Marci shared a recipe for the lightest, fluffiest biscuits ever and we just had to try them. Wow, were they light, fluffy and delicious with a dab o' butter. And most important easy to make! The girls took their job as bakers quite seriously and took to task mixing, rolling and patting out their soft lumps of dough. Being good stewards they surprised their dolls with petite biscuits that only tiny hands can produce. Even one of the dolls participated carefully kneading and patting the dough into balls. It was a splendid snowy afternoon.
On another note, My darling little daughter waiting in China has decided not she could not wait for me and had to begin walking. How bittersweet, I want her to progress but deep down am melancholy that I missed this small right of passage in her life. Day 65 and no news of LOA for us ... I had so hoped for it this week. I am happy for all those who will be traveling soon to pick up their precious blessings!! For now I can live through their journeys until our turn comes and we can with out hindrance run to our Little Flower.
