stonepicnicking_okapiHappy birthday, Sherlock Holmes!
For the past four years, I've made an epiphany tart for Sherlock Holmes's birthday (6 Jan). This year, in the interest of economy, the tart was one flavor: strawberry.
And for Christmas, I got Minor a beeswax candle making kit, thinking it was something we could do together. Yesterday, we made a candle. It wasn't actually as interesting as I'd hoped when I ordered the kit, but, still, it smelled interesting and I made Minor read the booklet about the importance of bees.
