This week, I made African peanut stew.
The picture does not do it justice, it was very good.
I have some complaints about my wardrobe. My underwear aren’t right, the pants mom bought me are for toddlers, and I am SO over the sneakers without LACES.
That’s better. Now about my underwear…
We did not have school on Friday. Why not? It’s not like The Bigs have jobs or anything. Mom took Hazel and me to the rock gym.
I climbed to the very top every single time.
I did some cross country skiing on Saturday. I said I was tired, but I just kept going.
And then on Sunday, I did some ‘pine.
We were all having fun, until…
I decided it was time to conquer my last lift. NORTHWEST EXPRESS. The Bigs conferred. They felt confident there had to be one reasonable run off the lift. Incorrect.
So, we chose this one.
Oh, yes, it was an icy black diamond.
Even The Bigs admitted it was terrible. They said it was a ‘character building experience’. I guess that is another way to say BAD PARENTING.
I made it down and was all smiles. Maybe, just maybe, they were right.
Some other things we ate this week:
Teff waffles:
and injera bread.
Another busy and exciting week skiing. Looks like you are trying to keep up with the Olympics. Those sneakers look pretty cool. The injera bread looks like a big flat chocolate cookie. How does it taste
Wow M you have no fear! You are a rock climbing monkey and a scary Devils Backbone skier. I sure hope you won’t want to go on that run ever againš³
You are quite an innovative chef. African peanut stew? That was different. Hope you enjoyed the waffles and I really hope you get new underwear soon. can’t have a new wardrobe with underwear that has super heroes on them!!!
Those waffles looked amazing. I’ve made that African stew and loved it. I remember your Pop brought me down one of those “hills” with the little black diamonds on the sign-it was called Bodie’s run. I was terrified, I think he said the same thing “character building”. I think just bad “brothering”. Don’t give up the tieless shoes, you’ll want to wear them when you get old again. Pain in the neck always re- tying those laces and people always pointing at your feet and saying “your shoes are untied”.
