I have done a horrible job keeping up on this blog lately. I am going to try harder!
Anyway, this week and weekend was great. I took some residents to a Princess Diana exhibit that was cool among many other fun things. For every activity they come to I give them play money and at the end of the month we have an auction. The auction has all kinds of prizes, but basically things they could get at the store but they get to use fake money to pay for it. Toilet paper went for 900 bucks once and a pretty floral scarf for 1200. So the prices are very inflated. I have been preparing for it this afternoon and evening. I shop at the dollar tree and walmart to get things, but this time I am including a homebaked loaf of honey date bread and a sweet strawberry pie. (Brad and I went to a farmer's market last night and got the tastiest strawberries around) I also made 3 pretty beaded chains for the residents to attach their "life alert" pendants on. So it should be a fun afternoon tomorrow.
I also had to make a pie for Brad and me too! Take a look...
That pie looks delicious! And soooooooo ironic that I was just craving a strawberry pie like that yesterday. I wish I could take a slice through the computer:)
