While Dave and Noelle slept in late this morning Thomas and I made pancakes from scratch for breakfast. It was my first time without help from Bisquick. Julie would be so proud!
They were very good especially topped with my homemade strawberry freezer jam. I had only had the cooked kind and then several years ago Sister Welton gave me some of her freezer jam and my life was transformed. It’s the only way to go. It tastes so fresh and sweet, I love it! My mom is going to laugh and say that I am finally becoming domestic after so many years of refusing to do so, but I think I just needed to find the right place to blossom in. I think I’m finally here.
The weather here has changed dramatically in the past few days. The temperature today was about 25 degrees less than it was on Tuesday and it was totally windy! Not good for Thomas’ allergies but great for flying a kite. So that’s what we did.
Dave spent more time flying the kite than the kids did.
Thomas taking a turn.
Noelle had to take a turn as well but to be honest she was much more interested in the dogs at the dog park down the way.
As I was reading this I was thinking about how much I love my mom's freezer jam...and then you talked about my mom's freezer jam! She is coming to visit me next month. I'll have to have her help me make some.
