SOLSC: Transported back in time
The Band Originally uploaded by teachergal The 25th Festival Italiano took place in Westport over the weekend. There were carnival games and lots of greasy foods. There was also live music. Emil Stucchio and the New Brooklyn Reunion performed. They sang some oldies, but goodies, which caused me to sing along to quite a few… Continue reading SOLSC: Transported back in time
SOLS: Bedtime Ice Cream.
At twenty-eight minutes before bedtime last night, I decided to be one cool mom and offer ice cream cones. There were three takers. I scooped three cones and we headed outside to the grass. I sat down and invited them to join me. They all did, making a perfect circle. I was thankful for the… Continue reading SOLS: Bedtime Ice Cream.

Stacey’s SOLSC: Six Months
I heard a knock upon our door. I didn't get up. Then, the keys turned in the lock. It was Marc. I didn't get up because I was scanning something with chipboard, therefore holding down the lid so that it would scan as seamlessly as possible. He came over and said, "These are for you."… Continue reading Stacey’s SOLSC: Six Months

SOLSC: The Perfect “Gift”
Last week, on the day I taught my students how to write letter poems by showing them Brod Bagert's Poem "The Poem on My Pillow," one of my students came up to me with a letter poem… to me. I was touched by her words and found myself holding back tears. She brought it to… Continue reading SOLSC: The Perfect “Gift”
SOLSC: Lake + Cousins + Changes.
Sunday afternoon we rounded the bend and sunlight glittered off the lake. "Oh my goodness!" a tiny voice whispered in the back. We turned down the gravel lane, past the monsterous houses which surround our family's little cottage. "Oh my goodness!" the voice became louder. We pulled in beside the other vehicles and the… Continue reading SOLSC: Lake + Cousins + Changes.
SOLSC: Multi-tasking
THE BASICS: Late Saturday afternoon. On the elliptical rider. Listening to "Bombay Dreams" on my MP3. Watching the replay of Hillary Rodham Clinton's 'Farewell' Speech. THE BACK-STORY: When I was in college I volunteered at the White House Office of Women's Initiatives and Outreach from Sept. 1995 – Nov. 1996. The office was started by… Continue reading SOLSC: Multi-tasking
Ruth’s SOLSC: Hello Summer.
Waking up before the alarm, smiling, and easily getting out of bed. This is the first indicator of summer. Taking the time to make breakfast, sitting at the table to enjoy a conversation with a toddler and preschooler. This is the second indicator of summer. Taking our oldest to kindergarten; another indicator of summer. The… Continue reading Ruth’s SOLSC: Hello Summer.

Stacey’s SOLSC (and it’s food-related… again)
"Stace, we're almost here," I heard Marc say as I opened my eyes. I saw water on both sides of me. Ahead, it said "178th Street," "Henry Hudson Parkway," "Uptown," "Downtown." I knew exactly where I was... The George Washington Bridge, headed into Manhattan. I closed my eyes again. Then, I blinked them back and… Continue reading Stacey’s SOLSC (and it’s food-related… again)
