Lime-washing the Ceiling
Trent and Ethan white-washing the ceiling. I chose lime-wash, for historical reasons, and also because I wanted to maintain the texture of the old wood.
Ethan wanting to know how many more coats we have to do.
The secret to a good days work: a big country breakfast.
Ethan frying eggs in bacon grease, just like Great Grandpa George used to do.
Trent discovering the charms of a small town paper.
Ethan making hermits from Jennie's vintage cookbook. For your information, a hermit is a spice cookie with currants or nuts. They were so very good.
