Little House in the Big Woods birthday party this Friday, complete with a fiddlin' Papa, handmade muffs for a walk in the Big Woods behind our Little House, and a feast fit for a half-pint and her sweet cousin: beef roast, graham bread, and creamed carrots (all from The Cookbook), and a peppermint-y pie, because she's our Christmas baby. And it's pink.
Joy-filled pictures to come!
