Three Day Weekend!

Wm and I have a three day weekend - unfortunately, Steve has to work tomorrow.  But Wm and I have grand plans.  We are going to rebuild the Slave I (Boba Fett's ship) and hang it from Wm's ceiling.  Then, we are going to make s'more bars for Wm to take in his lunch this week for his treat.  There will likely be one more viewing of Harry Potter before it gets returned to the library and Wm says he wants to take an "excise walk" to make his body healthy.  So it will be a full day!

Today was equally exciting.  Wm did a great job folding his laundry so he got to go to lunch at Graffiti Burger:


On the way home, we decided to stop at Kroger since it's on the way home.  I will not be going there again.  They didn't have half the stuff I needed, what they did have looked subpar, and the total was only $8 less than what we spent at Whole Foods last time we went (but, Whole Foods actually had everything I wanted - so I got even more stuff!)  

After we had to make a second run to Weiland's to complete our shopping, I decided to make scones for Wm's breakfasts this week.  I figured as long as we had all the stuff out, I'd make a double batch.  So I made some for Steve and I as well. I decided Steve and I should have a cream tea (which, I discovered as I tried to figure out where to buy clotted cream, is what Americans often erroneously call high tea - which is actually more  a meal with cold meats, veggies, and breads).   I'm not sure Steve was a superfan of cream tea (he kept repeating, "pip pip and all that!" with a bad British accent), but he LOVED the lemon curd!  We all couldn't believe how amazing the scones were.  Then I realized why.  I usually make them with whole wheat flour so they are a better breakfast for Wm...but I forgot this time.  And here's my question - why did god make white flour so delicious if it's supposed to be bad for you?
