Saturday Hike

Before all of the snow melted away (again) a group of us decided to take a walk through the woods:

Our walk just happened to be on mountain bike trails, so it was well decorated:

We found a geocache - despite not geocaching:

And an old truck, complete with bullet holes?

Delightful company:

Beautiful Dresses

Spending some time on Pinterest tonight I spotted a series of beautiful dresses. They are full of frills and layers and comfortable looking material. They are unfortunately on very skinny models:

Book Find

While putting some books away in an elementary school library last week I came across this book and couldn't help but take a picture of it to share:

The hen was my favourite.

Trip To Wentworth

After a two year break I finally made my way back to a ski hill. The break certainly wasn't intentional, it just seemed that I didn't get out. So yesterday Greg and I went to Wentworth yesterday and spent the day throwing ourselves down the hill and had fun doing it.

The hill was pretty worn in by the time we got there (around 11:30) so there were a number of icy patches and on my first run I learned where a few of those were...the hard way. I slipped on my toe edge and landed on my knees - ouch!

Lots of colours! Thankfully with all of my other falls (there were many) I landed on my bum and just kicked up a lot of snow, got up, dusted myself off and kept on my way down the hill. Greg also had his fair share of wipe outs, but I seemed to take the cake in the bruise department!

Homemade Granola Bars

I like granola bars. Unfortunately they have lots of packaging and many have ingredients that I can't eat (lactose, gluten). To fix this predicament I decided to make my own granola bars.

Here's the recipe that I tried out to make these yummy bars:

I did make some changes to the recipe - I left out the chocolate and didn't use as much cinnamon (we had very little left!), but it turned out really good. I'm wondering if they will freeze since I don't think I can eat this many before they go off.

Next time I'll also make them thinner, these are particularly thick!
