Plugging Along

Made a lot of progress this week. Should be on track to have the surprises ready for the girls when they get back late on Thursday night. Can't wait! Got a bit more snow last night, so maybe the sledding hill will be in pretty good shape upon their return. 

They continue to have lots of fun. The girls are staying with their friend, Elin, for the weekend and they get to go to school with her tomorrow. What a great experience! They both made videos of their lives here to share with their former classmates. Very curious to see what they think about that.

Had a really nice dinner with some new friends Sarah and John who recently built an eco-house by the lake. Cool to get some ideas from them. Also enjoyed the final Friday dinner with our Lebanese friends. She cooked a special plant that you can't get here, known by some as West African Sorrel, and I hadn't had it since Mali, so it brought back memories. Special night. 

Chilly nights!

No more cheesecake. So sad.
