Seattle took a few snow days and we have been making the most of it. One thing about living in Greenlake that I love is the abundance of life around. This life is especially present on the days when school is out! Kids and parents were everywhere-- lined up on any available downhill slope taking turns sledding down the streets.

We decided to stay close to home and enjoy the luxury of not having anything pressing to take care of.

We visited the snowman,

made chicken succotash soup,

and made pumpkin bread with raisins and toasted pecans. Maya enjoys helping in the kitchen. It usually means the task takes twice as long, but it also means that it's twice as much fun.

Split down the middle and packaged to deliver to John and Scarlett down the street.
