yup, more snow fell overnight (mid-march!), but it is really sunny today so it is melting most of the stuff that fell, although there was still quite a bit on the ground in the first place; totally bizarre! japan suffered from a huge earthquake and tsunami a week ago, and now one of the nuclear power plants is really not looking good, already people are suffering from radiation; this has definitely put a lot of sadness into our days, but we must keep striving to live life to the fullest, no matter what...
on a lighter note, me and honey completed the belly cast finally! it was actually not that difficult, just messy, but even that was super easy to clean up, i'm not sure how i am going to decorate it yet...
and i also completed the gifts for the midwives... felted fairies! it just fit so perfectly with what the midwives are all about...
feeling good, almost too good, like baby doesn't want to come out... must be nice in the tummy:)
and what is a smell i would love to capture in a bottle... roasted granola! wow did it ever smell good as i tried to roast it on top of the woodstove, which totally worked! so now we have some delicious granola to munch on for breakfast or as a late night snack, which is what has been happening lately:) here is the recipe i fiddled with:
