We woke to clear skies and a beautiful sun rise! As I tidied the rooms and pulled the curtains to let the sunshine in I made sure to crack all of the windows to freshen the bedrooms. It didn't take long for the house to be filled with smells of Spring and new beginnings. It's one of my favorite smells!
My second favorite smell might be fresh baked bread! We were running low on white flour so I decided to make a batch of whole wheat to tide us over until grocery day. Finley eagerly scrambled up on the counter to help dump ingredients and push buttons. I was just grateful that Ollie slept through the noisy wheat grinder!
I tried a new recipe and beat it a little bit extra in the mixer. It looked so perfect after I put it in the bowl to rise!
While we waited on the bread dough we mixed up a batch of my favorite chocolate chip cookies. The first pan came out just in time for Camilla to sneak a few after she got off the bus!
Little man woke up happy and we hung out in his room while the fresh air poured through his cracked window. The greatest joys of life are sometimes found in the most simple things.
