In honor of autumn weather finally arriving in Wine Country, we’ve decided to whip out a new fall/winter themed header for the blog. Please check it out! (Don’t forget to hit refresh when you load the page.)
p.s. I’ve also added a page featuring our previous headers (with additional information about each of them) to keep for posterity.
I finally got around to updating our “about us” page. Here’s what it looks like now:
I write about family life with my husband and three-year old daughter, sharing stories about our homeschooling adventures, love of lifelong learning, cooking healthy and family-friendly food, victory gardening, creative activities and crafty projects, spending time outdoors, and living in a sleepy country town in the heart of Sonoma County’s apple and wine country.
Please follow along as we chronicle family life in Northern California. We thrilled to have you along for the ride!
Welcome to our new website, The Creative Salad!
We’re so excited about the new URL and updated layout for our family website. After being hosted at carriespritzer.com and spritzerleyba.com for almost ten years, we’re thrilled to have a new URL that fits our family and is much easier to remember.
Our blog, The Creative Salad, documents our family’s attempt at leading a more creative, playful, inquisitive, and environmentally-friendly life.
We have a new RSS feed that you can subscribe to here in order to never miss a post!
We now have a Facebook page too, so you can follow along and get a glimpse at the inner workings of life with the Spritzer Leyba family, as well as receive updates in your Facebook feed whenever we update the site.
As always, you can follow us at Twitter as well for more personal family anecdotes.
I still have many tasks to complete, including adding featured images to each of the posts (that’s the square images you see to the left of the post titles), update all the links within the posts that still point to our old site, add categories to most of the posts, and more. So, please be forgiving over the next few weeks as we settle in and smooth out all the hiccups.
What do you think?
New bedroom curtains. New and improved site.
Welcome to our new and improved family journal, now proudly powered by WordPress! Here you can view each others comments and link to individual posts (rather than just the monthly archives). Hopefully this will encourage more commenting and discussion. WordPress is also easier for me to use, so hopefully updates will be more frequent in the future.
In the meantime, please bear with us as we work out the kinks. (And do leave comments if you stumble upon any errors.) As always, this site looks better with Firefox than Internet Explorer. (And I don’t have a Mac anymore, so lord knows how it looks on Safari.)
Don’t forget to update your bookmarks and feeds accordingly! (Yes, we now have a RSS feed!)
Congratulations to Erika and Andrew on the birth of their beautiful and healthy son Richard Isaac!
He was born last night and weighs in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces.
Glad mom and baby are doing great! Sending you hugs and cheers from Colorado!
