weekend homework...

we're headed away for a extra-long weekend. fun, sun. water, dirt. for this valley girl, camping is when summer finally becomes authentic. this being our first time with two little ones, i am a bit worried about some of the logistics, but all in all i'm sure things will shape up fine. photos to come!

as for the homework, well, you don't have to make your own whipped cream while i'm away, but if you happen to have cream, sugar and vanilla on hand... well. let's just say i think you should go ahead and do it.

we haven't bought store-bought whipped cream in well over 2 years. really, the homemade version is just that simple--and just that good. make sure to slather it over something delicious! see you soon!

Have fun on your camping trip. We just got back from our first camping trip with the girls (ages 5 and 3, so a bit older than your two), and had a fabulous time. Infact we are already busy planning the next one!

i love homemade whip cream...can't think of the last time i bought the stuff from the store. i need a manual mixer. about five years ago, at my annual christmas party, my mixer broke. my guests passed around the bowl of cream with a whisk, each whisking a while while they chatted. it started out as a catastrophe but ended up a fun labor of love :)
