It's Snowing!



It snowed from about noon to 5:00 this evening for a total of about an inch. It's very pretty and we even got to throw a few snowballs.

Seth and I have been doing Wyldlife for Boonsboro middle schoolers; we had 18 kids at club on Friday. We only do club once a month, so it's tough to learn names and get to know kids, but hopefully a bunch of kids will come to weekend camp in March and we'll get some good quality time then.

Seth has been re-reading the Dune series. He took a reading break and made Vietnamese-style beef noodle soup today. He was trying to emulate the soup from the Vietnamese restaurant in North Palm Beach. The soup was good, but he said it wasn't quite what it should have been. We drove to Frederick yesterday to go to the Asian market and buy ingredients. I bought nori and made sushi last night - it was pretty good. I'll have to make it again soon, but I need to find a place that sells sushi rice.

So that's about all for now. Oh, except that we're going skiing on Friday (those of us who work at MCE get a discount at Wisp). I signed up for ski lessons since it was a really god deal and I figure I should learn. If I don't like it, I can always go back to the snowboard. Seth isn't interested in skiing.
