Day 44

After a few hair-raising days of dictation (and sometimes close to decapitation), Jorja finished her first round of letters to loved ones. If you do not receive one this round, please be bear with us. We hope to send some more off once we've all recovered.


Jorja putting the finishing touches on her 5th and final letter 

Visiting the US Postal Service
On the drive back, we travelled through Lebanon where P-J found the Harley Davidson store. Need I say more? We ended up in Hanover (Dartmouth College Town) but were too early for the Farmer's Market that would open at 3pm, so we made a mental note to return next week and head back home.

While Jorja and Ethan napped, P-J got started on the quiches for Sunrise Farm

Jorja woke up to her Dad dashing around in the kitchen and captured the moment

Then he commissioned me, nogal, to bake a blueberry cake.

Cinnamon Crumble Topping

Basic vanilla sponge

Fresh  or frozen berries

Layer sponge mix then berries

Cover with the crumble

Bake for 40min at 400F
What we ended up with was a soft and sweet pudding-like spoonful with a powerful berry punch and the crispy streudel to make the blow well worth it. Yum! If there was any left over, I'd suggest that we serve it with custard. If there was any left over...

Between all of this, our beloved Bruno (Mars) also got his monthly haircut. Gosh, I didn't realise that boys needed their haircut quite so often!

Before
After
All this action as we celebrated our Yaya's birthday from way over here in America. Happy Birthday!

Yaya opening her gift from all of us...

...and Matthew and Zac break it in!

  1. All that dashing must be good - look how thin Pj's got!

  2. I love how Ethan has taken to standing with his hands in his pockets - like an old man!
