Here’s what my cousin and I have been up to: (the picture doesn’t show it very well, but they were bigger than our faces.)
Our colossal chocolate chips started as a joke, an extra-large spoonful of dough flung at the cookie sheet by my cousin, Katie. She should have known better than to do that in front of me! I took advantage of Mom’s good mood and plopped down five more blobs and slipped them into the oven before she could change her mind.

Carmen the cow FINALLY had her calf yesterday. My cousin, Katie, named it Brownie. Quite fitting, hm?
Carmen chose the one span of time (which was only about 45 minutes long) that none of the family was around to have the thing. We were a bit frustrated with her, after we had spent the past 2 weeks watching very carefully, noting every possible sign that might hint she was about to give birth. My cousin is an animal lover in the most extreme form, so we were hoping that she could watch too…. Some animals are just like that though, they want their privacy. =)
