Watching and waiting
It’s been a real home projects kind of a day. Cleaning, laundry, stuff like that. But also I’m making good on my promise to make Ingrid some strawberry ice cream. Since we don’t tolerate salicylates very well, I substituted rhubarb for strawberries. They taste very similar if you add lots of sugar, but while berries are very high in sals, rhubarb is pretty low. Very convenient for me!
Right now Ingrid is making pumpkins, Crater Lake, and Niagara Falls with the playdough we made. Andrew is out riding his bike on his lunch break, and Ginger is watching for falling scraps of playdough. The house smells amazing since we are baking some bread. I just peeked and it’s ready, but my half-whole wheat experiment didn’t rise like the all-white version. Too bad. I’ll have to keep looking for a better recipe.
