I found a fun service from our library. You can download books on your computer to listen to for free. I chose some books for the boys and downloaded them. They stay on the computer for 10 days. There is permission to burn most of the kids stories to cd, then I can transfer it to my iPod. I wish I could download directly to my iPod. Christian's current favorites are Sagwa the Chinese Siamese Cat and Where the Wild Things Are. When I play stories on the iPod, Christian will go find the book if we have it and read it while he listens to the story.

The meatballs sound yummy. I might have to try them. I'm always looking for good recipes.
Cute layout! Love the colors and the blocking.
Yum! Makes me want to make meatballs.
Isn't that a great service of libraries? I'm glad that mine has that feature, too.
Fantastic idea - thanks for the tip!
That's good to know about the library. One of these days I need to actually get down there and get a card. I've been listening to books online at Project Gutenburg since I can't read books anymore. But PG only has books where the copyright has run out (i.e. very old books). Which isn't necessarily all that bad. But once in awhile I'd like to listen to something a bit newer. :-)
Oh and nice jam recipe. Something I might actually be able to do! Though meatballs, on the other hand, are the domain of my British boy. ;-)
