So I sent a birthday package to Katie in Ohio. I wrapped the inside of the box with scrapbook paper. I didn't have any birthday wrapping paper, so I got creative. I made Katie's favorite treats-- Peanut butter Krispies -- and put them in tupperware. I gave a few little toys inside, a bag of mints, a huge homemade Birthday card, a letter, and a few pictures I knew she'd like. It was so fun making it for her. I think I'll do it again soon-- maybe for Christmas.
Speaking of Christmas, for the past 3 weeks I have been really wishing it was Christmas time. I just want to listen to Christmas music. I love that time of year. Sadly we have no Christmas music or movies. :( Bummer. Do you think they're selling any Christmas music?

I took this picture because after I topped this sandwich off, it was HUGE. I made it for Pax- and I don't think he could fit his mouth around the whole thing. It looked pretty though. All I needed was a flagged toothpick. With my no meat month I have a lot more vegetables on hand than usual, so I stacked his sandwich. Yumm.

Today I made 2 batches of
berry jam!!! Paxton's sister and niece picked fresh blueberries and blackberries, and they gave them to me to cook with. So i decided to make jam. I also had a frozen rasp/blue/blackberry mix that I made another batch with. We go through jam so quickly because I eat pb&j every single day... I'm surprised I'm not sick of em. Anyway, I'm so excited to try some.

Paxton and I have been enjoying a really relaxing weekend. It's been nice to not have too many plans and always going going going. We just don't want the week to start up again... ugh.
Bye bye*
