The Gallery Wall

Pat wanted to show off her gallery- pictures, origami, sculptures, and other creations from her grand kids and neighborhood kids.
This wall is a source of constant encouragement and support when she needs it most.
Takin it allllll in:)

Let them eat cake

So- in our efforts to bulk Pat up a bit, we've been recalling our favourite fatty treats. The latest favourite- good ol fashioned chocolate cake. No mocha-heaven-48-layer-fudge-cocoa-delight chocolate cake- just a straight up, purist chocolate cake.
So far we've sample Nigella's and Barefoot Contessa's recipes, with pretty good results- next up- Martha's.
We'll let you know what Pat selects as the winner.

Off to slice her another piece!

cake ('n) walk

Along with running errands daily with my dad, Pat has been enjoying Sara's delicious homemade chocolate cake (like, a LOT of it!), and walking the Big Guy.

Lets hope for better weather SOON so that Sara can safely transport another chocolate cake down from Calgary, and mom can walk with Leo on snow-free paths!
