Dearest Chris... Another FUN and YUMMY Baking Friday Adventure!!! What FUN you all have!!! And there you go again; teaching the kidz skills they will have their entire lives!!! THE TEACHER IN ME LOVES THIS PART!!!

Love those Whoopie Pies!!! Boy, those could be filled with so many delightful things!!! Imagine the options: Strawberry Filling made of whipped cream, and FRESH strawberries sandwiched in yellow whoopies; Bananas and fluff which has been made yellow (of course) in a peanut butter cake whoopie (call it the Elvis Whoopie Pie as those were his flavors; Apples with whipped cream as fillings with a sprinkle of cinnamon before the Whoopie is closed... Oh, my mind could go WILD on these ideas!!!

Quiet day on the farm, but I did get the back of my truck cleaned out. It needed a good clean out that\'s for sure! Now, I\'m on the search for a plastic box to keep my bottles of water, window washer fluid, and other chemicals I carry in case I have an overheating issues... Lots of things to consider with an older vehicle, but She\'s what I\'ve got! Love having a truck with no truck payment, I just don\'t have bells and whistles like AC or auto up/down windows... I have those old fashioned handles you have to turn... LOL...

Tomorrow, I\'m off to the Post Office, WalMart, and probably grocery for more fresh veggies... We eat so many veggies and fruit that it\'s hard to keep up! Definitely will remember the packages as they are already in my truck--something I have to do to remember stuff...

Love to you and Mom and Dad and Kayla, Taylynn, and Michael!!! Have a GREAT evening in CT!!! xoxoxo Cj
