Wacky Wednesday! We worked hard, in spite of the most interesting distractions, though those lively and lovely critters can suck away your time. Boaz caught a worm/catterpillar thing, stuck it in a container, and it had spun a web/cocoon-looking thing when we next examined it. So we left him in there...we'll see if it was indeed the beginnings of a cocoon.
Later in the afternoon, Nandry and I started making jewelry with beads, wire, and shells. Boaz and one of the Abbott kids helped for a while, but Nandry and I kept on until dinner. We were having fun with glitter and things. Some of my shells look like mermaid tails. :-)
Tonight, Laurel cooked our Easter dinner. (She was ill on the actual day, bummer, but doing better!) It. was. AMAZING.
She did a honey ham that smelled like pumpkin pie, and tasted sooo good. Her gravy was unlike any I've ever had, and I told her I HAVE to have a recipe! Mashed potatoes, homemade and non-dairy but still good, corn, and homemade butter croissants rounded out our stellar meal. And THEN - she made cheesecake! I took my chances on the dairy, drizzled some mango on top, and savored a taste of delight. YUM.
Going on the list of things I will miss - Laurel's cooking!
On that subject, we should have a countdown. After all, the blog says 180 days (really 177 if you read the fine print), and you may also notice that we are at 150. So only 30 more days here at the blog, and only 28 days until I am on Florida soil.
Still not real. Crazy.
And only 2 more full weeks of school - we are all starting to feel that!
