Life is Art is Kelly Hogaboom in small, digestible bits.

Featured Project: Bike Chaps

This design was actually entered in the Etsy/Instructables Sew Useful contest. These are functional, cheap to make, and sold on Etsy within an hour or so.

look what I can do!

This morning I biked the kids to Aberdeen and back - over one bridge that's rather hilly, returning on one that's treacherous traffic-wise. Our destination was the Canned Food Grocery Outlet which, the more you visit, the more awesome it is. Today I didn't / wouldn't be buying huge, heavy produce (we took the bus / bike combo for that, yesterday) but I did purchase various shampoos and soaps we'd been almost out of as well as a giant box of cereal my children requested. Then home, stopping by the Farmer's Market for eggs.

Biking with 80 lbs. of children plus whatever weight the trailer is plus our coats and groceries makes me awesome. The fact that I am listening to the Hot Fuzz soundtrack at full blast on the iPod makes me a geek, but it makes me feel even more awesome as I do it. Check out the visuals (look at whichever makes my feat seem more impressive):
