Apr 2
April Showers bring up the flowers!
Horticulture- Started the day working on the raspberry patch. Got the pathways laid and some compost in. We have found pathways make of metal last much longer and keep the weeds out better than wood paths. Still need to move a few more plants and put some hay on top. Probably won't get it done before the rain comes. Tree blossoms are beautiful!
Weather- Poured rain, and had some hail. No more outdoor activities today.
Home ec- The great baking began! The girls make 3 loaves of bread and another batch of Scott's famous mint brownies. Only this time Brittney made the mint portion purple instead of green. She wouldn't admit it, but pretty sure she didn't want to use the last of the green food coloring on actual food because then she wouldn't have any left to dye her horse green!
Perhaps she is going to have to make herself a green apron so she doesn't get herself so dirty while baking!
Just in case you are wondering, the mint brownies still taste just as yummy when they are purple.
Apparently the homemade bread was really good too, but I wouldn't know.
