April is the cruellest month...

Yeah, that rule that you should nap while your kid naps is just silliness.

The reason why she conked out is we took a walk because the sun was nice and bright. I go into the dollar store and find my favorite cotton yarn for a lovely discounted price (yee-haw) and when we come out it's SNOWING.

Dear God, in case you forgot, it's April.
Love, Hannah

haha. Of course, as soon as we hit our doorstep it was clear and sunny. Craziness.

Interview

I have an interview at Dalton today to be an Assistant Teacher for the kindergarten class.

Keep me in your prayers!

Fish Patties

2 pollock filets
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbls. toasted sesame seeds
2 scallions, chopped
2 tbls. panko
1 egg
sesame oil
vegetable oil
salt and pepper

Chop up fish and then mash with back of knife until it is workable. Add rest of ingredients to the fish. Mix with a spoon to prevent the fish from getting too mushy. Heat mixture of sesame and veg. oil. (half and half). Spoon out enough mixture to create 2 inch patties. Fry on medium heat, flattening with spatula to help cook evenly.
DO NOT TURN until each side is DONE, as they are very delicate and will break apart. Enjoy!

So my new thing for the shop is headbands...

I put headaches because I recently rediscovered ginger candy and I have been eating way too much of it, and all that chewing gives me a headache.
