Today I spent a lot of time with the kids. Three+ hours at the local park. A Hindi lesson for Calli. Then home to bake chocolate chip cookies and attempt to turn them into ice cream sandwiches.
The cookies came out great, partly because I used the good chocolate chips and a lot of them. The ice cream sandwiches came out overly squishy, despite using slightly-melty ice cream and saran wrap and putting them in the freezer. That's what you're supposed to do. It's possible that longer in the freezer would have helped, but I think mostly the ice cream was too melty.
I still remember a little from Hindi class last time. But now we have to memorize a fish nursery rhyme for next week, so we'll see how that goes. This class is clearly at a much faster pace than last time. That's probably a good thing. I do still remember the Gayatri Mantra from last time around, so that's nice.
