which I see on a lot of young ladies down here (um? I don’t get it either.).

Not that we’re making any suggestions, of course, but she would look great with a tiny bluebird somewhere on her bicep. She can tough up and say she got it at preschool…. picture the tiny muscle shirt with the rolled-up sleeves…lol…!

Oh, and Lu and Gigi’s parlor should be called “Sundae Sisters”. I would be in there all summer long with the hubby splittin’ a two-spooner, hold the HFCS (color me impressed at her knowledge base! Should not be surprising at all…)

What a beautiful, inspirational post. I truly wish all children had mothers that cared as much for their futures as you do for your girls! I have a feeling that they already know that their mom will always be there
Adorable pictures too, by the way. Thanks for making me smile today!

You are too sweet. I love this post.

And some vegetable oil will take the tattoo off easily. But I think it’s adorable how it’s a recycle sign! Cutest tattoo ever!

XO,
Erin

Mama Pea, you are fantastic. I admire you so much. Your recipes, your diet, your story, your writing–all of it is seriously one of the most inspirational things i read. So for that, THANK YOU! Oh, and I hope i don’t sound like a freaky superfan. I’m harmless I swear! Just wanted to let you know .

P.S. As a fellow Portlander, I hope you are armed and ready with popsicles and lemonade for the day they’re forecasting tomorrow!

Emilie, I am so flattered. Thank you so much. I can’t tell you how much it means to me to have readers like you tell me that somehow my crazy life means something to them. We are actually headed to Portland tomorrow to meet up with friends for lunch. The A/C will be crankin’! Thanks again for your sweet words. -MP

This is awesome! I just snuck a bite of a teeny, $4 container of coconut bliss ice cream and loved it, but no doubt I can do it cheaper with my ice cream maker. Great idea! =) Love that agave.

Oddly enough, I have all of those EXACT items, brand and all–including the ice cream maker. It’s fate. I need Cookies and Cream in my life.

Ahh looks SO good for a hot summer day!
If you have time, please take a look at my bloggy! I’m brand spanking new, and I mentioned your post about the Balance Bars since they are a FAVORITE of mine too. Thank you, oh and you’re an inspiration!

I wish I had an ice-cream maker. This looks amazing. I don’t have an ice-cream maker though, or room in my kitchen cupboards for one.

Which makes me sad.

This looks amazing. I want to hire you to cook for me.

PS. Your girls are adorable.
