Baking in the Time of Corona Part II - Addicted


It's true.
We are addicted to this bread and I am addicted to baking it.
NO DOUBT this is the best bread in the world. 
Here's the recipe:

The Ants Really Are Marching...


Anders has moved the Ants into his tank.
A test-tube with a small colony was placed in the tank.
By the morning the workers had moved the queen safely out of the test tube along with all of the eggs and other ants.  Luckily we can see the queen right in a small tunnel near the glass. This has been a thrilling addition to our stay at home pandemic coronavirus times.

Mother's Day



Lovely.  
Cards made by the boys this Mother's day.
This was in addition to breakfast in bed, and some homemade gifts.  
Embroidery, a wood burned heart and a fish pillow.
Just lovely.

Corona Messages from the Kitchen


Art in the Time of Corona Part VI


It's been 8 weeks now that we have been home due to the pandemic.
Each day, instead of crossing off the day, we draw a picture or put up a word.
Chalk markers have never been used as much as they are now.  Each Friday we mark the number of coronavirus cases in Vermont, which have only continued to rise.  We are up to nearly 1000 cases.
The calendar is growing more beautiful by the week.  The path of the virus, not that beautiful.
