Tess is sitting on the toilet and asked me for some privacy, so I'm taking advantage of the next five minutes by posting quickly. The photo of the kids in our snowy driveway was taken last week and thankfully Finn is as enthusiastic about shoveling as I am (for real - some weeks it's the only exercise I get!) We were out yesterday for an hour and cleared the way for the 50' degree weather heading here in a couple of days. I can't WAIT. Even though it's only a respite in winter, it will be a welcome one.
The big news in our house is that our new Vitamix blender arrived this weekend and we've already made a half-dozen smoothies (sneaking in vegetables, heh heh) and fruit juices and WOW. How have I been feeding my family without this thing? Last night after dinner I made peach sorbet, it took all of 3 minutes and tasted delicious. But halfway through her bowl, Tess told me she was "sorbeted out." In her defense, she is on Day 5 of a pesky cold, but still ... I've never been sorbeted out in my life so I'm not sure where she got that one.
