Making the Best of It

After an early morning attitude adjustment, we're having a great day:

• we took a field trip to the stores, before Mama left for work, to get snacks and treats for the day;
• Sis built a HP Quidditch Lego set;
• Sis started making class valentines, completing seven;
• Bud is building an extensive Ninja-inspired Lego set;
• Sis made chocolate cupcakes (did you know that Nutella is the perfect frosting?);
• I started reading Cherries in Winter by Suzan Colon, a book I picked up on a whim because I liked the title, cover picture, and food writing/memoir content;
• we will take delivery of my treadmill this afternoon, if they can get in the snow-narrowed driveway;
• we have Stuart Little to finish and, if we do, James and the Giant Peach to start.

And there's always that snow to play in . . . .
