For the first time, Zuzu was the only Moger scout selling cookies this year. And, did she clean up. 136 boxes. A selling chip off my blockhead.
My princess headed for the ball

Katherine Skye only gets more beautiful. She’s all dressed up for her first Saint Agnes Winter Formal. She and I shopped for the dress together, but the final choice was all her own—yeah, like that’s something new. So worth it to see her looking so stunning.

That testy look has come over Stella

Last Saturday, Stella took her first SAT as part of the Duke Talent Search. She went in at 8am and came out at 12:30pm looking a tad bleary from the experience. Asked about it, Stella told me it was “like taking a really, really big Scantron.”

Zuzu decided she wanted to help me with the cooking this week. So, she got out one of our many kids’ cookbooks and found things she wanted to make.
After pouring over her three-page shopping list covering a dozen dishes, I told her: pick one thing to make per week. This is what she picked.
A double-decker malt. One half vanilla, the other half chocolate–separated by a layer of crushed malt balls. As you can see below, it was a big hit. (Kate chose not to participate.)
