Good Morning
We've had a few snowy days, one which was a storm because of wind. Very happy to be able to stay safe and warm at home. I still haven't done one bit of decorating. I spoke to my longtime young friend yesterday who said she hasn't either and she's a decorating ninja. So.....it's not all about me.
I did manage to bake bread and sandwich rolls yesterday. We are now covered for a few days. I told Mark with the high cost of seemingly everything I may need to start cooking like his mother did. He gave me a look of horror. This is not criticizing her abilities. Mark grew up on a dairy farm in SW Minnesota in a family of ten children. His mother grew up on a farm in the same area in a family of fourteen children. She knew how to stretch the food supply. He was never hungry but let's just say one can of tuna was stretched to feed them all. We had completely different lives.

I wonder if he's worried about portion size!
That is a lot of kids. Can you imagine the laundry produced by that many kids? And no automatic washer or dryer. My lord, I think I would just lay down and die.
That first photo is gorgeous! I could just kick myself for not being in that bread making mode. Everything you show us looks so good. Usually, when I make dinner there is enough left for one more meal and we are very happy with that. Can you imagine what your grocery bill would be today with all those kids?
