Just Today


time to pass on cooking duties to the younger kids!





an easy lunch idea...a platter of olive oil and vinegar with spices, fresh bread, and raw cukes

more geography projects

Popcorn


Our first attempt at growing popcorn in our garden! And then popping and eating it!

and guess what?? it popped! and it was delicious!

SNOW!!!


Thrilled with the early snow!











There wasn't much yet, but just enough to enjoy!
