While we did see a touch of spring, winter doesn’t want to let go just yet. The boys had a good time riding the four wheeler and eventually getting the side by side out and getting stuck in the snow and pulling each other out. They only had to call for reinforcements twice. Four wheeling one day and snowmobiling the next. Maine weather truly does change from day to day.
Baking consisted of an ice cream cake, requested for the birthday boy.
With the snow on Sunday, we decided to stay home and relax; although I really wanted to go to Maine Maple Sunday in Berlin, NH to Patry’s Sugarhouse. Maybe next year or it sounds like they may have some other events which might work out. I sure would like to try their maple butter on some freshly baked bread.
The next couple of weekends have more birthday parties on the books. It sure makes the weekend go quick when there is a plan. I guess I better make good use of my Fridays off. I still have yet to tackle that crazy closet as before it gets better it is definitely going to get worse as everything has to be removed. I have to be in the mood to take on a project like that or I will either keep everything or throw things out that I probably should keep. So for now, until the mood strikes, it will stay as is.
My hens have been enjoying the warmer days and laying steady and eggs just keep rolling in. Thankfully I have a bunch of neighbors who contact me and buy dozens at a time. It is nice to see them and visit. Sometimes we chat about baking or even getting our gardens started and what we plan to plant. Speaking of that, I better getting ordering my carrots and onions soon but I better add it to my to-do list as the days get busy and things get forgotten.
That’s it for this week as it’s time to do some laundry, go to work and then a meeting. Life sure is busy lately.
