Today was awesome!!! We were surprised with a beautiful warm and sunny day.
The weather went from drizzly to gorgeous. While M was still at preschool, I went for a run – 3.5 miles – around town. I took a speed shower and then made lunch – a big salad with leftover grown-up hamburger helper on top (a Cook Smarts recipe!)
I walked to preschool to pick up my big boy. How cute is he!?
In the process, I dropped my keys when I took off a layer, so we had to walk back to preschool to get them. 1.5 miles added to the day’s tally!
We hung out together until we left the house again to take a ride on Cville’s downtown vintage carousel this week! M took this very seriously.
Then we joined friends at Splendora’s for a tiny bambino cone. White chocolate lemon cookie FTW!
And then we had lots of fun at the park!!!
Matt beat us home and had dinner in the works – Italian Ribollita Soup, which was delicious.
A little wine R&R on the deck!
We are hanging out for a bit before putting M down to bed – he is going to fall asleep fast tonight!
PS. I’ve been tweaking the KERF design and have a new header if you haven’t seen! Also, we just released KERF mobile optimized. I know there are a lot of ads and we are working on that. Thanks for your feedback and patience! I hope the mobile site will be much easier to navigate on a tiny device once everything is worked out.

Hi kath! Just curious how do you handle naps these days with an almost three year old/warmer weather?
Amy D says

Header looks great! As does that italian soup! 🙂
Sam @ Grapefruit & Granola says
That soup looks delicious!
Lorie says
Thank you for mentioning the ads! Gah!
I am probably in the minority, but I always prefer blogs in their desktop version–they are easier to navigate, I think. As a long time reader, I would hope there will be an easy-access “desktop mode” button we can switch on. Just my two cents 🙂 new header looks great!
KathEats says
I think you can always request the desk top site in your mobile browse. I tried and it worked for me in Chrome
Livi @ Eat, Pray, Work It Out says

Aww I cant see the new header… everything just looks shoved over to the right on my computer.
Lynda says
That is the same view I am getting…

Hi Kath, your page isn’t displaying properly – the right sidebar is at the bottom of the page and the posts are all jumbled up. I’m on a mac using Firefox.
KathEats says

Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
oh my gosh, I have literally been day dreaming about warm sun on my skin. Enjoy it! Hopefully we’ll get some in Chicago soon… one day.
Jen says
Love your blog and look forward to seeing your posts and adventures around town. I saw you and your darling boy at the carousel yesterday and it felt so strange to know so much about a stranger (Celebrity sighting ;))!! That said, thanks for being so honest and inspiring and for sharing your thoughts and love of Cville with your community. I know it can’t always be easy, but it is appreciated!!!
KathEats says
Awww! Thank you. Next time say hi!!
Jillie says
Look at those cute shades on M! Was the Italian Ribollita Soup from Cooksmarts?
KathEats says
Yes….it was so good!

My boy is also a serious carousel rider. Isn’t it so cute? I have similar selfies where I have a big smile and he’s straight-faced. …Thanks for the curry chicken salad recipe. Ina always gets it right.
