While Scott Goes to Vermont We Go on an Adventure

Every morning must start with Nintendo Switch time.  Every morning must always start with porch breakfast.  Theo told me he wants to start learning how to cook and bake. We started our first lesson with making scrambled eggs.  Also Theo decided earlier this week he wanted his haircut. He was sick of his hair blowing in his eyes and touching his neck. He also mentioned that a couple kids at school asked if he was a boy or girl. 

Boiler Gets Replaced, Kiddo Snuggles and Finally Painting the Attic Pine Floors

  Our maybe 80 year old boiler was getting replaced this week. It seemed more exciting while shopping for one. You may ask, "Scottie, why did you buy the 84% efficient boiler." Well 95% efficient tend to last half as long and eventually I'd like this boiler to be our cold weather backup to some sort of heat pump. We'll see. They couldn't get our vintage boiler out with all the snow and ice. We'd have a strange lawn ornament for a couple of weeks. Before painting the attic floors, I had to finish skim coating and then painting our bedroom closet.   Theo saw me sewing a button and wanted to learn too. We worked on buttons then I gave him this grid to practice stitches. He even said, "This is almost better than TV." He even made a pillow for his baby.  Our living room is usually a Magnatile city of sorts.  More like Picasso Tile and knockoff Brios. I think we even have some generic Duplos.  For the first time in forever I made Sunday breakfast. My favor...

Biking Down to Seward's Quaint Milwaukee Avenue.

Good morning sunshine! I tried a second time to make kaiserscharrn . This authentic Austrian recipe had a lot more eggs with the whites separated and whipped.
