Happy Birthday!
Things were pretty quiet here over the weekend and that’s never a bad thing. It was a little too cold to get to our outdoor projects and also Sunday was my birthday!
Soooo good. -
Random Wednesday
Well, hello. Welcome, if you are new to these parts, and welcome back if you are a regular. We have been keeping ourselves busy and trying to stay out of trouble.
Jim celebrated a birthday on the weekend. That called for chocolate cake of course.
Happy Birthday Jim!!!! -
Our Kiln has arrived.
Well hello there. Long time no see. Hope you had a great Christmas. Ours was low-key. As of Christmas eve we still had no snow and the lake was mostly open.
Toooo soon -
A typical Weekday
Starting to sound like a broken record here, but more maps headed out the door this week. All of these are the colour choices of the customers.

Another day at the sawmill
On Tuesday, with our house guest gone, we were able to get out to the mill again. While the puppy was here, he wanted no part of our work area. Jim was working with the skidsteer to tidy up the yard and the puppy wasn’t impressed with the noise. I wouldn’t leave him in the house alone, he would only cry and paw at the glass door, so Jim was flying solo.

Weekend Happenings
Good morning on this hot, humid Monday in Nova Scotia. We finally got a little rain but it brought humid conditions with it. We spent Saturday catching up on the little things that haven’t been getting done. Jim worked at a neighbours fixing her windows after ordering the parts a few weeks ago. And this happened…again…

Ready to add fruit mixture For some time now we’ve been enjoying a pound cake type of cake made with yogurt. A while bake I thought of using the cake batter as a base for fruit cake.

A day in the life

Chocolate Yogurt Cake
Experimenting with a tried and true white yogurt cake recipe, I wanted to see if a chocolate version could be done. Here’s a video of the process.
