I'm so happy we were able to do a nice little FHE today after Layla got home from school. It started with an impromptu fondue! I received a nice little fondue pot from a client for a Christmas gift, so Layla and I started to take it out today and play with it. So when Dan came in, we surprised him with apples and bananas in white chocolate! Yum!
I'm usually better at taking pictures from arms reach, but not with three people! In the first one, I'm blocking Dan, but in the second one, Layla is cut off! And I never managed to get a glimpse of the pot in the picture! I'll need to practice the three person shot!
So here is the little pot, all by itself! It's surprising how much heat a little tea light can give off! I took this picture while Daniel was cutting up more banana! So delicious!
After the fondue, we did an FHE activity that I've been thinking about for a while. We each made little individual posters with our names, a hand drawn picture of our own likeness, and some goals for the new year. Even Daniel participated and pretended to enjoy being creative! Poor guy is sometimes out of place in our girly home!
The temperature is very cold, and is expected to drop more throughout the week. I'm not pleased. I forgot to plug my car in this morning. Of course, it did not start. Luckily (not for Layla) Daniel's car did, so 'TED' whisked Layla away to school this morning! [TED is Dan's car]
Today was also a momentous occasion! We finally finished putting away all the Christmas decorations and put the boxes back in our crawlspace! It's sad to see Christmas go, but it is refreshing to have a little more wiggle room in our little house!
Lewis has been getting restless lately. It's so cold we can only take him for little walks every other day or so. He has so much fun, but his haunches just shiver!
