Sounds like rain. Eyeballs confirmed: rain. With spring weather comes April Showers, so it’s a trade off I will take. Long time, no pancake! I made one big fat Kodiak cake this morning (add less water to the batter to make it thick enough for a tall, fat pancake). I added some coconut and a [...]

First we went on a glorious hour-long walk in the nice weather [replacing the planned dark movie theater], then we dressed up and went out to dinner.

Spring might not be here for a few more weeks, but today I am pretending it is April. Not only is it a gorgeous day, but I walked to the bakery in SHORT SLEEVES! Matt is on a field trip today, so I’m big boss for the day. It’s kind of scary to think that [...]
