Jake is currently mad at me. Let me start off this post by saying that he got to go with his grandparents and cousin yesterday to a local festival, and then his cousin got to stay the night.

He stayed … Continue reading He’s adapting well…

She came up on July 28, 2017, after I bought the "good flour" (ie: Gold Medal All Purpose), and I photographed and recorded her as she did this, not realizing it would be the … Continue reading Gramma Izzie’s noodles – video of Gramma!
