This Still Life, Volume 2

October 7, 2016 By Rachel Lacy

How are we already so far into October? We’re planning for fall breaks and Halloween and even already talking about THANKSGIVING?

2016, where did you go? You’ve turned into frozen memories on Instagram — snapshots from a busy, busy life.

1. The Kidlets took a four-week Hockey Clinic… AKA 4 weeks of Slap-Stick Comedy to provide hilarious stress-relief for Mommy. I highly recommend it. 2. I discovered Life in Leggings. I seriously have to force myself to wear anything else during the week. 3. This year, I decided on a daily theme for the Kidlet lunches. Tuesdays are all about breakfast. I love having a plan. 4. Chicken Panang — a Thai recipe that I perfected in our kitchen. Others on Instagram have since made it and raved … whoo hoo!!! 5. More leggings. Because … leggings.
