This is the story of our adventures -- every day and extraordinary; our dreams -- tiny and grand; our gardens -- ornamental and sustaining; this is the story of our journey.  We are a family of four living a mindful, simple life here in Los Angeles County.  We are green, conscious, and forward thinking.  We keep an eye on the past because some of the best things have already been done and bear repeating.  Walk and talk with us, have a glass of wine, taste a peach or a tomato, blow some bubbles and watch them drift up over the canyon ridge.  Enjoy!

What I didn't realize...

In the Bare Necessities clip below, when Alex starts yelling, "OW!" I thought it was because she hurt herself, or "play hurt" herself while jumping. Nope. She is copycatting Mogli in the video clip of the song. He picks a prickly pear and yells, "Ow!" At the exact point in the song where she starts yelling. Also copycatted is the butt wiggle. See for yourself:

I think she saw it once. Maybe twice.

How did I figure this out? She and I just watched our clip and she said something about "using the claw when you pick the prickly pear!" She told me essentially.
