Since the last post...

** Written December 19th :)

Wow, in the mere hours it's been since I wrote the last post, my hands have been quite busy. My oldest was sick twice this afternoon and unfortunately didn't make it to the toilet either time.... so my hallway (and walls) and bathroom have been disinfected not once, but twice today, and seeing how I had just cleaned the toilet yesterday, it's been now cleaned three times in two days, that may be too much information - but is pretty much unheard of for me, unless out of necessity of course. He perked up this afternoon and ate a full supper and bedtime snack but was tucked in and asleep before 8pm. Praying his little body recharges well tonight.

 My little lady has developed a cough that started yesterday and worsened this morning. Thanks to this Homemade cough syrup recipe that I made first thing this morning (cutting onions before I've eaten anything was not a good idea!) anyhow, she is still coughing, but she likes the syrup and it did settle down into the evening - though I have already been in twice to settle her, so it may be a long night!

My hands have also...
- Felt a babe kick within my womb and attempted to give it just a few minutes of attention amidst a busy day
- been busy in the kitchen prepping ganache for truffles, making a batch of these to die for (healthy) chocolate macaroons, and prepping loaves to be cut and baked again tomorrow for crisps that tast like those really expensive crackers from the grocery store. I'll share the recipe depending how they turn out!
 - done the many dishes and cleanup that follows baking! And now I have tucked in at 9:30, hubby on call tonight, and the final thing these hands will do before resting will be to knit.....
