Tonight
The Call: Local Harvest Cheryl
After Jack’s “checkout” with the pediatrician, we stopped at the shop of our local apple orchard (less than half a mile from our house: quite convenient) and picked up a few things. Tonight, I’ll use the plums and apples in a crisp, the cucumbers as a side with our brown rice pasta, and I may even put the candles on the table and light them, for a nice change of pace.
The Response: Homework — Jessica
School is back in full swing. All the rules and regulations are learned and the teachers have begun to teach. Now the homework really begins. So, tonight, once they get home from their scout meeting, my two high schoolers will have a heavy stack of books to crack open.
Those plums are gorgeous! Heck, the whole basket is beautiful and delicious looking!
They do look tasty, don’t they? The Plum Apple Crisp I made with them smells delicious. We are looking forward to dessert.
Tell your kids that I’m sorry they’re faced with all that homework.
