The long weekend

Over the long holiday weekend, we partook in the usual festivities...

We looked at a naked bird before it was fried.

A gingerbread house was built with Busha.

Books were read in the arms of a great-grandmother who doesn't mind reading the same book over and over and over...

Bits of the upcoming holiday began to appear.

We all baked cookies...from scratch.

We watched these 90-year-old hands work magic with flimsy cookie dough.

Sweet treats began to appear.

And many sweet memories were made.
