Lunch break

Lukas enjoys a bit of down time, watching Ted talks or reading hacking blogs while munching on his lunch. These boys are becoming quite adept at creating tasty and nutritious lunches left-overs in the fridge.

Feast of the unlucky turkey

The weather was too treacherous to join the boys for the fantastic feast. Noah and his patrol were in charge of the mac 'n' cheese.  At least I have a picture, and the boys brought home lots of tasty leftovers!

Wait, this is November!!

It is only November; it is not the time for snow just yet! Well, that is my opinion, and clearly the weather had a different one. And the boys are away, who is going to shovel?

November Hike

Lukas and his patrol set out for a morning hike before getting the food ready for the family feast. The scouts learned the value of a tarp and a rope; the perfect temporary shelter and everyone enjoyed Lukas' gourmet sandwiches. What other patrol gets homemade baguettes for their hiking lunch? They started out in drizzling rain and ended up treading back in snow..

Off they go

Lukas, Noah, and Bob headed out for the Boy Scout November event -the feast of the unlucky turkey. They headed up to the camp on Friday along with the rest of the scouts to prepare for the feast to which all of us parents were invited. They packed the car full with camping gear and food; nobody is going to starve, that's for sure. The temperature dropped as quickly as the boys packed the car... this is going to one chilly feast.

Omelette

Noah proudly displays his breakfast for champions - omelette stuffed with goodness.

Lukas the Bread Baker

Mormor and Morfar gave Lukas a bread baking cookbook this summer. He is about to perfect one of the recipes, moving the dough with spatulas to carefully preserve the large air bubbles that make for crusty, chewy, and delicious gourmet sandwich bread.


cleaning the counter is the hardest part....
