Quick Update

Pretzels for Octoberfest Party with Ben's Sailing Club Peeps

More appetizing picture of the pretzels

One morning Robert and I decided to make crepes (here is one with mozzarella)

It got a little crazy and no I am not talking about the ugly grey sweatpants. (Crazy thanks to Gord, who may not know it, but from whom I stole the best invention ever -- a crepe magician!!! ((the pan)))

This is the intersection by our house. I include it because I love that the slogan of the neighborhood is "the peaceable kingdom." The library near us has similar statues of animals - I think the wolf is nuzzling a sheep.

And then there was Halloween. (10 million dollars goes to the person who can correctly identify all costumes in this picture)

"Two mice fell into a bucket of cream. The first one, he gave up quickly and drowned. The second one refused to quit. He started kicking and churned that cream into buttah and walked out. Who's that second mouse?"


If I give up quickly, will it be over soon?
