Red Thread...

There is an ancient Chinese belief which states that there is an invisible red thread that connects each of us to all of the individuals who have been, currently are, and will in the future be important to us in our lives.

This red thread can stretch, twist, and bend… but will never break.

Video Game Time

When Jennifer had the week off, she and Katie had a bit of time to play some video games!

Aunt Jennifer and I have fun when we work on video games together!

Off to Jennifer's

We ended up making three loaves of blueberry zucchini bread, so Katie chose one of the loaves to share with Jennifer.

I was happy to share with Aunt Jennifer!

Cooking

We had some fresh blueberries, so Katie decided to make blueberry zucchini bread.

I wasn't sure I loved the green color of the batter, but the bread turned out really yummy and didn't look green at all!

Another Zucchini

Katie was excited to harvest a second zucchini, so she had enough for baking!

I was so happy that the zucchini grew so fast!

I had two zucchinis ready. Now what should I make?

Summer Reading

Katie has had a new interest in Greek Mythology, so she was pretty excited when she got Percy Jackson, The Lightning Thief from the library.

I love this new book that involves the Greek Gods!

A Surprise

Part of our summer garden is a hanging basket full of strawberry plants. While Katie and I were watering everything, we found quite a surprise in the strawberry pot.

Who would think we would find a zucchini growing out of our strawberry pot?

The Best Time

Katie has discovered that the best time for blackberry picking is earlier in the morning or in the evening when the sun is going down because the bees have gone away by then.

I don't like being anywhere close to bees, so I was glad I discovered when they're gone.

We ran out of fruit in the house this week, so I was extra thankful for our blackberry bushes!
