I love that your posts make me think. This one made me ask, "Why do we lie to children about relationships and sex?"

I don't have a strong opinion one way or another – I can see both sides of the coin on this one, but this post brought up that question for me and makes me think that I will probably be more honest with my son when the issue arises at our house.

Let's not forget that many, many times PT has written about how consistency is extremely important in her sons' lives. Melissa and Cullen drop out of the sky and when their next adventure presents itself, they will go away. For many reasons, I think the Farmer was right on point about this one. Some may call it romantic while others call it a careless abandonment of self-control around children.

I love the mis-aligned boobs on the dress form, like it's made to fit a dress for a real person. Did you make it? 'Cause that's exactly how an extremely literal person would make a dress form for an actual woman who hangs slightly lower on the right. I've never seen a dress form before that isn't exactly perfectly balanced in every respect, and therefore useless for people who want a dress that fits.

Admit it, Penelope, you are trying to turn your farm life into a BRAVO channel TV script. I hope you succeed.

We really do need some fresh and funny stuff to watch on the tube.

I don't think Pen blogs so that a bunch of strangers can judge her. Come on people, be entertained!!
Pen, I live on a farm, and I need some coding done. You just send little ol' Cullen off to me!

EVERYONE blogs for an audience, which means that people judge the bloggers. It is what it is. At least it's honest to have comments and leave up the critical ones (versus the bloggers who tell all and then get into "I know you are but what am I" with critical commenters – put up or shut up, or go private, folks).

I'm not sure if you've been tweaking this new blog, or if I've just become accustomed to the change, but I'm starting not to miss the Brazen Careerist look.

The photos are flowing better.

I'm wondering about your money situation, was the book profitable? What is happening with your new company? I've been enjoying goat cheese less.

Good question about money, Hazel. It's always an issue for me. I get stable with money, then I have a new business idea and then I get unstable. A startup is always unstable financially. There never seems to be an exception because the entreprenurial mentality is to put too much into a company. Too much time, energy, faith, money, everything. I do it over and over again, like a disease.

That said, the business is going great. The book sold so well that investors take it as proof that I can sell goat cheese. (Correlation unclear in everyone's mind but the investors', I think. But whatever.)

And I love the problems of a startup. I think life is full of problems. We choose the problems we can tackle. Most people would hate the tummult of a startup. like, where is my money coming from, how can I have faith that somehow I'll make a good company, how can I believe I'll do something good for Zach and Mitch when I have no idea what I'm really doing. These are all nagging questions that actually feel comfortable to me.

I think maybe you're on the path to turning the farm into a new-millenium Bloomsbury.

Question:
Is the Farmer now ok with the sleeping arrangements?

The Farmer really needs his own blog.

This post is interesting from the perspective of mixing friendship with business. The lines can become blurred and the path(s) can be difficult to navigate. I hope everything works out for all concerned.

ah, from the title i thought this post was going to be about you and the farmer. being married and working at home makes you coworkers even if you have different projects, imo.

Sweet post! I'm happy for Melissa!

I am super cute and only pick up emotionally unavailable a-holes and retarded married guys who want to have their cake and eat it too. Where the hell's my CULLEN!?

Asparagus is one of my favorite foods. I'm so jealous you get to eat it 24/7! Here's a great recipe if you're looking for a new way to serve it…
