PIE!
I know Sofia has her own blog and all, but since I talk about pie so much here (and since I haven't made a post in a while), I thought I'd share this photo of Sofia's first slice. This girl is going to grow up with a passion for pie, if her Mama has anything to do with it.

SLEEP DEPRIVATION INSPIRES PROJECT
Yep, I created a blog for Sofia: Born in Mississippi. Thought it best that she have her own Internet presence, since I know she's going to have a lot to share with the world. In fact, Sofia may just turn out to be a more prolific blogger than her mama.

SOFIA GRACE STREETER
We welcomed Sofia Grace Streeter into the world at 5:11 p.m. on Wednesday, October 21, 2009. She weighed six pounds, six ounces, was 19 inches long and showed off quite a set of lungs.
Mama and Sofia just seconds after birth.
Mama and Sofia, both tired but clean.
Already wearing a smile.
Believe it or not, we have yet to document a single moment since we came home from the hospital yesterday but plan to soon. Meantime, we're giving Mama some time to recover and Jackson (the dog) and Bingo (the cat) some time to get used to the idea of having a baby in the house. So far, so good.

A FLOOR TO REMEMBER
And now this beautifully stained wood floor will forever be a reminder of the few days before the arrival of our beautiful little girl, Sofia. We can't wait to welcome her home.

FOR THE LOVE OF ART, PANEL TRUCKS, AND DON DRAPER
Check out the wonderful paintings of food delivery trucks by Brooklyn artist Kevin Cyr (you might want to check out his Camper Kart while you're at it). I first saw Kevin's work on the Serious Eats blog sometime last week and have been revisiting his truck series pretty regularly ever since. The ice cream truck is a fave, but I chose to feature his painting of the Utz truck because (a) I love that teal background (b) Utz reminds me of living in Baltimore and (c) there was an Utz story line in the second season of Mad Men, which I devoured, sans a bag of Utz, via Netflix in record time. I thought I'd have to sit on pins and needles, waiting for this season's episodes of Mad Men to make it to DVD, but the Internet gods are working in my favor. Did you know that you can watch current episodes on casttv.com? Which, for a Don Draper fan such as myself, is pretty darned satisfying. Time to celebrate with a bag of Utz. Hmm, can you get Utz potato chips in Mississippi? Probably easier to celebrate with a John Deere instead.

FOR THE LOVE OF PETITS FOURS
In fact, petits fours inspired this painting that I did last year.
Still, I have to say, I do prefer pie.
