Welcome to another thrilling edition of our blog. Since last we wrote, Nicholas and I have had some splendid adventures. Last Saturday we went to the Shaker Woods Festival, a craft show in Columbiana, OH. The festival featured lots of beautiful arts and crafts.

Nicholas was, however, able to capture some of the more interesting exhibits at Shaker Woods.

Since this didn't feel sufficiently festive for one Saturday, when we got back to Cleveland we decided to go to the Greek Festival at the local Greek Orthodox Church. Nicholas enjoyed a variety of Greek delicacies, like gyros, spanakopita, and baklava. Personally, I indulged in their vegetarian and dairy-free alternatives:

We had a fun time listening to the music and watching the young children do their dance routines.
This week in school Nicholas had to hand in his first project. Based on my current understanding it was something vaguely tooth shaped that he created after many hours in the lab.

In spite of his professor's warning that many people do not pass their first project and are often made to redo it in order to obtain a satisfactory grade, Nicholas found out today that he passed with flying colors. (Alternate theory: Professor was consumed by tooth monster shown above)
I, in the mean time, have had a lot of time around the house while Nicholas is at school. I've been making great use of all of the quiet and solitude. It's really given me the chance to work on my writing, like this blog...or my manuscript...
Come to think of it, it's probably a good thing that my semester starts on Tuesday and I'll be out of the house more often. But we have another weekend to enjoy together before the start of the Mandel School's academic year and we're kicking it off with a neighborhood BBQ. We'll be sure to let you know how everything goes
