I wasn’t feeling very well a few days ago, so Anna decided to cheer me up. She secretly drew a cheery picture for me. I was very impressed because she usually gives some type of hint that she is making a “surprise” birthday card or picture, but this time I had no clue she was [...]

4-2=2 (wheels)

A week or so ago, I was noticing that Anna seems to have enough balance on her bike to take the training wheels off, but I wasn’t sure how I was going to convince her to try it. It turns out that a boy about her age that lives nearby took care of the convincing [...]

In my search for oatmeal chocolate chip cookies a week ago, I discovered 2 recipes that were possibilities. As it turned out, neither recipe was the right one, but both were good. The one I posted previously was a light crispy recipe that worked quite well without egg.*
These cookies did not spread much in the [...]
