While the husband is away...the wife will

Bake!
Yep. I made bread and cookies and cake this evening so far and its not even 6pm. I even went out and picked a ton more cherries for some more pie filling to can.
I desperately need to decorate this place, but I am just not good at it.I have a ton of pictures to hang and I just dont want to do it. I need some serious motivaton. I just keep telling Tom that I "decorate with scent", you know...baking bread, scones, garlic anything. It keeps it smelling like I can cook, which is a very good facade =).
I went and spent a bunch of money at the Academic Toolbox yesterday, I love that store. (For non locals....Its a teacher supply store in wenatchee) I ended up coming out with a spongebob colorfelt set (Dont hate!) and one of those huge school calandars that are in every 1st through 5th grade classroom. Why you ask? because it had pumpkins on it and I love them. =)

So a joys of boys moment for you: Boston was in the store with me and announces to the lady standing by the door. "You are very pretty and you have big boobies". WTH! Who had been teaching my kid things like this?! I was sooooo embarassed, there was nothing I could even say except "I am so sorry." and Pack up my kiddos and pretty much run out the door. And just for the record we do not even use the word "boobies" in this house. I am mortified that he not only learned it but that he executed it in a sentence!
