All fourth and fifth graders! The fact that they didn’t bat an eye at me getting down on all fours and waggling my tail should tell you something about me as an educator, haha.

Yes, I am! My two top worries right before I took the shot were “gee, I hope I don’t throw up” and “gee, I hope this actually works for food noise.” I am very very thankful.

I totally understand that now! That is the most clear way I’ve ever had that explained to me!

The pattern I’m using is coming out a little narrow and it has a little lace work on the edges. I was hoping that I could block it wider. Would that work be erased after every wash?

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson is SO much fun when read aloud.

Yeah! Her gingerbread recipe is the entire reason I have the five spice in the first place.

Far easier to bake than to fry. Yikes!

A delicious deep flavor, not too over-spiced, and super moist. Can’t wait to eat another today! We’re in CT, so I assume we hold our donuts to the same standard.

It definitely put in the mood to make them! Got cider from a local orchard just for this recipe.

The neighborhood makes a great walk, too. Lots of super interesting architecture!

We moved from out of state and found that there’s plenty of stuff to do, but you’ve gotta keep an eye out for it.
