I'm baking a cake that uses Lyle's Golden Syrup. It's a British thing. It has a pretty amber color, and tastes like a cross between honey and molasses.

Playing with some bowls. We like to put them on his head so that it looks like he's wearing a yarmulke ("yamaka").

This is our pool thermometer. Because we're wimpy Floridians, we probably won't get in the pool until the temperature reaches 80 degrees.
Almost there.

The succulent on our back porch is flowering. We inherited this from the previous owners. I have no idea what plant it is.

The squirt hangs out with me when I teach lessons. He usually pays attention for about half the lesson, and then he starts fussing.

Sienna lounging on our dining room table. She doesn't usually climb up onto tables and counters.

Here are a few more pictures of the stage lighting for the concert tonight. As our conductor said, "This is the closest some of us will ever get to being in a rock concert." Since most of us are classical musicians, I'd say he was right.

I'm playing a concert with the philharmonic that has an elaborate lighting program. Here is some of the lighting effects, taken with my phone.

Some of my duck collection. I got most of them from the schools where I work. There's one for most major holidays.

A distant view of the Hogwarts castle at Universal. It's not supposed to open until June. I can't wait!

Went to a garden festival that was nearby. Lots of foliage, ways to live green, food, and puppies!

Here are some food purees we've made. We freeze them in an silicone ice cube tray. Each cube is 1 oz., which makes measuring easy. Can you guess the flavors?

A slight cheat - I took this picture on April 9th. The pollen count has been through the roof lately. This is the hood of my car. The yellow spots are pollen. Rain is in the forecast for today, so maybe some of the pollen will wash away, and I will be able to breathe through my nose again.

Happy Easter! I hid some chocolate ducks for my husband to find on a little hunt.
And, just because...

Remember the balloons from a few days ago? This was the cooking project that used them. These are my version of Cadbury creme eggs. They are chocolate cups filled with vanilla bean mousse and mango puree. Click here for more on how I made them.

We have started making our own baby food. My sister gave us a Beaba Babycook. It's very easy and convenient.
