Making green onion pancakes from scratch for the first time ... turned out nice and fluffy.

Monthly haircut time ... we know a barber who sets up shop at our house.  We don't tip so she only spares 5 mins for each of us ;) 

Mom's been busy with her new cleaning supplies from Norwex.   She basically just uses a special cloth and water.  She likes the products so much, she's now a sales consultant.  Let her know if you're interested in learning more.  She cleaned our oven door in less than a minute.
