Is this the 3?

They say things break in 3's.  So hot water heater coil, the oven on Friday and today the dryer.  Oy.  The hot water tank coil was replaced but the same thing is slowly happening again. We found a used stove and picked it up tonight, Eric is sterilizing it now.  Tomorrow we'll try to pick up a dryer from Home Depot.  It's been weird here with no oven. It turns out we use it a LOT.

Lili and Fei were home on the weekend.  I caught this little cooking lesson going on.  Too cute.

Most perfect dog ever. 

Eric and I got Lili a Halloween costume.  She likes it.  It looks good on her.

Michelle and Jenn were over.  Kai was totally delighted to see her then took off to play with Luk and Dagen.  Shannon and Ken were over too. I had planned a lemon bar for Shannon and vegan peach upside down cake for Michelle and Jenn. I called Mom for snack/tea ideas that don't use an oven.  She came up with macaroons and had coconut for me. Yay.  They were easy to make and yummy.  Jia was funny, she doesn't do baked treats but she came to investigate and wanted to know what was in them.  I told her they were basically sweet chocolate oatmeal with coconut.  She ran away horrified we'd see that as a treat. Haha.

Little mister was in trouble and had to endure a day of no screens.  He tackled a 100 piece puzzle.  It took two days and about three hours but he did it.  He had a rough day at school and chose to use his hands as guns AGAIN. Then denied it to us because I called it hand guns and he says it's laser guns.  Outcome is the same. Try to guess how much I despise semantics. He also was chasing Jia and her friends and spitting.  During covid.  So.  Ya.  Fun stuff.  

Oh Poppy. Full if beans one second and then crashed.  

Cowboy TikTok dancing. The kids practiced with Gramma but wouldn't let us take pictures.  So instead Luk took pictures of us.
