Inside

It's cold and damp and gray lately. The perfect weather to stay inside. We looked at snowflakes under the magnifying glass, made some snow ice cream (it's really good! About 6 cups of fresh snow, 1/4 a cup of heavy cream, 4 tbsp of maple syrup and some vanilla extract, mash with potato masher and you've got some pretty good vanilla soft serve!), did some sewing for the dolls, baked a very tasty galette of winter greens, played many rounds of Skip-Bo and Five Crowns, played some music and stayed outside just long enough to enjoy a warm apple cider afterwards.
