Saturday
Today is a domestic day at Chez Hoosier.
The boy had a culinary request this morning, so that's where we started. Flour and baking powder and eggs, oil and honey and milk, and soon we had a pancake breakfast for four. Some were plain, and some were blueberry (depending on consumer preference); and though I am not the batter artist Rev. Ref. is (I default to the basic traditional round shape) all were well received. "You make the best pancakes, Mom!"
(Sorry, Ref-- you win the talent competition, hands down; but I'm retaining the title.)
What about the rest of the day? Lots to do, for all of us:

That list was just way too ambitious. I'm impressed with what you got done out of it.
Well, I certainly can't claim all the credit; it was a family list, this time, and a family effort.
And though I'd like to have gotten some more done, what we accomplished felt pretty good.
I always wanted to be able to burn our leaves. They don't let you do that where I grew up.
