We had such a wonderful Spring Break week, the perfect mix of hard work and relaxation.
Our biggest project of the week involved moving the broilers out to pasture. They seem really happy to be out in the sunshine and fresh air and I am super happy to have them out of my garage!
I added these mosquito wipes in my latest Grove order and hope they’ll help when we sit outside at night this summer. I’ll report back.
A new set of eggs in the nest on our porch fan!
I’m reading The Color of Bee Larkham’s Murder (affiliate link) and it is such an original concept. The main character is autistic and has synthesia, which is when sounds evoke sensations of color. I’m not sure what I think of the book as a whole (I’m only about halfway), but it’s so interesting to see life through his eyes.

+ cancelled our Amazon Prime subscription! We weighed the pros and cons ad nauseum, but are really content with our final decision. It doesn’t necessarily mean that we’ll never shop there, but will definitely take away the tantalizing two-day temptations and prompt me to shop small first. And if we find we miss it, we can always sign back up.
+ made a batch of cinnamon sugar apple chips in my new dehydrator. Six hours to make and devoured in minutes! I also made a pitcher of iced peach tea.
+ took a rosary walk and remembered how much I loved it. Why did I ever stop?
+ watched another lecture from a free course I’m taking on the Constitution. Very, very interesting and thought-provoking.
