Science Club

What shall we do next, Grandma?
This morning David and I made a poppy seed cake. I was practicing using attachments to a Braun 5in1 machine which I have had for 15 years, but have only used to slice onions.

This morning we used the whippers to beat egg whites, we used the cake paddle to make a poppy seed chiffon cake, and we practiced making ice with another blade twice, once for David and once for his dad.

Now we are going out to plant an apple tree. Having heard Glen say you cannot buy the tree until you dig the hole, we are taking the pick-axe out and our shovels. We are headed out to dig a hole 17 paces away from the pear tree and 5 paces in from the road. In six years we will invite you over for apple pie, the filling grown on our own lot, and the apples cut with the 5in1.
