7 Quick Takes Friday (Vol 208)

1
Needing some foodie blog inspiration, do you have any to recommend? Specifically whole foods/fermenting/grain free food blogs. Particularly love to find Australian blogs

Listening to people talk to their children in public makes me cringe at times.  I know we can all have bad days, I know many of us have been guilty at times of not talking to our children with respect, but really we need to stop and think.  Not doubting their love for their children, but they wouldn’t talk to their peers like that, why talk to your children in such a manner?

Bass has become rather territorial about a yellow bowl, he insists on having this bowl for his breakfast every morning and whoa betide if else uses his bowl, said bowl then has to be rewashed for his use. His quirk is annoying his siblings, doesn’t really bother me as I’ve been done this path a time or two before.

Life has certainly been different with only the Under 10s home this week. We’d forgotten how hard it is to take younger children shopping without extra older ones along to help keep children from wandering. Also needed to make time adjustments to allow extra time for preparations before heading to town.  Conversations at tea time are more juvenile too, we’ve had a few burping contests a couple of nights this week, not amused.

5
As much as I’m enjoying time with the younger set, I admit to missing conversations with my teens too.  Just missing them really but excited to know they are having a wonderful experience on the Pilgrimage.

6
Spotlight opened in our town this week! Sadly I haven’t got there yet as the children refused to go, waiting until I have babysitters home so I can have the opportunity to browse. The girls are keen to make skirts, hoping Spotlight will have a range of lovely fabrics suitable.

Would really like to track my blog traffic; how many views, how my visitors find me etc  Does anyone have any good recommendations/advice as to how to do this on blogger?
