- Laura is drawing designs for porch furniture. Not only does she fantasize about building it, she also fantasizes about long relaxed hours sitting in it. This week she's writing about creating a more peaceful world by the way we raise our kids, and submitting a manuscript for her second book.
- Brigid blogs about what she's been up to lately. Moving to Texas, new art projects and more!
- Andrea went to a luncheon sponsored by PopCap Games (the people behind Bejeweled and Plants Vs. Zombies) and talked with other mom bloggers about the benefits and concerns of raising kids who love video games. She also started a 3-day, online "campus orientation" with University of Phoenix--an experience she'll be writing about on GeekMom in the coming weeks...
- Kristen Rutherford wants to make a Mondrian cake.
- Jules has been extremely busy getting ready for the official launch of The Look 24/7. In between computers dying, technology failing, server transfers and Geeky Pleasures' redesign, The Look 24/7 was successfully launched on June 1. Now, Jules will spend the next few days crashing before she prepares for Phil Plait (@BadAstronomer) to be her first live guest on The Geeky Pleasures Radio Show, at her new station.
- Kris Bordessa has committed to using at least one locally produced ingredient every day during the month of June . This shouldn't be too difficult since her garden is already putting out green beans, beets, peppers, basil, and an occasional tomato.
- Cathe is trying to catch up after being at Maker Faire and doing a product photo shoot in Seattle for a company who sells products to families with special needs/sensory children. She is also preparing to entertain her v2.0's 24/7 during summer vacation (starting next week). De-stress time is in order consisting of the normal menu: Dungeons and Dragons, Pokémon, and more Dungeons and Dragons.
- Sarah Pinault thoroughly enjoyed a weekend in Philadelphia but is ready to get back to her pumpkin patch and watching the deer in the garden. This weekend plays host to a Sunday School play, Pirate Fluxx and hopefully a trip to Mackworth Island.
- Chaos Mandy will be at ConCarolinas this weekend, cosplaying as Kaylee from "Firefly" and playing in a "Firefly" LARP. It should be a very shiny time in Charlotte, NC!
- Speaking of ConCarolinas - Natania will be a guest, speaking on several panels at the Con. Go see her if you can!
- After six months of parental leave, Delphine will be back at work next Monday. No need to tell you what a big change it is…
