We spent just shy of 24 hours in Plympton and it was wonderful. Jamie came over for the lovely backyard dinner Amy put together. It was so relaxing and the night was perfect for it. Cool enough to keep skeeters away but comfortable enough to play and play and play.
Though I can say no toads were harmed in the making of these photos...it was pretty traumatized-stunned, the poor thing.
Mother's Day was spent celebrating Cap's mom, Mummu to the four "grands" as she calls them. I was very pleased that she seemed to really like our gift, a Barnes and Noble Nook. We set it to charge right away, but didn't have enough time to go over the ins and outs with her. We will be calling upon her local techie gurus for help with that.
And what would a visit with the Plympton cousins be without a viewing of Panda Go Panda? Sorely lacking in tradition, that's what.
This morning, I treated myself to a belated Mother's Day and took the kids out to breakfast. We went to Toast and loved it. They are knowledgeable about gluten issues and we felt comfortable (safe) ordering. Homemade hash on the menu daily...yum!
Peace and love.
P.S. We've decided to remove gluten from Sag's diet for the next while (3-6 months). He has experienced enormous physical growth in the last six months and we suspect there are some hormonal/chemical shifts taking place based on new signs of inflammation (puffy appearance and higher than usual sensitivity). Cap and I are renewing our own commitments to gluten-free/grain-free...it has become a full blown family affair.

You are going to love the seat warmer. : )
Someone who knows :-) What's funny is that I had decided seat warmers were out of our budget and had reluctantly abandoned my pipe dream.
We ended up buying a car that someone had custom ordered leather seats with seat warmers...and didn't pay a penny towards them!
Actually, we didn't know about the seat warmers until after we had the car and Erik accidentally switched his on and wondered why he was getting so hot in his seat :-)
It was a grueling negotiation to get them to cut out the $1700 they wanted for the special seats, but very worth it in the end :-)
Looks like a lovely visit to Plympton! I'm glad you had a good Mother's Day!
