I actually thought I would never want to live there and didn't see what was so great about it. Then I got married and DH got transfered outside of Houston. And you know what? I loved loved loved it. Well, not the city part, but the state as a whole, especially rural east Texas where I worked for a bit. It is just too far from the midwest (i.e. family) though. If you'd be willing to move it a bit closer I'd be back in a heart beat. I'm gonna have to take a look at the plans. I try to do a new thing each year, and though I've done my 'new thing' for this year, I feel like I can handle another on. Besides, we have a great deck for this; it gets lots of sun during the summer. The names brought this joke to mind: Pete and Repete were sitting on a log. Pete fell off who was left? "Repete" Pete and Repete were sitting on a log. Pete fell off who was left? ... I think you get it. =) Ah, you all (I mean y’all) are making me homesick for Texas.

I'm new to your blog, loving the solar oven ideas! I'd thought about doing this last summer (I, too, live on the face of the sun, erm, I mean Texas). Now that you've shown us so many good ideas for what to do with one, this summer we're totally going to do it! Wow, very cool! I’m new to your blog, loving the solar oven ideas!

I wonder if my hubby will make me one for mother's day? =D =D Very interested in the solar oven. =) I have change in the change jar, think that’ll cover it? =D =D

I forgot that we hadn't gotten the new news up on the website yet! Texas is nice; my grandfather grew up on a dairy farm there, in Victoria; my family's been to San Antonio for VF conferences and such; and my husband lived there for 6 months before we started courting, while he interned with Vision Forum. I think I'd rather live in South Carolina, Virginia, or Alaska, though.... (Dare I even suggest such a thing?) :D Thanks for looking at our website!
