This Is What I Did Yesterday.
Yesterday I:
Consumed three helpings of snow cream. (If it’s an addiction – it is certainly a limited one, as I can only indulge in this particular addiction on one or two days a year. Thus, I will forgive myself for my excessive behavior.)
Noticed that my hands look like the hands of a geriatric woman. Is it the cold? The dry winter weather? Is my rapid aging problem pertaining to my appendages only?
Booked two nights at a campground in Pepin, Wisconsin for this summer. The Prairie Journey officially begins where Laura’s life began – in the Big Woods of Wisconsin.
Prepared salmon cakes for the first time. (Second attempt at adding fish to our diets.) I’ll share the recipe soon. They were a roaring success.
Played multiple games of Go Fish and put together several puzzles with Otto Fox Wilder. What a treat to spend extra one on one time today with that fella. It seems that typical school days have Otto tagging along with us or playing cars and dinosaurs near by, so it was special to look directly at him, listen to him and laugh as he said his funny phrases. The human skeleton puzzle was a tricky one, but hearing Otto say “nice” every time I found a connecting piece was pretty priceless.
Did not see our thermostat register above 58 degrees. The funny thing is – that no longer feels all that cold to me.
Cuddled with Digory on the sofa even though we used to have a no-dogs-allowed-inside policy. He’s just so cute and brown and pleasant-eyed.
Embraced Wildwood’s Official Snow Policy.
What did you do with your day?
