REST OF THE DAY

Big news is that Arielle told me today that she liked the Smuckers Natural peanut butter. It has salt and peanuts but that’s all….I can live with a bit of salt…..it’s way better than the Peter Pan with the sugar and salt. Arielle also told me that the new bread I made was good. This is the FIRST whole grain bread that she has liked. It IS good….it’s moister than the other bread which is strange because it’s basically the same…just a different mixture of grains. I guess I’ll be making 7 grain bread from here on out and not using the hard white much at all. LOL

We ran to Sam’s today. We’d hoped to go and pick up a present for a birthday party this weekend but I simply didn’t want to drag everyone into Hastings. I think we’ll try to do that before speech tomorrow.

We spent an hour and a half out at the lake. I enjoy it out there. I timed it in the van and it would be 6 or 7 miles to ride out there and back. I could do that. I must not have fully embraced this “play” stuff because I feel much better about my ride this a.m. since I went to the library.

Arielle reminded me that she has a birthday coming up. She’d like a party…so I’d best get planning.

Mike is working late again tonight. I think I’ll spend some time working on my co-op order; figuring out the great flax seed, flax meal and flax oil mystery; reading a fun book and possibly even surfing Barb Sheldton or Marilyn Howshall’s sites. But…first to PLAY with some little ones and then read a chapter of Narnia and get them in bed.
