A Typical Sunday

By Raven

We started out our wonderful Sunday with farm chores at 8:45 (it was pushed back because it’s a weekend) and a brunch made by A.J, Nùria, Yonci and Sam. For brunch we had pancakes, bacon, sausage, vegetarian bacon, and pannakouken also known as Dutch Babies. Everything tasted absolutely wonderful, especially after a harsh taste of the cold whether! Following brunch and the clean up time, we played ping-pong and other games in the basement, and then the whole group went sledding! Everyone gathered sleds from the shed, and headed out to Strawberry Hill. Aside from the long trek up the hill, sledding was highly enjoyable and frankly quite entertaining! Although some people’s sleds had a mind of their own, and plowed straight into thorn bushes, some people had very successful runs, complete with epic high-speed jumps! Also while we were at the hill, we had a visit from Jen, Pippa, Pearl, and Suzie, who distracted us for about fifteen minutes with playing! After Jen and the dogs left, most of us felt tuckered out and decided to head home (not Katy, Yonci or Nùria, they stayed for another half hour!) When we returned, everyone was excited to have ice cream treats and hot cocoa, and to play card games like spoons! After a very long and suspenseful game of spoons that Nùria won, people sort of went their own ways until dinner when we had Spaghetti, bread and carrots. Now it’s time for homework, winding down for the upcoming school week is en route!
