Treats Day at JWU Teens Camp

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02391

Today was Andy’s last day of Teens culinary camp at Johnson and Wales. The last day of the camp week is always a day when parents can come and see, and taste test all the wonderful things that the kids made during the week. There were many tasty treats. I’ll have to take Andy and Allison’s word for it since I only had a small piece of a snickerdoodle cookie. I had to try something and since I was only trying one thing I made sure it was one of my favorites.I do love a good snickerdoodle cookie after all.

During the week Andy also decorated a cake. The cakes are all Styrofoam and have fondant covering the cake. From there Andy designed the rest of the cake in fondant. Andy decided upon a whale and did an amazing job making it. They said that it is based on the Whale emoji. I didn’t know that there was a whale emoji.

After picking Andy up I drove down to the Cape to pick up Eva. We're all heading to New Hampshire tomorrow so we had to get her and bring her home after work today. Luckily the traffic wasn't terrible. I was able to run down and get her and have dinner with my parents, Tara and Erik and then we turned around and headed home. Eva told me all about her past couple of weeks at the Cape and how much fun she has been having with her friends from Science School. She was very excited.

Sorting Transformers ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02424 Yesterday I drove Andy to school. Today I walked over with them. I did so not because I didn't think Andy would be safe on their own. Andy has been walking home from school for well over a year so walking to school is the same thing just in reverse. I wanted to see how long it actually took for the walk to go. I of course, over estimated how early we had to head over. The walk itself only takes a brisk 15 minutes. And that is at a modified teenager's shuffle. So Andy can leave the house around 6:25-6:30 and still get there by 6:45 when the doors open to the High School. Good to know. During the day I started one of the projects I've been meaning to start and have been putting off. I'm sorting through my Transformers and getting them ready to sell. I have talked with the guys at Double Midnight Comics about selling them my collection. Not the stuff I have on display and also I am picking out some figures that I want to keep as part of the collectio...

Time with Lexi ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02401 Today We watched my sister's dog, Lexi. My sister and her husband were coming back up here from their home and they had boarded the dog. They weren't sure if they'd be there in time to pick her up so we did that for them. We had Lexi for a couple of hours before they arrived and we had dinner together. Lexi was pretty chill for the most part until Torrun came in to the living room to investigate. At first they just looked at each other. Andy grabbed for LEXI's leash and then Lexi tried to go after Torrun. Torrun ended up bolting for the upstairs and we did not see her for hours. James knew enough not to even come down.

Time For Another Change ...

  Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02402 Andy decided to clean their room today. In so doing they decided that they no longer wish to hang on to their LEGO sets. So, I now have them all and I spent the afternoon disassembling many sets to fit into the one bucket. There were many Minecraft sets in there. What I'm going to do eventually is take what is in the bucket and separate it down to the individual sets that I still have instructions books for. The organizing of that is going to be daunting. I will try and figure out an efficient way to separate everything but I'm sure that will take some time. Andy also decided that they no longer want the piggy bank that was mine. That I am putting into a box for Andy for when they get older and maybe have kids of their own.
