brownies

Nate made some delicious frosted brownies. The frosting is made of melted Krackels and Mr. Goodbars. We're still using up Halloween candy!

latest flower update

We saw red-winged blackbirds during a walk. The rhubarb is up, the narcissuses have started to bloom and so have the phlox! One of the rhododendrons I planted last year didn't die!

It feels weird not using reusable grocery bags, but the cats love the paper ones!

fun with fondant

After watching a few recent episodes of British Baking Show, Jane wanted to experiment with fondant. She made a chocolate cake and the fondant herself! Of course she had to decorate it with a cat! She said it was more fun than playing with play-doh.

holidays

It was too bad we weren't able to celebrate Passover or Easter with extended family, but we managed to have a good time anyway. The nice weather helped!
