Firebuilder!
Portia built this fire all by herself. I only lit it (and opened the damper quickly when it started to smoke…). Very good use of a sick day home from school last week!

Happy 14th Birthday, Graydon!
No cake of course, for our never-liked-cake big guy. But some Happy Birthday marzipan, and some healthy orange slices.

Skiing cousins
Jonathan is only six weeks older than Portia, and while Portia has a few more days of experience on the slopes, Jonathan made up for that with a little more gumption and a thirst to prove himself. So the two of them made great skiing buddies.
Yes, we can!
Feed 10 dinner for people in a 1940's era log cabin with no running water and a wood burning stove as the only source of ambient heat during sub-freezing temperatures!
