Feeling better

We are almost better. At least, I am. I think Kendall has a sinus infection and I'm not sure what all is going on with Clayton. I tend to let things run their course before I call the doctor and I think my kids have been miserable long enough. I will make some appointments for the kids tomorrow. And we were hardly sick all winter. This has hit us hard.

In spite of having a rough week, we had a party Saturday night for my husband's post-doctoral student, Franci. She is moving back to her home, Brazil, for a permanent position at a university. I knew I was feeling better when I was actually looking forward to making some desserts. I made three: my chocolate cake (I make all the time), a pound cake (first time ever), and a key lime pie (first time this year).



My husband did burgers on the grill. It was nice to see people. My kids were good sports even though they didn't feel that great.

Hey girl. You are SO going to have to share those recipes with us. Yummmmm... that chocolate cake looks soooooo yummy. Not to mention that key lime pie. Actually, I can't say I've ever even tasted a key lime pie before. Is it sort of cheese-cakey? Or more like pumpkin pie? PS glad you're feeling better too. Chocolate cake will do that for ya. c",)
