The story behind the blog name

When our eldest was little, he had a book entitled "Some Things Go Together". We read it to him constantly. Like many times a day, had the book memorized constantly. So, for the farmer's birthday, I made him our own copy of the book. One of the lines was "digestives with tea, and you with me", in honor of our daily ritual of tea and digestive cookies in the afternoon. Fast forward 15 years, and that little boy now has his drivers license and we have five more children. Afternoon tea has become snatched cups of whatever is hot and caffeinated whenever we can get it, but the you with me is still going strong!

  2. Yeah-kind of like me remembering you showing me your supplies for your first day of kindergarten! You probably even read the book to him a time or two!
