snowy cocoa
Here are two recipes for cocoa from Snowy & Chinook, one with solid chocolate, Melty Chinook Hot Chocolate, and and one with cocoa, Snowy's Cocoa. We like the cocoa for breakfast sometimes. Have it with some healthy breakfast gingerbread and it's perfect for a chilly morning.

new windy web site
Our new web site is up. It's a good place to find out more about our books, crafts and music from the books. We also have a section of free printables from the books that we'll add to over the next year.
See you on Saturday!

owl cabled gloves
I did some sizing adjustments to make a pair of these for a toddler. My pattern notes, materials and sources are here at my notebook.

We're on a mini vacation and I forgot to schedule an activity. However, maybe I can direct saturday visitors to the windy pinboard —

colouring fall leaves
making a truck costume
Halloween is done and dusted for another year. But I know next year there will be a new crop of mums & dads making vehicle costumes out of cardboard boxes and so I put together some notes on ours. It's definitely easier to figure out homemade costumes in this blogging age — we quickly looked at a handful of truck costumes before making our yellow tractor trailer costume and it definitely sped it up.
One thing we did which turned out to be really fun (and useful and safety-ish) was adding headlights, reflectors and headlights. We did the whole thing very cheaply and fairly quickly.
My notes are here. I've put a few more pictures after the jump. As usual Auggie looks very serious while holding still and all the smiling shots are super blurry ^_^
