Sunday

 The weekend has been all about family, homework and what to do with the blueberries. I spent the better part of the day studying Charlie Chaplin and the beginning of film making for my cinema class. I have concluded Thomas Edison took credit for way more than he deserved, that Chaplin was a comedic genius and that watching silent films is something I find to be relaxing. It made for a long day wherin the New York Times got neglected. Nicholas woke up with a fever and a stuffy nose so we have spent the day inside which should almost be illegal as it is a beautiful 70 degrees out. But we needed the rest and relaxation. Yesterday we got out and did some fun stuff and today I finally did something with those blueberries....

I whipped up a blueberry crumb cake from 3 cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 pkg jello instant vanilla pudding, 1 cup of veg. oil, pinch of salt, shake or two of vanilla, nutmeg, a little milk and of course blueberries..I even through in a few blackberries...shhhhh topped with a homemade crumb topping and an hr in the oven....

And a boyfriend who likes to take pictures of me slaving away :)

Topped off with vanilla iced cream...whole bean while warm

Asparagus is in season ..I like mine steamed with a little butter sea salt and fresh parmesan

We spent Saturday at Chip & Ruby's and took the boys to Philadelphia Sandwich Co. for lunch.. it was a gorgeous day. Nicholas won 650 tickets from the arcade games. I couldn't believe it... enough for 2 hotwheels a foldup frisbee and a mini basketball hoop and ball

It is going to be a good week and I am very blessed to have re-charged my batteries this weekend. Happy Sunday and Sweet Dreams.
