A few days ago I finally scheduled a walk with people from the Barony. That walk was today. I put the walk on a Barony Facebook page and a few people wanted to go but couldn't and a few could. In the end, just one family was able to join K and I on our walk. It seemed to work out well though and I hope to schedule more of these around the state. Masks were required and we were outside, so we should have been safe. It was a good time. Other happy things for today are:
- Ducks in the pond.
- Gideon helped me make an apple pie for tomorrow by using the apple peeler, corer, slicer. He also mixed the cinnamon and sugar as well as providing a play-by-play that went something like--and now the cinnamon and sugar are added to the apples. What's next? Stirring!-- and so on. He has a nice announcer voice.
- K made the pie crust. It was a different recipe than we usually use. I think it will taste okay and look forward to trying it tomorrow. It didn't want to roll out though and I ended up pushing the crust into the pie pan. This is not a problem, just not what I expected. It looks like it cooked up well too.
- On the way to the walk, K and I listened to a podcast by Brené Brown that we finished on the way home. This gave us some good conversation and things to think about.
- I just figured out how to put the accent over the e in Brené. The first Google options that were presented to me didn't work. I had to ask Google how to do them in Blogger.
- I'm going to try growing carrots again, from the tops I cut off before grating some today. I grated them to go into a jello salad thing that we make around the holidays.
